Barcelona winger Raphinha is back in the spotlight with fresh transfer speculation. This week, intermediaries have once again reached out to Raphinha to gauge his interest in a move to the Saudi Pro League in August. The Brazilian star has firmly reiterated that his priority is to remain at Barcelona.
Recent reports suggest that Barcelona has received a €65 million offer from a Saudi club, though the specific team has not been identified. Earlier, Al-Hilal showed interest in Raphinha, but it’s unclear if they are behind the current bid. According to Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona considers the offer relatively low, but recognizes it could provide a significant financial boost.
In contrast, Diario Sport reports a €100 million bid from Al-Nassr, who hope to pair Raphinha with Cristiano Ronaldo and Sadio Mane. Despite these offers, Raphinha has consistently expressed his desire to stay at Barcelona.
However, the forward’s future at the club remains uncertain. Barcelona is still aiming to sign players like Nico Williams and Dani Olmo, which could potentially make Raphinha surplus to requirements. Additionally, with key players like Ronald Araujo and Frenkie de Jong currently injured, Raphinha’s situation might become a focal point in the transfer window.
