Brazilian international Raphinha might leave FC Barcelona in the coming months, according to reports from the Spanish press.
The former Stade Rennais star has been shining under the guidance of new BarΓ§a manager Hansi Flick this season. His performances have been nothing short of exceptional, making him a key player for the Catalan giants. As the teamβs most prolific attacker this season, Raphinha has even worn the captainβs armband in the absence of Frenkie de Jong and Marc-AndrΓ© ter Stegenβa testament to Flickβs confidence in his professionalism and leadership qualities.
These standout displays have not gone unnoticed, with major European clubs expressing interest in the winger. Among them, Arsenal appears particularly keen. The Gunners, eager to strengthen their attack, have reportedly identified Raphinha as a priority signing. Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is said to be a huge admirer of the Brazilian and has urged the clubβs hierarchy to do whatever it takes to bring him to North London.
