Arsenal is allegedly ready to make an offer of up to €90 million to sign Barcelona winger Raphinha because of how well he has played this season.
The Brazil international took a while to get used to Barcelona after moving there from Leeds a few years ago, but he’s now one of their best players.
Raphinha has scored 12 goals and set up 8 others in 17 games across all tournaments for Barcelona this season. Likely, they won’t want to let him go any time soon.
He is the kind of player Arsenal likes to sign. BIG named a player tipped to move to Arsenal!
There is still a chance that Arsenal could offer a lot of money—up to €90 million—to try to get Raphinha to leave Barcelona.
The story also says that Barcelona sees Raphinha as a very important player. It’s not clear how realistic this goal is for the Gunners, but fans will like the effort.
Arsenal could move up a level if they sign Raphinha.
Arsenal hasn’t been at their best this season, but Raphinha seems like just the thing they need to take it to the next level under Mikel Arteta.
The Spanish manager has put together a strong defense and middle for Arsenal, but they rely too much on Bukayo Saka in attack and don’t have another player who can really spark them in close games.
Raphinha fits the description of the type of player they want, and the 27-year-old has already done well in the Premier League, when he played for Leeds.
Fans of AFC will be desperately hoping that their club does everything they can to make this happen. Raphinha should be able to fit in and start making a mark right away.
A few months ago, Sport also said that Raphinha was linked with Manchester United. However, those rumors have since died down.
