As the January deal window gets closer, people are once again talking about Raphinha’s future.
It was said that the famous Barcelona player would be leaving Catalonia this summer. Spurs are interested in him right now because they want to improve their offensive choices.
Raphinha also makes Ahlul interested.
But a story from SPORT says that Saudi Arabia might be able to get Raphinha before Tottenham does.
This is because Al Hilal, one of the biggest teams in Saudi Arabia, is thinking about trading Raphinha before the January transfer market opens.
Raphinha is reportedly trying to get Al Hilal to sign someone to replace Neymar, who hurt himself badly and won’t be back until next season.
Someone else whose name has been linked to a move to Al Hilal is Victor Osimhen. But Raphinha might be a good choice for the Saudi leaders.
How Barcelona feels about Raphinha
With the way things are now, Barcelona doesn’t need to get rid of Raphinha just yet.
Because Ansu Fati, Ousmane Dembele, and Ez Abde all left in the summer, the team doesn’t have many attackers left, this shouldn’t be a surprise.
When the economy gets bad, though, Barcelona might have to let go of the Brazilian international.
After all, it will be hard for the team to find a replacement for the injured Gavi, which means Barcelona may need to add more midfielders in January.
Raphinha, on the other hand, likes living in Barcelona. But if the Catalans want the forward to be a helpful attack weapon in the future, he needs to start acting quickly on his chances.
