At that point, no one thought Raphinha would get so good that he would become Barcelona’s most important player this season. Fans have already forgotten about Williams’s failed attempt because they are very interested in seeing Raphinha keep playing at the same high level.
So, Barcelona would be breaking the rules if they sold the 27-year-old star player who is in great shape, especially in January when Arsenal was said to have made a €90 million offer. The Gunners have been interested in Raphinha for a long time, even when he was at Leeds United. They need a top-level striker.
But the Catalans don’t want to sell the 27-year-old star player in January, especially not for €90 million. Earlier reports said Barcelona wanted at least €100 million to even think about letting the Brazilian go, and they might not change their mind if they ever need to sell the winger.
It is not likely that Raphinha will leave Barcelona in January.
It will be the player’s choice that gets the most attention, even though Arsenal is interested and Barcelona needs to sell. Raphinha turned down offers to stay with the Catalans in the summer, and he will stick to that choice even if rumors of a move keep going around.
It’s his dream club, and Raphinha is very happy with his life there right now. Barcelona would be happy with an offer from Arsenal or anyone else, but the 27-year-old player is likely to say no to the move because he wants to stay in Catalonia.
The rumored €90 million offer from Arsneal for the in-form Brazilian attacker Raphinha will be turned down by Barcelona before the January transfer market opens.
