Raphinha continues to respond with Barça in her appearances. The Brazilian has been solvent with and without the ball, which will surely make Xavi rethink the immobility that Dembélé had
After seeing marginado of the alignments of Xavi Hernández during good part of the season 2022/23, the injury of Ousmane Dembélé has opened the doors wide open to new opportunities for Raphinha. In spite of a doubtful principle when filling the drop of the French, the international with the 'Canarinha' has come showing solvent and giving clear signals of his adaptation to the diagram of game.
Of this way, the Brazilian has begun to show a good level, what would carry him to litigate him the square to the leading Frenchman, leaving like this sideways the rumours that aimed him like one of the possible exits of the Barcelona team during the next window estival of transfers by not justifying the investment that the Barça did in his moment to bring him from the Leeds United.
Raphinha, key piece in the attack of the Barça
Now, the Brazilian has answered in front of the work that has been him entrusted with the injury of the 'Mosquito', being essential to keep the good results that today have to the Barcelona team with a comfortable advantage in LaLiga. Already they are 12 the points that separate them of the Real Madrid, and to keep the rhythm is very possible that the culés sing the alirón with several days of anticipation.
At present, Raphinha is the most dangerous attacker of the team of Xavi Hernández, consolidating as the escudero of Robert Lewandowski in the offensive section, and being at present the maximum second goleador of the team in the course. The Brazilian has showed like a formidable piece in offensive works so much with the balloon as without him, by what the míster will have to think seriously in how will be his 'XI' of face to the following key crashes in the season.
Xavi will have to reflexionar after the stop
Although it is important that Raphinha was beginning to answer with his presence in the field, the situation could generate some doubts for the trainer, that surely will have to meditar on who will occupy this band once that the French was recovered and in conditions to go back to the field. It is possible that the stop of selections allow him win time to be again 'to tope'.
