The brutal data confirming the final 'explosion' of Raphinha

Raphinha culminated a week 'dreamed' with her goal in the classic against Real Madrid. The Brazilian, who had led Bayern Munich three days before with his 'hat-trick', thus reached the 10 goals in all competitions this season, matching his scoring record of the two previous courses in just 14 games.

Portoalegrense crosses its most 'sweet' moment since its landing in the city. In his first year as a Barca footballer (2022/23), the end accumulated ten goals, counting League, Copa del Rey and Europa League (he did not score in the Champions League group stage) and 12 assists in 50 games.

A season later, in 2023/24, Raphinha improved his numbers, since despite adding 10 goals, he managed to give more assistance, reaching the 13 goal passes in 37 games. In addition, he began to give 'spark' of the leader who is today, throwing himself into the team behind the Champions rooms against the PSG with three goals.

Raphinha turned his situation at Barça

Today, the situation of the Brazilian in the city is very different. The player already carries the captain's bracelet and the goals 'fall out of pockets'. The striker has taken a step forward and night after night offers actions, such as his two triplets against Valladolid and Bayern.

He has also shown that he is the ideal piece to complement Barça's attacking trident alongside Lamine Yamal and Robert Lewandowski and his impact transcends the pitch, as he is one of the most respected figures in the dressing room. The Catalans are aware of this, and will therefore begin negotiations to improve his contract in the coming weeks.
