Raphinha's great start to the season is not going unnoticed by anyone. The winger has established himself as one of the top figures of FC Barcelona, scoring 6 goals and providing 5 assists in the first 11 games of the season. A performance that, in addition, has been transferred to the Brazilian national team, where he celebrated a double last Tuesday in the 4-0 win over Peru in the South American qualifiers.
For this reason, his name is already beginning to be seen at the centre of rumours that place him outside Barcelona. Last summer, clubs such as Newcastle and Manchester United tried to sign him, but none of their offers met Barça's demands. However, the proposal sent by Al-Hilal was up to the expectations of the Catalans, although in this case it was the player himself who ruled out his arrival at the Asian club.
Al-Hilal are back on the attack for Raphinha
Despite the player's refusal, the team managed by Jorge Jesus is not 'throwing in the towel' and would continue to insist on his landing in the Saudi Pro League. This is reported by 'El Nacional.cat', where they assure that the institution has already contacted his agent to try to convince him to leave the Blaugrana club.
In fact, to achieve this objective, the Arabs have put on Raphinha's table an offer of 50 million euros net per year. Despite the figure being 'astronomical', it seems difficult that the player will decide to leave Barça in the midst of his best moment since his arrival in Barcelona, where he has also regained his smile under the orders of Hansi Flick and his objective is to return the club to the path of victory.
