Barça and Raphinha could soon come together to renew the contract of the '11'. The player does not want to leave and the club would be open to 'tying him down'

After seeing his future in doubt for much of the last transfer market, Raphinha has established himself as one of the best footballers of today. The Brazilian has finished 'exploding' under the orders of Hansi Flick and is one of the leading figures of the Barça team at the start of this season, where he has scored 10 goals and 7 assists in 14 games.

Although he could have left Barcelona during the summer, where Al-Hilal offered up to 100 million euros for his transfer, the footballer has always remained firm in his position to continue wearing the Barça shirt since he feels very comfortable at the club. In fact, his intention is to continue in the long term and at Can Barça there is no doubt that he will end up renewing his contract.

Barça will attend to his file soon

Raphinha's contract ends in June 2027, so his file is behind other more 'urgent' ones such as those of Gavi, Pedri, Araujo or De Jong, whose commitments expire in 2026. However, the culés, led by Deco, are aware of the plans of the Porto Alegrense and know that he wants to make his mark at the Spotify Camp Nou, which is why they will 'tie him down' calmly in the future.

According to 'SPORT', the club already has the 'OK' from the winger, who, in addition, will soon be a community member. The Brazilian has taken on stripes and is now one of the captains on and off the pitch. His salary is one of the highest in the squad, and the culés want to keep the wage bill under control, but although an increase seems difficult, his emoluments would increase depending on objectives.

Beyond this, the truth is that the Catalan club is aware of the importance of Raphinha in the team and they know that, if he maintains this performance, they are candidates for everything. For this reason, the signing of the player in his new contract is beginning to be a priority in Barcelona, where the player does not intend to leave.
