The season 23/24 of Raphinha in the FC Barcelona has not been the most hit. The native of Carry Cheerful has suffered a pair of injuries that have done him lose a total of 11 commitments with the elastic Barcelona. Besides, when it has been able to see action, has not reached the registers expected, adding grieve four annotations and seven assistances in 20 meetings and 992 minutes of game. These figures seem insufficient from the perspective of the club for a player of the that expected an elder exert goleador, especially if it values the fact that, after the exit of Ousmane Dembélé in the last market estival, gave a necessary step forward, but unfortunately has not attained it of effective way.
The '11' culé also has confronted another big 'problem' in this period: the irruption of Lamine Yamal like this right extreme desequilibrante that expected to have the cast blaugrana. The '27' has transformed in one of the gratas surprises of the Barcelonan square in this season, having converted three annotations and contributed five passes to goal in 31 duels contested. Further of this, has showed to be a lethal tool in the attack of the Catalan club, contributing freshness and a wide range of skills that include speed, dribbling, atrevimiento to confront to the rivals, skill to happen and finish, and enjoys of an excellent capacity of taking of decisions. At present, it has positioned like one of the main offensive references of the Barça, what suggests that it could turn into the definite owner of the right extreme.
Raphinha, candidate to sale next summer for the Barça?
Precisely, the fact that Lamine was winning increasingly 'weight' in the team generates another problem for Raphinha, the one who could see reduced his opportunities of game when it return of his injury. Aunado To this, considering the good moment of the espluguense and his promising future, the Barcelona could be considering his options regarding the portoalegrense, since the ex of the Leeds is one of the active of the club that probably have more market and could receive a very attractive offer. Therefore, the Barça could be had to listen the proposals of other clubs interested in purchasing his services.
It costs to remember that in the last days has mentioned the possibility that the Catalan square initiate a necessary sportive restructuring, based in keeping to the players of the quarry and offer them continuity. In this context, the Barcelona could consider the possibility to make important sales, and one of them could be Raphinha, the one who the past market estival woke up interest in clubs of the Premier League like Chelsea FC, the Newcastle and the Tottenham, and even in the To the-Hilal of Neymar Jr. Of Saudi Arabia, that showed wishes to do with the extreme and was had to make an attractive offer.
In this sense, it will be necessary to expect to see if the FC Barcelona decides to bet by the sale of Raphinha, the one who arrived to the club in 2022 by a fixed quantity of 57 million euros, more variable, and still remain him three years of agreement. Nevertheless, will have to evaluate how it recovers the Brazilian of his injury and how finishes the season. Equally, will have to consider the offers that arrive to the Barça by a player whose value of market according to 'Transfermarkt' is of 50 M€, turning it into the sixth more valuable player of the staff culé, and by which apparently would be in position to ask a bit more than that mount. It will be necessary to value if other clubs would be had to equalise this bet.
