As it has informed the journalist Achraf Ben Ayad, the first offer from Saudi Arabia by the right extreme culé would not have convinced of the all to the Barça. It fits to stand out that it has not trascended the mount offered neither the club that contributes it. Basing us in past informations regarding this player, the offer could have been of To the Hilal, club that trascended does days that had a strong interest in the Brazilian and the mount could be around the 40-50 million euros, something totally far to the 80 million euros that supposedly was had to offer the Newcastle of the Premier League.

The combined Barcelona has in the ex player of the Leeds one of his active more attractive in case that it decided to sell it. Transfermarkt Values it in 60 million euros, but from the club, probably look for to take out a lot of more. The player, that said was in passing is happy and engaged with the discipline blaugrana, has agreement with the square of the City Condal until 2026 and a clause of rescission of 1000 million euros. To leave it go, has to arrive an offer of the 'fat' first, by the quality of the player and second because the entity culé still has to amortise part of the mount of his traspaso from the English team, some 40 millions to be precise.

Raphinha Already finds working from the past Monday in the Ciutat Esportiva of Sant Joan Despí. Will have a hard competition in this season, since the lane where exerts has more than a candidate to use it, as it is the case of Ousmane Dembélé, Ez Abde and even Ansu Fati and Ferran Torres. Although the player always has showed will to be still in the Barcelona, expressing always with questions eat: "I will be still in the Barça the season that comes and the one who comes, and the one who comes, have a lot of years of agreement and expect to fulfil these years and many more", and Xavi would be betting by his continuity, all the parts are conscious of the volatility of the market and know that if it arrives a tempting offer that 'seduce' so much to the player as to the club, could be a feasible operation. It will be necessary to see if the interest of the Arabs is sufficient to do a proposal in conditions.

It will be the To the Hilal in conditions to do a big offer by Raphinha?
