During the last international break, rumours of Leeds United's star forward, Raphinha moving to Barcelona were rife. Barcelona's president, Joan Laporta even mentioned the Brazilian in an interview with Spanish media as a player that club were interested in.
However, on Tuesday, Laporta said that his side would not need a 'superstar' signing this summer. At a book launch with Ansu Fati, Laporta claimed that it was the presence of Fati amongst the Barca squad which meant they would not need a major transfer. The teenager has returned to training after a long struggle with injuries in recent times and it is hoped that he will play a major role for the Blaugrana next season.
"We already have the best, Ansu Fati. We hope to see him play soon," said Laporta as per Spanish journalist Alex Pintanel when asked if he would be signing a superstar this summer.
