Barcelona winger Raphinha has angrily rubbished claims he is open to leaving Barcelona amid reported interest from the likes of Newcastle United and Chelsea.
Raphinha has been heavily linked with a move to Tyneside of late, with Spanish outlet Sport this week claiming the former Leeds United man had 'given the OK' for Barcelona to tout his services. The publication suggests £80m is the price for his signature this summer amid interest from the Magpies.
Fanatico Sport Futebol, an Instagram account with over one million followers, this week shared the Sport speculation on their social media channels, prompting an angry response from Raphinha himself in their comments section. "Lies. The person who said this is a liar and uninformed," the Brazilian commented.
