If reports are to be believed, Raphinha's agent Deco is in contact with Leeds United in order to help his client join Barcelona this summer.
The news comes just a day after Fabrizio Romano reported that Chelsea had come to an agreement with the Yorkshire club over a potential move. Meanwhile, Arsenal are the only other side to have tabled a bid so far. The Gunners have been rejected on each occasion though, falling short of the valuation.
It's well documented that Raphinha's preferred destination is Barcelona, however. Now, according to Gerard Romero, Barcelona are very much in the race to sign the 25-year-old. He says that the club has a ‘high chance’ of signing the player despite Chelsea's agreement with Leeds due to the strength of Deco's influence and the player's desire.
