Leeds United supporters believe that the initial reported first bid for Raphinha from Barcelona is too low and are hoping to receive a lot more than that fee if he is to be sold this summer. According to reports relayed by SportsWitness, the La Liga side have submitted a £35million bid for the winger, who now see him as their prime target.
It is also said that the two parties have agreed in principal a salary agreement that would result in the player moving to the Nou Camp on a five-year deal. Valued by the club at closer to £70m, the 25-year-old has found the net nine times in 28 appearances so far this season whilst also contributing three assists.
In what is perhaps a sneak preview of what to expect this summer, these initial reports have been followed up by a missive from Fabrizio Romano on Twitter, who claims that Barca have been working on a deal for Raphinha 'for weeks'. He also says the Brazilian would welcome to move to Catalonia but no talks have been held between the clubs. yet.
