Leeds United attacker Raphinha is reportedly keen to join Barcelona during this summer’s transfer window despite firm interest from Liverpool.
The 25-year-old has again been in impressive form for the Whites during the 2021-22 campaign, scoring nine times and registering three assists in 27 appearances in all competitions.
Raphinha still has more than two years left to run on his contract at Elland Road but is expected to leave the club during this summer’s transfer window.
Liverpool continue to be linked with the Brazil international, while a recent report claimed that Barcelona had made contact with the attacker’s agent to discuss a transfer.
According to Sport, Raphinha is aware of interest from both Liverpool and Bayern Munich but has told his agent to negotiate a summer move to Camp Nou.
The South American has scored 15 goals and registered 12 assists in 59 appearances for Leeds since joining the Whites from Rennes in October 2020.
