How do you say with such certainty?
Yes!
Raphina still has a market in EPL for him, because of his Leeds times, that will pay 60 m at least (as much as we spent). Man UTD Chelsea and Newcastle ALL would want him to fill RW needs in their squad
And needless to say he will play much better for them I am sure compared to the terrible shitty nights he gives under Xavi
A good squad planning needs a good sale in the summer to get the promising U-23s (Nico, Moscardo, register Roque). He is the only saleable asset that we can force out
That's what almost all media are saying.

Raphina statistics are not impressive this year. He will be 27 next month. He scored only 2 goals and provided 3 assists in 11 games. Only Premier League clubs can pay his current wages of 235,000 euros per week. Raphina could be very good signing for Manchester United, Tottenham and Newcastle United.

Not a big fan of him but I'm still calm because he was injured and lacks rhythm. Very unbrazilian winger when it comes to dribbling, yet he still managed to contribute quite a bit last season and I'm optimistic he can provide that again. Second season is always a deciding one if someone makes it at a club or not.
Let's be honest, 60M is too much for him in the old market, but with these highly inflated prices that's like 15-20M back then. Back when everyone made big eyes when Barca spent 40M on a high-flying David Villa.
Don't get me wrong, if a good offer close his market value comes in Barca should consider it and even take it, but it's not as easy at it sounds to get a proper replacement. Lamine still needs some years to develop behind a starter and maybe Raphinha can provide these years.
We could argue club should have spent Torres + Raphinha millions on one proper elite winger, but who could you get realistically in club's financial situation back then? Even the more expensive ones aren't a sure bet as seen with Sancho, although that kinda could've been expected as he always lacked pace for an elite player.

Great game again with Brazil. We have signed a clutch (sorry choke) player.

he's so ass
Just had a thought and going to derail the thread.
With Gavi down, Porto would probably loan us back Nico Gonzalez.
Watched first half of the game vs Argentina. Brazil did very well in keeping possession in first part of the match, but whenever it reached Raphinha they lost the ball lol.
