Tottenham are in touch with Raphinha’s camp ahead of a possible summer approach, with Barcelona ready to study offers.
According to Relovo, Tottenham are keen on signing Raphinha and have been in touch with the 27-year-old’s camp. A summer approach could be forthcoming from Spurs, with Barcelona willing to study incoming offers for the Brazilian winger.
Tottenham are interested in Raphinha
Raphinha was the subject of interest for many Premier League clubs when there were rumours of Barcelona willing to sell the winger. Yet, the Brazilian did not want to move about and still has no interest in leaving the Catalan side.
Yet, with Barcelona’s precarious financial state, another round of rumours might emerge in the summer, and this time, things could get a bit concrete. Raphinha has not nailed down a place in the starting lineup this term, with teenage talent Lamine Yamal emerging as his potential competitor.
The youngster’s rise has seen Raphinha’s game time reduced, which could spark another round of speculation about an imminent exit. The Catalans are ready to study offers for the Brazilian, with Tottenham ready to reignite their interest, which was relevant some months ago.
Spurs are reportedly in contact with the 27-year-old’s camp over a potential summer approach. Tottenham is not short of attackers, especially after their outlay on a few over the last two windows. Still, they might look at Raphinha as an opportunistic signing rather than a necessity.
Barcelona could sell Raphinha
Barcelona’s financial situation would ideally put many of their top stars on the market in a bid to achieve a hefty transfer fee. The Catalans had reportedly placed a €100 million price tag on the 27-year-old winger, amid some Premier League showing acute interest.
Saudi sides are also keen on the winger, with those in the Middle East likely to offer a sizeable fee if they feel the Brazilian could be signed. However, Raphinha will have set the target to stay put at Barcelona. However, the Catalan side might see the wisdom in selling him now that they have a readymade replacement found internally rather than having to spend any money.
