Raphinha has his admirers as a Leeds United exit potentially looms this summer, with Chelsea said to be one club that holds an interest in the Brazil international.
Leeds have so far retained Raphinha, although the transfer window is still at an early stage.
Barcelona have been driving the main speculation, yet there are domestic clubs starting to show an interest in the winger.
As per The Athletic, Arsenal and Tottenham have a genuine interest in Raphinha, as do Chelsea.
However, in the latter’s case, they are actually working on a deal for Ousmane Dembele, seemingly focusing on the 25-year-old rather than Raphinha as he prepares to leave Barcelona.
Raphinha scored 11 goals for Leeds last season in the Premier League, registering a further three assists for Marcelo Bielsa and then Jesse Marsch.
Should Leeds cash in on Raphinha this summer?
Yes
No
You’d think that if Chelsea are prioritising Dembele and do end up landing the winger’s signature, their interest in Raphinha won’t go any further.
There’s obviously still Arsenal and Tottenham in the mix to sign the 25-year-old this summer, whilst Barcelona won’t go away.
Right now, you do feel like Barcelona still feel the most likely club to sign the winger, they just need to get their house in order and move some players on.
However, if they don’t, Leeds won’t be short of offers for Raphinha domestically, with his performances lighting up the Premier League for the best part of two seasons now.
