The Brazilian wants to leave Leeds and Barcelona have long been his preferred option ahead of the transfer window swinging open for business.

 

His agent, Deco, has already agreed on personal terms on a contract with Barcelona but the transfer saga has come to a halt due to Barcelona’s financial troubles.

 

 

Leeds want at least €70m before agreeing to sell the attacker but Barcelona are not in a position to spend such a number at this stage of the summer.

 

And according to Catalan daily Mundo Deportivo, Raphinha is not prepared to hang his hat on just Barcelona in the upcoming transfer window.

 

 

The 25-year-old is keen to move on from Leeds and wants to play for a club in the Champions League before the World Cup this winter.

 

Raphinha is being offered to other clubs who could be interested in getting their hands on him.

 

 

Liverpool have been linked with an interest in him and the club are in the market to find a replacement for Sadio Mane who is expected to join Bayern Munich.

 

Leeds are yet to receive an offer and they are not interested in accepting a knock-down fee for Raphinha.
