The identity of this mysterious team has not filtered, but Newcastle had previously expressed an interest in the player’s contractual situation.
Landed in Catalonia last year after the payment of 57 million euros by the Blaugranas, Raphinha seems to have adapted to his new environment since he participated in the La Liga coronation and the conquest of the Spanish Super Cup.
Asked many times about his future, the Auriverde international has always proclaimed his desire to be a long-term member of FC Barcelona.
However, the Saudis are now not the only ones courting the winger since Al Hilal, in search of an offensive replacement after the long unavailability of Neymar, would follow him closely.
