Raphinha was the subject of ongoing speculation regarding a potential departure from Barcelona during the summer, however, he ultimately opted to remain at the club.
This decision has proven to be advantageous, as he has started the season strongly, scoring numerous goals and recently assuming the captaincy role.
In a recent report by Relevo, Raphinha turned down various offers from the Premier League and Saudi Arabia to remain at FC Barcelona.
Al Nassr and Al Hilal made appealing offers to acquire his services, but he turned them down. Chelsea’s interest in signing Raphinha was evident when he departed Leeds United for Barcelona.
However, despite the potential for increased financial incentives, Raphinha chose to remain at his current club. Under the guidance of Hansi Flick, he has significantly improved his performance.
