Man Utd and Newcastle to fight for Barcelona forward signing

Newcastle and Manchester United are set to enter the race to sign Barcelona star in 2025, per reports in England.

Football365 has reported that both Newcastle and Manchester United have made offers for Barcelona winger Raphinha.

Newcastle’s interest in Raphinha is not new, as links to him date back to his time at Leeds United before joining Barcelona.

Despite his success at Barcelona, rumors of his possible departure have circulated, leading to speculation of a bid from Newcastle. Recent reports suggest that Newcastle has submitted a €60 million (£50 million) offer for the 27-year-old winger.

Manchester United has also made an approach, however, their bid of €55 million (£46 million) was inadequate, as it includes €10 million in performance-related add-ons.
