Raphinha has failed to secure a place in the starting XI as a result of injuries and the emergence of Lamine Yamal. The brilliance of the 16 years old as meant the Brazilian has had to play second fiddle in a role which he would have pictured for himself as a result of the departure of Ousmane Dembele in the summer.
The fate of Raphinha rests on the shoulders of Deco and the new manager. The Barcelona Sporting Director who was key to the arrival of the Brazilian winger back in 2022 has told the media about a revamp of the squad which the club is willing to embark on come the summer window making the sale of Raphinha a likely possibility.
However the incoming manager is expected to have the final say on any departure as he alongside the sporting department headed by Deco will make an evaluation of the current squad come the summer.
