Although they defeated Norwich in the last match, with a goal in overtime, the Leeds United team is in a great fight for survival in the Premier League.
Four points separate them from Watford, who is first below the line. However, according to the English media, their best player and bearer of the game is getting closer to a career transfer.
Raphinha, a 25-year-old winger, is a target for Liverpool and Barcelona, reports Fabrizio Romano. The Catalans have reportedly already negotiated a potential transfer, but there have been no concrete offers yet.
The Spanish media also allude to the fact that the team from Camp Nou is the main favorite to sign the Brazilian, whose quality of play has currently dropped significantly, in line with the form of the entire team. Raphinha’s contract expires in the summer of 2024, but it is more than clear that she will leave Elland Road much earlier.
Much will depend on the status of Leeds United, that is, whether they will play in the Championship next season, or will survive in the elite.
