The Saudi Arabian club Al-Nassr wants to buy Barcelona player Raphinha.
Raphinha, from Brazil, has scored 20 goals and made 25 assists in 87 games since he joined from Leeds United in the summer of 2022.
Last season, he scored 10 goals and made 13 assists in 37 matches. Only Robert Lewandowski did better for Barcelona.
Even though Raphinha had a good season, there are rumors he might leave this summer. He still has three years left on his contract.
Barcelona might sell Raphinha to get new players like Nico Williams from Athletic Bilbao and Dani Olmo from RB Leipzig.
A report says that Newcastle United, Arsenal, and Aston Villa are interested in Raphinha. Clubs in the Saudi Pro League also want him.
According to Sport, Al-Nassr is ready to offer €100 million (£84.6 million) for Raphinha. Al-Nassr already has star players like Cristiano Ronaldo, Aymeric Laporte, Marcelo Brozovic, and Sadio Mane.
But Raphinha wants to stay with Barcelona and join their pre-season tour in the United States.
Barcelona has already received a €65 million (£55 million) offer from another Saudi club, Al-Hilal, but they turned it down. They might sell if they get an offer of about €90 million (£76.2 million).
If Raphinha moves to Al-Hilal, he would join players like Neymar, Ruben Neves, Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, Renan Lodi, and Aleksandar Mitrovic.
