According to emerging reports, Barcelona has received a €65 million offer for Raphinha from a Saudi Arabian club, but the player is not interested in moving to Saudi Arabia.
Newcastle United has made initial inquiries about Raphinha but has yet to submit an official bid. Convincing Raphinha to leave Barcelona could be challenging.
However, with Barcelona open to offloading him to raise funds for new signings, a return to the Premier League might be on the cards if Newcastle can meet the financial demands and persuade the player.
