According to Diario Sport, Barca and the Brazilian have agreed on a price and parameters for a five-year contract. Raphinha has determined that he wants to join Barcelona and is not interested in hearing from other clubs.
With Ousmane Dembele poised to go on a free transfer, Xavi has backed the signing, and Raphinha knows he has a potential to be a regular.

The first bid for him from Barcelona was turned down by the Leed United. However, Raphinha is pleased with the amount of money he will receive at Barca. The footballer has even stated that he will turn down any additional offers he receives in the following months.
