Mikel Arteta is keen to add depth to his attack this summer and the addition of the winger would provide plenty of diversity in his attacking options.

The Blaugrana have a long tradition of playing home to the world’s top Brazilian talents. But allowing their star man to sign for a Premier League rival should come with an ‘English transfer premium’. The Blaugrana have until July 31 to address their FFP limitations. But with Barcelona struggling with their finances, the fee has remained a sticking point in negotiations. Their prospects of a deal appear more solid, though it’s suggested they will need to move on Nicolas Pepe first. But retaining his services beyond this summer looks a tall order for Leeds. As per Fabrizio Romano, he has had an agreement in place with Barcelona for months.

The Spanish giants, however, have failed to match Leeds’ financial demands and Raphinha is growing tired of waiting for them to secure a deal.

Barca have spent months considering Raphinha as a replacement for Ousmane Dembele - who will almost certainly leave the Camp Nou when his contract expires at the end of June - but are still yet to approach Leeds with a formal offer. A last-minute winner from Jack Harrison helped ensure their top-flight status, in a final day shootout that saw Burnley drop into the Championship.

Leeds winger Raphinha is set to join Arsenal, to the disappointment of Liverpool, Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea.
With Sadio Mane on his way to Bayern and Mohamed Salah stalling on a new deal, they may be in the market for a new forward, and Raphina would’ve represented a very astute reinforcement in this area. Raphinha has been heavily linked with a move to Barcelona this summer and this has previously been reported to be the playmaker’s preferred destination. However, according to Goal Espana, Arsenal are said to be on the verge of signing the 25-year-old after making a more attractive offer to the Yorkshire based club.

Alexandre Lacazette has now left the club to join Lyon on a free transfer, and Eddie Nketiah is their last remaining striker after signing a new deal. I think we mentioned before the game that he’s been involved in seven goals in the last eight games, so he’s always a huge threat and that’s always telling when your teammates know from one training session. And they don't often agree when debating matters on Sky Sports, but Carragher echoed Neville's views, as he analysed Raphinha's performances.
ARSENAL have earmarked Leeds winger Raphinha as a potential summer signing.
The addition of Vieira will provide important competition and creativity to Arteta’s midfield options. It comes after the Premier League prematurely published a profile page for the 22-year-old in its website. That could give Arsenal plenty of competition if they want to sign the player, for whom Leeds paid £25million in 2020. Arsenal have not made significant developments on a transfer for Leeds ace Raphinha despite holding a firm interest in signing the Brazilian, Express Sport understands. Porto playmaker Fabio Vieira will likely be announced as a Gunners player in the coming days. Raphinha’s 11 Premier League goals were a key reason behind Leeds remaining in the top-flight last term.

The agent of Raphinha was spotted in London today amid serious rumours over a potential move to Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium.
Reports also suggest that Arsenal are keeping their focus on signing Raphinha and Gabriel Jesus as Youri Tielemens is seen as a less-competitive transfer. If that is the case, this one may drag on a little longer as Barcelona will likely need to raise some funds before making a big-money move. Monday 20 June, saw the rumours really hot up but sources close to the club are yet to make confirm any serious movement.
ARSENAL are said to be closing in on a summer move for Leeds United winger Raphinha.
The Spaniard recently admitted that it would be difficult to compete with other top English clubs in their efforts to land new players, though, due to the increasingly competitive nature of the summer market. It is said that Arsenal have offered a higher salary than the Catalan giants, who have already settled on personal terms with Raphinha but have been reluctant to meet Leeds' asking price. A fee of around £43million will reportedly be needed to tempt Leeds into selling the Brazilian forward and it seems as though Arsenal could be preparing to meet their demands over the coming days.
Fabrizio Romano has shared the response of Leeds United as Barcelona try and lowball their way to an agreement for Raphinha this summer.
He reached an agreement with Barcelona on personal terms, so Raphinha has an agreement. “Leeds are super happy, of course with staying in the Premier League, but also with Raphinha’s value because now they are not going to accept €40million. When they see rumours about €40million for Raphinha, they say it’s absolutely impossible to sell for that fee for a fantastic player.” The reliable journalist has insisted that the Whites believe it is “impossible” to sell the Brazilian for only €40million [£34.3m] after staying in the Premier League.

Tottenham and Arsenal are ready to battle Barcelona for Raphinha in a transfer tug-of-war that could see Leeds demand up to £60million for the Brazil ...
Both north London clubs are keen to do their transfer business early this summer. Raphinha has two years left on his Leeds contract but is ready to leave Elland Road ahead of the World Cup this winter. But Barcelona's financial situation complicates matters and their move has stalled because they are unable to fund a deal.
Leeds United will face increasing pressure this week over the sale of Raphinha, with Arsenal intensifying their interest in the Brazilian star.
While not yet linked with a move to Elland Road, Leeds would be shrewd to go back to Rennes for Jeremy Doku - the man signed by the French club to replace Raphinha in 2020. A fast and skillful dribbler with an impeccable first touch, Lang likes to pick up possession to feet and run at opposition defenders. Multiple wide forwards / wingers have already been linked with a move to Elland Road and those rumours are set to intensify as the sale of Raphinha looks more likely. Club Brugge winger Noa Lang has been a target at Elland Road for some time now, and there’s good reason for that. Valued at around £8.5million, Plata could prove a snip compared to the £40-50million potentially coming in, but that of course comes with its own risk. But their hesitance to meet Leeds’ valuation has opened the door for top Premier League sides to flash some cash of their own.
The Whites pair of Kalvin Phillips and Raphinha have caught the attention of some of Europe's biggest clubs.
It’s not Leeds’ job to do the hard yards, they can say ‘we don’t want to sell the players. "They don’t want to sell these players, so it’s incumbent on them who buy them to do the hard yards. That’s what Leeds have to do and what Radrizzani has to achieve. Valuations of either player have ranged from £40-70million - or a low as £35million if you’re Barcelona - but the Whites look to remain stubborn in their demands. "Given they escaped relegation by the skin of their teeth, clearly they need to improve.” Jordan said on TalkSPORT . “We know they’ve been disadvantaged with some key players being out for much of the season, but so did other clubs. Raphinha’s situation is a little more complex, with long-time links to Barcelona going quiet amid a surprise approach from Arsenal - Tottenham and Chelsea are also keen.

But Tottenham are ready to hijack the deal after allegedly making contact with the Leeds star. But Leeds may be reluctant to hold talks with the Blues due to their historic rivalry. ARSENAL are reportedly hoping to sign Raphinha with the help of new capture Fabio Vieira.
Arsenal believe the imminent £34million signing of Fabio Vieira from Porto could help them land Leeds United winger Raphinha this summer.
The relationship Arsenal have built up with Gestifute and Mendes during the talks to sign Vieira could now play a big role in deciding Raphinha’s next club, while the speed and professionalism with which the Gunners agreed a deal with Porto is also valued highly – particularly compared to how protracted talks with Barcelona have been. However, Barca remain in the race and Raphinha has made it clear he is willing to wait to see if the Catalan giants do eventually stump up the cash required to sign him, while Tottenham are also keeping tabs on the situation. According to The Telegraph, there is a feeling around the north London club that the smooth nature of their deal for Vieira could be a big boost to their hopes of signing Raphinha – with both players represented by the same agency, Gestifute.
