Rafinha is a target for Newcastle United in the summer window, according to reports. The €58m Barcelona outer wing may not seem like a major sale for the Catalans. However, they are aware of growing interest from Premier League sides which could force them to cash in. Manchester City tröja 2023

Since realizing his dream to move to Barcelona last summer, Rafinha has performed mediocre this season. There was a three-way competition for the outside wing, with the Catalan giants, Arsenal and Chelsea vying for his signature. In the end, he chose his favorite club, and Barcelona paid Leeds United about 58 million euros.

Despite his mediocre form this season, Barcelona are happy with the Brazilian and want him to stay with them for the foreseeable future. However, their current financial situation requires a €20m cut to the wage bill and at least €100m through player transfers.

While Rafinha is not among those seen as excess demands, Barcelona are still aware of growing interest from Premier League sides, including Arsenal and Chelsea. They may look at the rest of the squad before making a move for the Brazilian, although a move could materialize.

First of all, if Barcelona decide to sell Rafinha, they will definitely try to profit from the 58 million euro investment. Only a handful of clubs can pay top dollar for the 26-year-old outside wing. Newcastle United are seen as one of them, with Eddie Howe eager for the Brazilian. Newcastle United were interested in him when he was at Leeds United, but knew the player was more inclined to join Barcelona. Teams will have the opportunity to make contact before the summer window. They may even play in the Champions League next season, which is a big factor in attracting top talent.

Rafinha certainly hopes to stay in Barcelona. But if the Reds decide to sell him, he could return to the Premier League. Although he will ask for a higher transfer fee, Newcastle United may make a more ideal offer. Billiga Fotbollströjor

Howe will evaluate the prospects of current outside wings Allan San-Maximin and Miguel Almiron. One or both of them could leave St James' Park in the summer, meaning they hope to have significant replacements in place. They have been linked to many other well-known players. However, if Rafinha becomes available, they will go all out to sign the 58 million euro Barcelona winger.
