Raphinha will be sold to Chelsea by Leeds for €75 million

Sources in Tier 1 David Ornstein and Fabrizio Romano say that Raphinha has been fully traded between Chelsea and Leeds United. This is a big setback for Barcelona's plans to sign new players.

She didn't start running until it was too late. At first, they wanted Raheem Sterling and Ousmane Dembele to improve their offense, but when they offered €70–75 million, the Lilywhites agreed.

Barcelona called Leeds again about Raphinha, but Chelsea's offer was too high for Barcelona to beat. Even more so because Ousmane Dembele, who hasn't decided what he wants to do with his life, is tied to the Blaugranas' renewal.

Still, the Blues and Raphinha haven't settled on his personal terms yet, but it's safe to say that won't be a problem.

Raphael already had a contract with Barcelona, but that team doesn't have as much money as Chelsea.

Even if they had enough money to buy the Brazilian, they would still want to sign Robert Lewandowski and Jules Kounde first. This is Xavi's main goal before the summer transfer window opens.

Raphinha played in 35 games last season. He scored 11 goals and set up three others. Despite this, he will still be a great addition to Chelsea. Dembele could decide to stay in Barcelona in the end.
