Barcelona need to earn money from player sales to balance their books. That is why they will be willing to sell some of their best players next summer.
Players like Fermin Lopez and Marc Casado are gaining interest from Premier League clubs. Now, there is another player who is getting the same attention from a Premier League giant.
Yes, Manchester United are eyeing a move for Raphinha next summer. The Red Devils already revamped their attack this summer.
Ruben Amorim has brought in Matheus Cunha, Bryan Mbeumo, and Benjamin Sesko to change his attack entirely.
The Portuguese boss also sold Antony, Alejandro Garnacho, Marcus Rashford, and Jadon Sancho. However, this new-look United attack has not been lethal.
They only scored 9 goals in 7 Premier League games. Also, the performance of Matheus Cunha is far from satisfactory.
That is why Manchester United are looking for an attacker next summer, along with a defender and a midfielder.
Raphinha has become their primary target now. That is why Barcelona have informed United of the price they have to pay to get him out of Camp Nou.
According to Fichajes, Manchester United have to pay around €120 million to sign Raphinha next summer. The Brazilian has a contract with Barcelona until 2028.
Now, the Red Devils are eyeing a move for Carlos Baleba as well. And, they might have to pay over £100m for the Cameroonian.
So, it will be interesting to see whether the Red Devils can pay the money for Raphinha or if any other club from Europe will swoop in and sign the Brazilian.
🚨 Barcelona would demand €120M for Raphinha in 2026 given their financial situation.
Manchester United have been linked with the Brazilian winger.
