Raphinha has been a bright spark for Leeds United as they have battled relegation from the Premier League this season.

Following the weekend’s results, the Whites are in huge danger of going down after they dropped into the bottom three. As is the case in football, the vultures will circle in that eventuality.

The Brazil international has long been on the list of targets for Barcelona and the winger looks likely to move on at the end of the season, when Leeds could find themselves back in the Championship.

Leeds United’s potential relegation from the Premier League could help force Raphinha’s move to Barcelona, according to Mundo Deportivo.

Even if Ousmane Dembele signs a new contract, the Catalan giants are keen to land another winger.

While Dembele’s future has reportedly depended on Barcelona’s qualification for the Champions League, the desire to sign Raphinha has been clear regardless. 

Leeds’ relegation would reportedly allow the the 25-year-old to leave for €25million (£21.4m), though there is no clause in his contract that establishes an exact price.
