Current Barcelona forward Raphinha is currently considered one of the top contenders for this season’s Ballon d’Or, thanks to the outstanding results he’s achieved under coach Hansi Flick. His stats include 48 appearances, with involvement in 53 goals—scoring 30 and assisting 23. Naturally, such numbers and performances have drawn significant attention!Only TWO players in the top-five leagues have 50+ goal contributions this season:🇪🇬 Mohamed Salah 🤝 Raphinha 🇧🇷 pic.twitter.com/R6LqhM0Ubl— OneFootball (@OneFootball) April 22, 2025 According to Spanish newspaper Sport, Saudi club Al Hilal is desperate to sign Raphinha and is preparing a package worth 300 million euros to land the Barcelona star. Reports suggest the Catalans would be offered 100 millions, while the player would receive a four-year contract in the desert with a salary of 50 millions per year.This isn’t entirely surprising considering Al Hilal recently lost their superstar Neymar, who returned to Santos. However, sources from Catalonia claim that Barcelona has no intention of selling the Brazilian despite the financial difficulties the club is facing. Nevertheless, the club is prepared to let the final decision rest with the player himself, making anything possible at this stage.🚨🚨🌕| BREAKING: Al Hilal are ready to offer €100M to Barcelona for Raphinha this summer!They will also offer €200M to Raphinha [4-year contract at €50M/year].[@sport] 🔵🔴💸 pic.twitter.com/2IUyBUPy9i— Managing Barça (@ManagingBarca) April 23, 2025 According to Sport, Raphinha’s contract—set to run until 2027—will play a key role in any potential transfer.
