Barcelona are reportedly gearing up to make a major move in the 2025 summer transfer window.
According to Fichajes, the club is considering parting with Raphinha, the Brazilian winger who has been in excellent form this season.
This decision could be part of a larger plan to secure one of the most sought-after young talents in Europe, either Jamal Musiala or Nico Williams, two players who have captured the attention of top clubs across the continent.
Raphinha, who has a contract with Barcelona until 2027, has made a significant impact this season, contributing 17 goals and 10 assists in just 25 games.
Despite his impressive form, Barcelona are weighing the possibility of selling him. The club values his transfer at around €80 million, a sum that could be used to strengthen the squad and maintain the club’s standing among Europe’s elite.
Musiala and Nico on radar
Musiala, who plays for Bayern Munich, and Nico, the dynamic forward from Athletic Club, are top targets for Barcelona’s sporting management.
Both players have been identified as ideal additions to complement a potent attack that already includes Robert Lewandowski and the promising Lamine Yamal.
Signing either of these young stars would not only boost Barcelona’s competitiveness but also fulfil the expectations of a fanbase hungry for high-profile players who can make an immediate impact.
President Joan Laporta is reportedly focused on making a move that would have a significant sporting and media impact, especially now that the club as returned to the 1:1 rule.
Selling Raphinha could free up the financial resources needed to bring in the kind of young, exciting talent that would energize both the squad and supporters.
With the summer transfer window approaching, Barcelona are preparing to make a strategic move that could shape the club’s future for the longer term.
