Barcelona reportedly remain open to offers for winger Raphinha ahead of the upcoming transfer windows.

During the summer of 2022, the Catalan giants committed to paying a fee that could rise to £55m to secure the signature of the attacker from Leeds United.

That move came during a time when Barcelona took out economic levers to enable them to significantly improve their first-team squad, aware that they would have to meet tighter regulations in the future.

The acquisition of Raphinha has come with mixed success, with the Brazil international helping Barcelona reclaim the La Liga title in his first year at Camp Nou.

A total of 12 goals and 15 assists have been contributed from 61 appearances, but just 28 of his outings have been made from starting lineups in La Liga.

Xavi has also seemingly preferred other options during 2023-24, with Raphinha being restricted to three starts and just 276 minutes of football in Spain's top flight since the middle of August.

While Raphinha is likely to be keen to remain at a club that he supported during his childhood, there have been constant reports over his availability.

According to Fichajes, club officials remain open to cashing in on the 26-year-old if interest remains from the Premier League.

The most recent report suggests that Barcelona would be willing to do business for a fee in the region of €70m (£61m), an increase in what they paid less than 18 months ago.

Raphinha is unlikely to be short of admirers in England with Arsenal and Chelsea having each wanted to sign him when he was still at Leeds.

Seventeen goals and 12 assists were contributed over two seasons in the Premier League with the Yorkshire giants, 14 of which came in 2021-22 when Leeds only survived relegation on the final day of the season.

However, it remains to be seen whether the Gunners or Blues would be prepared to meet Barcelona's alleged demands, aware that their European rivals have obligations to meet next summer.

La Liga have already ruled that Barcelona will have to make cutbacks and operate with a reduced salary cap for 2024-25, meaning that significant sales or contract renegotiations will be required across the next nine-and-a-half months.
