Chelsea to face Arsenal competition in signing €80m Brazilian star

Chelsea have reportedly entered in race to sign Raphinha from Barcelona in the upcoming transfer window.

According to journalist Joaquim Piera, the Brazilian winger, who will most probably leave Camp Nou this summer, is currently on the radar of several Premier League clubs including Arsenal and Newcastle United.

The 26-year-old joined the La Liga giants from Leeds United last summer. However, since his arrival, the attacker has been a formidable force for the Catalans, with a remarkable 10 goals and 11 assists to his name across 45 matches in all competitions.

As per several sources, the player and his agent, Deco, are already considering offers as Brazil international might make a comeback to England.

Last summer, the Blues were pushing to secure Raphinha's services from the Yorkshire outfit, however, Barca successfully hijacked the attacker.

Moreover, any potential deal would need to meet Barcelona's asking price, which is believed to be between €70m-€80m.
