Finally
This transfer story went on for months, and at different points, it seemed like different things could happen.
At one point, it looked like Arsenal was going to sign him, and the fee agreement with Chelsea made everyone think he was going to Stamford Bridge.
Raphinha seems to have finally made his dream move to the Camp Nou, which is something his agent Deco has been trying to do for most of 2022.
Leeds got the fee they wanted from the start, but because of Barcelona’s situation, it’s likely they’ll get it in parts.
They should now use this money wisely to get another striker and a left back, since these are two areas that need to be improved.
