Chelsea very keen on signing former Leeds star Raphinha as Barcelona is seriously considering selling him

Chelsea very keen on signing former Leeds star Raphinha as Barcelona is seriously considering selling him.

Chelsea is looking to strenghten their defense and whole team in every way possible and buying Raphinha will be a very good way to go.

Considering the fact that Barcelona is looking to sell the defender by Summer he could be a very good add to the team as the club looks to do a total overhaul of players and the whole team.

The Brazilian decided to sign for Barca instead, but has not always been at his best form this season at the Camp Nou.

Barcelona must raise £178 million before they can register all their players on new contracts and make more signings.

Diario Sport states that while Barca may consider Raphinha one of those they can sell, the player is happy at the club.

He has only recently arrived at Barca and would not want to move on after only a single season.
