11 - Raphinha

[Joan]

Yo Jo,

The Balkan Russell Crowe avatar is kinda growing on me. Has an iconic feel to it for some reason.

It's because the user behind it is an icon.

Very excited to see how he does. Not happy about the fee but i never am with this clubs transfers tbh.

No one can be a downgrade to Dembele if we take into a consideration last five years and his price tag. Sometimes it looks like people remember only the last 6 months. If he played like that entire time we would easily give him much more than 6 mil. The real question is which version of Dembele would we see after renewal?

With his last ~8 games being rather shit (to be fair the whole team was dross).

Top player and would be a great signing. Probably the only signing the club would have made that I wanted in about 8 years

 

[Androutsos]

What's the reason?

Maybe he likes taking sun

Every Brazilian dreams of playing for Barca or Madrid. Raphinha especially as he grew up close to Ronaldinho.

[Nizaar Kinsella] Chelsea are no longer favourites to sign Raphinha with Barcelona now trying to finalise a deal with Leeds. In the meantime, Chelsea have been advancing talks for Raheem Sterling, Nathan Ake and Matthijs de Ligt

 

[iniestaGOAT]

Definitely admire his dream to play for Barca and shall support him like ferran. Let's fucking go


Hope this is the end for dembele

 

[jairzinho]

Romario, Ronaldo, Rivaldo, Ronaldinho, Raphina.....

He is destined to play for us.

 

[Barcilliant]

This guy gives me Sonny Anderson and Geovanni vibes. He won't be a total flop but he'll be fairly average. The fee is waay too much but that's the Market nowadays. If you don't scout well you end up overpaying.

 

[Devils]

Big money on Brazilian players in this day and age doesn't seem to pan out well most of the time.

Hopefully this cat works out for us!

 

[vuji_31]

I think he can have resell value.

 

[Andresito]

Could've cost half of that. Pity

 

[Andresito]

Not a guaranteed sign, but the fact that other clubs were also interested and willing to pay more than 70m shows that he's deemed useful for other clubs as well.
