The latest social media activity on the part of Barcelona star Raphinha has turned heads this weekend.
This comes after the 27-year-old hinted at his feelings regarding the possibility of being replaced in new boss Hansi Flick’s squad this summer.
Fresh speculation surrounding Raphinha’s future in Catalunya’s capital, of course, has begun to circulate over recent days.
As much comes amid reports that the Barcelona brass would be willing to move him on over the months ahead, in the case of landing Luis Díaz from Liverpool as his replacement.
Blaugrana sporting director Deco is understood to be a long-term admirer of Díaz, with his natural position on the left representing a more suitable profile than that of Raphinha as things stand.
Those of a Barca persuasion, in turn, will no doubt be interested to hear of their side’s gifted wide-man this weekend weighing in on the matter himself.
Taking to his official Instagram account, Raphinha hinted that he is not at all interested in a summer transfer, in leaving a ‘like’ on the following post, detailing that:
‘Luis Díaz is a great footballer and he would suit our system, but he should not come at the expense of Raphinha – who has had an even better season.’
