The favourites to sign Leeds United and Brazil winger Raphinha this summer have been revealed.
The Brazilian has been linked with several clubs this summer, with a brief summary of the saga so far below.
For several weeks, it was Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal who were the side most heavily linked with the Brazilian and, despite no deal being completed, it did look as though Raphinha was Emirates bound.
That was until mid-June when various reports emerged suggesting that Chelsea were close to agreeing a deal with Leeds for their star winger.
Then, despite Barcelona’s financial crisis, it was the Catalan powerhouse who were believed to be the winger’s first choice.
But, because of the monetary woes being faced by Barcelona, Leeds were understood to prefer Chelsea’s proposal, whilst the player himself wants to move to Spain.
A further report then suggested that Chelsea had turned their attention to another target, leaving the door open for Arsenal to swoop in and snatch Raphinha from under the nose of a cash-strapped Barca.
However, with the 2022/23 season now less than a month away, Raphinha is still yet to move clubs.
But Betfair have provided a list of favourites when it comes to signing the winger.
