Despite recent speculation linking Raphinha with a potential move to Saudi Arabia, Barcelona have no intention of parting ways with the Brazilian winger.
According to journalist Anis Martí, the message from inside the club's offices is unequivocal: Raphinha is not for sale.
BARCELONA HAVE NO PLANS TO SELL
Interest from Saudi clubs has continued to generate headlines in recent weeks, but internally Barcelona remain fully committed to keeping one of their most influential attacking players.
The club sees Raphinha as a key part of the project and has no desire to weaken a forward line that is expected to compete for every major trophy this season.
ONLY ONE SCENARIO COULD CHANGE THINGS
According to the report, there is only one situation that could force Sporting Director Deco to reconsider Barcelona's position.
That would be if Raphinha personally asked to leave the club. However, such a scenario is considered highly unlikely at this stage, with the Brazilian fully focused on continuing his journey at Barça.
FLICK CONSIDERS HIM UNTOUCHABLE
Hansi Flick reportedly views Raphinha as one of the pillars of his attacking system. The German coach values the winger's work rate, leadership, pressing intensity and ability to deliver in decisive moments.
Rather than looking to replace him, Barcelona's objective this summer is to strengthen the attack, adding more quality and depth around players like Raphinha instead of breaking up one of the team's strongest units.
With the club aiming to challenge for both La Liga and the UEFA Champions League, Barcelona's stance is clear: Raphinha remains a fundamental part of Flick's project, and the club has no intention of listening to offers.
