Barcelona have reportedly set an asking price for midfielder Raphinha who is being pursued by Cristiano Ronaldo's Al-Nassr. The 27-year-old has been at the Camp Nou since 2022.
In 87 games across competitions, he has contributed 20 goals and 25 assists across competitions. That includes 10 goals and 13 assists in 37 outings last season, but Raphinha started only 25 times, as Xavi's side endured a trophyless campaign.
Despite being contracted to Barca till 2027, Raphinha has been linked with an exit this summer, with reported interest from Arsenal and Saudi Arabia. As per El Nacional, Al-Nassr have entered the fray, with Barca setting the player's asking price at €80 million.
However, the Brazilian - who could become one of the best-paid players in the league by teaming up with Ronaldo and Sadio Mane - is intent to stay on and win titles at the Camp Nou under new manager Hansi Flick.
Considering Barcelona's well-documented financial woes, they need player sales to make significant reinforcements. It's being said that they could even sanction Raphinha's departure for €60 million, but the player is seemingly determined to fight for his place.
How has Al-Nassr striker Cristiano Ronaldo fared against Barcelona?
Al-Nassr striker Cristiano Ronaldo has a decent record against Barcelona. One of the most prolific scorers ever in the game's history, the 39-year-old has netted nearly 900 goals for club and country.
During his illustrious career spanning more than two decades and counting, the five-time Ballon d'Or winner has scored 20 times and provided three assists in 37 games across competitions against the Blaugrana.
Most of those goals (18) came during his nine-year spell at Real Madrid between 2009 and 2018. Ronaldo, though, has a losing 15-10 record against the Blaugrana, having played for three different clubs.
However, in his last game against Barcelona, Ronaldo struck a brace as Juventus won 3-0 at the Camp Nou during a 2020-21 UEFA Champions League group game, marking his first goal in five games in the competition against Barca.
