Manchester United table massive €150m offer for 2024-25 season’s standout Barcelona star – Report | OneFootball

FC Barcelona had a very successful 2024-25 season in which they won all the big domestic titles and also reemerged as one of the top teams in Europe as they made their way to the semi-finals of the UEFA Champions League.

Their attack was one of the strongest areas of their team, as Robert Lewandowski, Lamine Yamal, Raphinha, and Ferran Torres all had a very good season.

The Brazilian forward Raphinha was particularly excellent throughout this season, as he scored 34 goals and provided 25 assists in all competitions. 18 of these goals and 11 of these assists came in La Liga and helped him win the La Liga player of season award.

After such a good season, it is natural to see other big European clubs being interested in him. In this regard, Fichajes reports that the Premier League side Manchester United has put in a mammoth bid of €150 million for the winger. The figure is so big that even the Barcelona officials are surprised.

The Red Devils are interested in this year’s Ballon d’Or contender as they want to restructure their attack for the new project that Ruben Amorim is heading.

They see Raphinha as a player who will make an immediate difference for their team. Furthermore, already having experience of playing in the Premier League, the Brazilian winger would not find adapting to English football too difficult.

On the other hand, keeping in view his importance for Hansi Flick’s team, Barcelona would not be too keen to part ways with him. However, the enormity of the offer can make them reconsider their stance, especially as this offer comes at a time when the Blaugranes need to regain financial stability.

For now, what Raphinha feels about this move remains to be seen. At 28 years of age, he is at the peak of his career and has publicly shown his commitment to Hansi Flick’s team. The sporting situation in which Manchester United find themselves will also have an impact on their decision.

This is also the first time this offer from the Red Devils is being reported, and thus, it remains to be seen whether such an offer has actually come in, and if that is the case, how the involved parties would respond to it.
