But the EURO 2024 winner’s reluctance to join the Blaugrana has actually worked to their advantage in the months since being snubbed.

Against Bayern, Raphinha broke the deadlock inside 54 seconds by rounding Manuel Neuer with a superb individual effort.

He also etched his name into Barça history with the quickfire opener registering as the club’s second-fasted European goal in almost 20 years.

54 - Raphinha, 54 seconds into the game, has scored Barcelona's second earliest goal in the @ChampionsLeague, after one by Mark van Bommel against Panathinaikos in 2005 (36 seconds). Quickly.

Despite Harry Kane levelling midway through the first half, Raphinha later claimed a hat-trick taking his goal involvements to 15 from 13 games this season.

Is there a better player on the European stage right now?
