Arsenal have been struggling for several weeks. Indeed, the Gunners remain in four games without a win in the Premier League, including two defeats. Now relegated to fourth place in the championship, the London club sees Liverpool fly to the top of the standings with a nine-point lead.
More feverish defensively than usual, Arsenal are especially struggling offensively. Reason why Mikel Arteta asked his leaders to recruit a scorer capable of stacking goals, like Viktor Gyökeres who is on fire with Sporting CP. And yet the big rumor of the moment concerns a very prolific winger.
According to the latest information from El Nacional, Arsenal are ready to submit an offer of 90 million euros to recruit Raphinha, the Brazilian winger from FC Barcelona. Even if the former Leeds and Stade Rennais player is not a scorer, we can understand the Gunners' interest in the Brazilian.
Monstrous since the start of the season, Raphinha, who has already reached 12 goals and 10 assists in 17 matches in all competitions, has established himself as an indisputable starter at Barça. Reason why PSG sporting director Luis Campos is also in the running for Raphinha, as well as Liverpool.
Is a departure from Raphinha possible during the winter transfer window? If FC Barcelona could be listening to offers exceeding 100 million euros, the Brazilian is not open to a departure. Can the situation change in January?
