Arsenal leading in the race for Raphinha, full agreement close

Arsenal are the front-runners in the race for Raphinha, Matteo Moretto reports.

There is still no agreement between the Gunners and Leeds United, but their positions are getting closer. The parties are in permanent contact.

However, there is no talk regarding a personal agreement with Raphinha. As per reports in Spain, the 25-year-old still prioritizes a move to Barcelona.

However, the Catalans are finding it hard to gather funds to submit a bid. Leeds reportedly want €50m for the player, but Barca need to activate the economic levers before they can make such moves.
