Raphinha

Barcelona president Joan Laporta has revealed he personally attempted to sign Lautaro Martínez this summer, only to be told by Inter Milan that the forward was not for sale.

Barcelona president Joan Laporta has confirmed the club has ended its pursuit of Atlético Madrid striker Julián Alvarez, signalling an end to a summer-long transfer feud.

Barcelona's shift in focus away from Julián Álvarez, spurred by Raphinha's blistering form, has reportedly put Arsenal on alert for a potential move in January.

Barcelona are planning to open contract talks with winger Raphinha following reported interest from Chelsea and Arsenal, sporting director Deco has confirmed.

Anthony Gordon has matched a LaLiga record held by Luis Suárez and Cesc Fàbregas after an impressive start to his Barcelona career.
