Raphinha and Ferran Torres: Current situation at FC Barcelona
Raphinha and Ferran Torres, two players who have been on FC Barcelona’s transfer radar, are in a complicated situation in the team. Raphinha, known for his performance on the right wing, has lost his place due to the dominant presence of Lamine Yamal in that position. On the other hand, Hansi Flick has not shown interest in having him on the left wing, since he prefers Luis Díaz. Furthermore, the position created by Xavi Hernández for Raphinha this season, behind the forwards, is no longer part of Flick’s tactical proposal. In the case of Ferran Torres, the German coach does not consider him up to par with FC Barcelona either, which has left his future in the team in doubt.
Bayern Munich’s interest in Xavi Simons
Bayern Munich have shown interest in two FC Barcelona players, especially Raphinha, but it has recently been revealed that Xavi Simons has taken the lead on the German club’s priority list. According to reports from ‘Sport Bild’ magazine, Simons has become Bayern’s main target. Currently under contract with PSG and on loan to Leipzig, Simons has impressed with his performance and is seen as a key player in strengthening Bayern’s structure in the Bundesliga.
Millionaire offer for Xavi Simons
There has been speculation that Bayern Munich are willing to make a significant investment to secure the signing of Xavi Simons. The club would reportedly be willing to shell out up to €100 million for the young midfielder, reflecting Bayern’s high valuation of his talent and versatility on the field.
Competition for the signature of Xavi Simons
Despite the interest of Bayern Munich, FC Barcelona has also shown its interest in recovering Xavi Simons, who has previous links with La Masia. However, competition for his signature is fierce, with multiple European clubs in contention to secure his services.
Uncertain future for Raphinha and Ferran Torres
While Xavi Simons is focused on the Euro Cup with the Dutch team, FC Barcelona will have to consider its options with Raphinha and Ferran Torres. Both players have shown their quality, but with the arrival of Flick, it seems that his days at the club are numbered. The possibility of using them as bargaining chips in other negotiations or selling them to raise funds is an option that the Blaugrana board is exploring.
