Previously, Raphinha missed several matches due to the risk of a relapse that could have ended his season prematurely. Now, however, the Blaugrana medical staff have confirmed there is no longer any risk and the player is fully fit.

This season, Raphinha has played 22 matches across all competitions, netting 13 goals and providing 5 assists. His current contract with Barcelona runs until 2028, and according to Transfermarkt, his market value stands at €80 million.
