In the next 24 hours he could sign for Chelsea – Journalist confirms as star player wants Stamford Bridge move
Since Nizaar Kinsella joined the Evening Standard this week, we now regard them as a top source since he is a very trustworthy source.
Raphinha, a target for Chelsea, might decide whether he wants to transfer to Stamford Bridge “within 24 hours,” the author writes in today’s article.
Given that we had written off this move once Barcelona received their most recent cash infusion, that is a highly encouraging update. They still seem to be having trouble meeting Leeds’ expectations, whereas we are happy to make a cash payment.
We all know Raphinha would want to relocate to the Nou Camp, but the current situation may prevent him from doing so. Some Chelsea supporters won’t be thrilled to be a player’s second choice, but that’s the way modern football is, and we’ll just be happy to have a good player in the end.
This deadline seems to have been set up to force Barca to step up their game; if they don’t, we might have a chance.
