Saudi Arabian club Al-Hilal has made a significant move to acquire Barcelona's standout player Raphinha, offering a staggering salary of $200 million over four years, which equates to approximately R$ 1.1 billion. This offer comes as the club seeks to replace Neymar, who left earlier in the year.
Raphinha, currently enjoying his best season at Barcelona, has been pivotal in the team's campaign across multiple competitions, scoring 30 goals and providing 23 assists in 49 matches.

Al-Hilal has also proposed a transfer fee of 100 million euros to Barcelona to facilitate the move. However, Barcelona is keen on retaining Raphinha, recognizing his importance to the team, though they acknowledge that the final decision rests with the player.
