Earlier in the season, AS reported Tottenham Hotspur are keeping an eye on Barcelona?s Raphinha.

He?s slowly been gaining prominence in recent weeks, after the Catalan press believe he had a weak start to the season.
His aim is to feature regularly for Barca until the end of this season and represent Brazil at the Copa América in the summer. Towards the end, Sport state his future at club is ?far from clear?. When discussing interested parties, Tottenham get a mention and it?s said they have been ?interested in him throughout his career?. Spurs have to be wary of competition from Saudi Arabia, from where an unnamed club have already made a ?80m offer for Raphinha.
The former Leeds United star was previously managed by Deco and has been without an agent since the latter became Barca?s sporting director.
