Jesse Marshall | “I know that Raphinha has wishes, hopes…”

Jesse Marsch has assured in a press conference that the Brazilian has “hope and wishes” and that he does not know if he will go on the tour of the United States

The case of the Porto Alegre winger could be resolved this weekend

The Raphinha theme is very very hot. The Brazilian winger is chosen by Barça to reinforce the attack (together with Lewandowski) and the technical secretariat has been pulling strings for weeks with its representative, Deco. The Porto Alegre player has made it clear that he wants to go to Barça and has ruled out other options, such as Chelsea, physically superior to Leeds.

The coach of the English team has spoken about the situation with his still footballer and has made it clear that the operation is a matter of time: “There is an urgency in his environment to find a solution and unlock it. I know he has hopes and dreams and we will see in the next few days. We will have to continue day by day with Raphinha and see the progress”. In addition, Marsch is not at all clear that his pupil will attend the tour of the United States that Leeds will undertake recently.

From SPORT we have been ensuring in recent months that the gaúcho is a priority for the Barça sports field. The problem, the high claims of Leeds. Still, the deal is close. The player is scheduled to start the preseason on July 12.
