Raphinha is an absolutely outstanding player. In all extended statistics among the top players in the PL. If he had better teammates, we would probably be talking about the third best offensive player this season in the PL after Salah and Bernardo Silva. It would be tough if Bavaria could get it, especially for only 50 million
At the age of 25, Raphnia has only been playing solidly well for 1.5 years. Not even outstanding … Especially since he completely lacks international experience.
He’s not a game changer, he’s not a good scorer in the classic sense, he doesn’t really stand out with dribbling …
For 50 million you get significantly better FS … for example by giving Coman the desired salary
Reminds me a little of One-Two Season Wonder Pepe, whom Bayern should have signed because of outstanding values, etc …
In the end, Bavaria is probably interested, as well as other FS with a similar profile … Nevertheless, in my opinion, that’s a duck … either the manager of Raphinha wants to see him more in the focus of other clubs or Bavaria wants to put pressure on Coman … who probably also want the interesting ones Offers are missing …
I didn’t think his season in Rennes was bad either. In Leeds he needed a bit of start-up time, but has been significantly better than “solidly good” for a year. And yet, he’s outstanding.
I have to say that I have to say that I have overrated international experience by now. I don’t see what it means to have played EL or CL with a Dutch or Portuguese team than to play in the PL. Maybe that you are used to the three-day cycle, but otherwise …
Yes, he really stands out when it comes to dribbling. In the PL, only Adama Traore is better, whereas Raphinha has more output when it comes to serving his colleagues (3 xA and many more potential pre-assists).
Which clearly better grand pianos do you get for 50 million? Of course you can give Coman the money he wants. This will destroy your salary structure, but if you don’t care, this is definitely the cheaper option. But from the outside I don’t see an outsider with a better price-performance ratio.
But there is still a difference between delivering in France and delivering in England
I don’t believe in it either, especially from a Leeds point of view, it doesn’t make much sense, but as a consideration it would be a good candidate
