According to reports, a number of Premier League teams have been put on alert as Barcelona winger Raphinha wants to move back to England to rejoin the Premier League.
After being turned down by Raphinha, then of Leeds, two years ago, Arsenal may now sign the Brazilian winger following the approval of the player to come back to England.
HITC reports that Raphinha, who was a consistent performer under former manager Xavi, turned down the chance to leave the Nou Camp a year ago and is now eager to return to the Premier League.
Barcelona already have an established option for the right-wing position in Lamine Yamal.
Although the player is just 17-years-old, he has cemented his place in the starting line up of Barcelona and Spain.
Yamal won the young player of the tournament award at the European Championship this summer following a run of impressive performances.
Due to his emergence, the Catalan giants feel that they can ease their financial concerns by selling Raphinha this summer.
The player has been informed by the La Liga club that his playing time will be limited next season.
Raphinha is attracting interest from Arsenal.
