Leeds United player Raphinha looks set for a €58 million move to Spanish giants Barcelona.
The skilful winger, who helped Jesse Marsch's side survive Premier League relegation last season, contributed 17 goals in the English top-flight over two campaigns.
The 25-year-old is expected to undergo a medical in Barcelona ahead of his proposed move - a five-year deal which could rise to more than €67 million with add-ons.
