Chelsea and Arsenal vying to sign Barcelona attacker?
Chelsea and Arsenal could make fresh moves to sign Barcelona forward Raphinha this summer, according to Sport.
The Brazilian was on the radar of the London giants last summer but he snubbed them to join the Catalan outfit.
Raphinha has 21 goal contributions so far this season but he is reportedly concerned over his future at the club.
The 26-year-old is afraid that he could become a fringe player next term if Lionel Messi were to rejoin the Catalans.
The former Leeds United man fears this could also hamper his national team spot due to the lack of regular game time.
Hence, he is considering a Premier League return and it is claimed that Chelsea and Arsenal are still keen on him.
The Blues are prepared to offload several players this summer and they could revive their pursuit of the winger.
Arsenal, on the other hand, have been in constant contact with Raphinha's agent over a possible summer transfer.
