Rivaldo can see Leeds star Raphinha joining Arsenal

Rivaldo can see Leeds United star Raphinha joining Arsenal.

World Cup winner Rivaldo believes the Brazilian winger is ready for a big move in this summer's transfer window.

He told Betfair: "Arsenal are still chasing Raphinha's signature, and could go over €50million (£43million) to achieve it.

"Nowadays, Raphinha is seen as a big player in English football and is a regular in the Brazilian national team, so, it wouldn't be a surprise to see him move to a bigger Premier League club, which would mean that his presence at the World Cup will become even more likely, especially as he has been a regular in Tite's squads lately."
