Barcelona club's winger Raphinha commented on his start in this team:

Many people wanted me to leave this team after the first few matches.

Probably because I didn't play as I wanted. I wasn't the player they expected something from, and they didn't see that I would stay in this team in the future...

And it wasn't a small group; it was something real and clear.

28-year-old Raphinha has been playing for Barcelona since 2023 and has scored 57 goals in 151 matches.

In this season, the Brazilian has scored three times in seven matches.
