Barcelona make swap bid for Leeds winger Raphinha

Barcelona have put forward a player-plus-cash offer for Leeds United winger Raphinha.

The Daily Mail says Barca are using Oscar Mingueza as makeweight in their pursuit of the Brazilian attacker.

Xavi Hernandez wants Raphinha to replace Ousmane Dembele, who is expected to leave once his contract expires at season's end.

Leeds are demanding at least £60m, and Barca think they can include Mingueza to sweeten the deal.

Mingueza, 25, can operate at centre-back and right-back.
