Barcelona president Laporta pushing Leeds to drop Raphinha price

Leeds United winger Raphinha remains high on the summer agenda of Barcelona.

Barca president Joan Laporta has discussed the Brazil international with his agent Deco, who also acts as the club's new South American scout.

Sport says the stumbling block is Leeds' valuation.

Leeds are demanding at least €55m for the winger, who is open to the move.

However, given Barca's financial problems, Laporta must talk down Leeds' asking price if the deal is to happen.
