Leeds United have given Barcelona a 48-hour ultimatum to complete a deal for Raphinha, according to Goal.
The end of the Raphinha transfer saga might be in sight, with Barca having finally been able to match the bid made by Chelsea for the Brazil winger.
The onus is now on Leeds to negotiate with the LaLiga side, who are the club that Raphinha would prefer to join having agreed personal terms with them in May.
Despite being less than stable when it comes to their finances, Barcelona have matched the £60 million ($72m) offer – including add-ons – that Leeds agreed with Chelsea last week.
Meanwhile, Arsenal are all but out of the race despite showing interest earlier in the transfer window.
