Will Jules Kounde and Raphinha leave Barcelona this summer?

Barcelona’s financial issues mean speculation about potential player exits have dominated the gossip columns all season.

Yet two names keep on cropping up - Jules Kounde and Raphinha - with the latest update claiming Barca will “prioritize” their departures this summer.

Diario Sport reckon Barca are happy to put both on the market even though neither player wants to leave the club.

Deco has insisted that the “idea is not to sell anyone” this summer but unless the club can find a cash injection from somewhere else they may not have much choice.

Kounde’s name keeps being mentioned in the Catalan press, largely because he’s playing out of position at right-back and also because Barca have plenty of center-back options.
