Raphinha - Page 7 - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Expected to play Sunday Raphinha (undisclosed) is set to make the match-day squad against Norwich City on Sunday.

Impact Raphinha was forced in the 54tgh minute against Wolves on Saturday but appears to be no worse for the wear. With the midfielder available, he should be a near-lock for the starting XI considering he has featured in all eight of his appearances for the club this year. In those outings, Raphinha has garnered three goals on 27 shots (eight on target), 45 crosses (nine accurate) and 25 corners and should remain a top-end fantasy option.
