West Ham United are reportedly set to make a second approach for Raphinha despite Barcelona showing a keen interest in the Leeds winger.

West Ham United are reportedly set to make a second approach for Leeds United's Raphinha.

The 25-year-old has been integral to Leeds' bid to remain in the Premier League this season, scoring 10 goals in his 31 appearances.

It has been previously reported that Barcelona have shown an interest in the winger, with the Xavi said to be keen on signing the Brazilian.

Barcelona are prepared to activate the £25m release clause if Leeds drop down to the Championship, however, West Ham are also vying for Raphinha's signature.

According to Sport, the Hammers are expected to make a second approach for the winger after making a previous offer a few months ago, although the report suggests that Raphinha is waiting to see if Barcelona make a concrete offer.

The Brazilian joined Leeds in 2020, and there are still two years left to run on his current deal at Elland Road.
