Bayern Munich and Liverpool are reportedly interested in Leeds winger Raphinha
The Sun have reported that the Bundesliga giants are ready to ‘test Leeds’ resolve’ in the January transfer window, but would be prepared to wait until the summer.

Raphinha, who joined Leeds from Rennes for £20m in October 2020, has been the club’s best player so far this season.

His performances have caught the attention of Jurgen Klopp, with the Reds monitoring the Brazilian ace as well as West Ham star Jarrod Bowen.
Liverpool are known to be on the hunt for reinforcements in the forward areas, given that the prolific trident of Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane are each entering the final 18 months of their contracts.
The Reds are also faced with the prospect of losing both Salah and Mane on a temporary basis as each Africa Cup of Nations tournaments comes around, as will soon be the case in January.

Raphinha has been in fine form for a struggling Leeds side scoring eight league goals
Raphinha has recently broken into the senior Brazil national side, yet maintains his happiness at Elland Road under Marcelo Bielsa.
When asked if he felt he could achieve his goals at his current club, Raphinha told BBC Radio Leeds: ‘Without a doubt.
‘When you bring together players with a real, strong, winning desire together with the manager, the coaching staff, fans who love the club, you create a wonderful atmosphere in the stadium and at the training ground.’
