Raphinha, Barcelona’s Brazilian striker, took advantage of the press conference prior to the Champions League match that the Barça club plays this Wednesday against Bayern Munich to collect a bill that had been on his mind for some time. Now he is experiencing his best sporting moment and has become a fundamental piece of the Barça eleven, but he knows that he has been highly questioned by a good part of the culé fans. Without going any further, this summer, due to the confessed interest of the Barça board in signing Nico Williams, his name appeared in all the pools as the main candidate to leave his position to the Athletic winger. For Raphinha, the height of indignation was a publication made by the Barcelona ‘tiktoker’ David Suárez (4.2 million of followers) on his Instagram social network account, where he shows a shirt with the ’11’, the Brazilian’s number, and the name “Williams JR.” “I mentioned the shirt thing, it was a bad joke.” , in my opinion. People have to respect the club’s players, who give their best all season long. And seeing a photo like that didn’t taste good to me, it was a lack of respect for me and my work,” says Raphinha. But this was not one of the reasons that served as motivation to start this new season like a rocket: “The people He does what he wants with the shirts and numbers, it was not a reason to start the season the way I started it. I started knowing that to play I had to adapt to other positions, play differently, but always give my best. If before I worked one hundred percent, now I work two hundred percent to give the best of myself to this club.” “The issue of criticism, we players are always in the crosshairs of those who criticize and we have to know how to deal with this. Even at this moment in time, you are being criticized by someone, and you have to cover your ears and continue working,” he added. After hearing the statements, David Suárez apologized to the Barça player: “Once again I ask for your forgiveness Raphinha “I didn’t mean to disrespect you.”
