Raphinha: Brazil and Barça agree to manage his minutes
The CBF and Barcelona have agreed to control the winger's playing time to avoid a possible relapse or a new injury.
Raphinha will have his playing time managed under an agreement between the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) and Barcelona. According to Diario AS, the deal aims to keep the winger from taking risks around a possible relapse or a new injury.
The move is preventive: neither club nor national team wants to expose the Brazilian to another physical setback, so how his minutes are distributed will be decided jointly by both sides.
