Barça’s top scorer sets sights beyond Spain after sealing domestic dominance – Full reaction inside!
The Moment: After Barcelona secured the 2024/25 La Liga title, star winger Raphinha delivered a post-match verdict that raised eyebrows — and revealed the hunger still burning within the Brazilian maestro.
Raphinha’s Reaction:
> “I have already won all the domestic titles with this shirt. Now we have to win the European titles.”
He didn’t stop there:
> “I think it was one of my worst games this season. I’m a critic, that’s how you know it.”
The Bigger Picture:
Raphinha has now contributed a record-breaking 59 goals this season — more than any other player at the club.
He was instrumental in Xavi’s 2023 title-winning campaign, and again led from the front this season under Hansi Flick.
Yet his comments signal a shift in mentality: Barcelona may have reclaimed La Liga, but Raphinha wants Champions League glory.
Why It Matters:
His self-critique shows elite mentality — even on the night of triumph, he’s focused on improvement and bigger prizes.
As Flick begins a new era with a contract until 2027, Raphinha’s hunger mirrors the club’s ambition to return to European dominance.
Pedri Also Speaks:
> “La Liga was very hard to win this year. We are very proud,” said Pedri, emphasizing the difficulty of the campaign.
With La Liga secured and Espanyol likely relegated in the process, Barcelona’s attention now turns to Europe, with figures like Raphinha and Pedri already
focused on continental glory in 2026.
