Barcelona winger Raphinha is being targeted by Saudi Pro League clubs, according to Spanish outlet Sport.

The Saudis spending spree is set to continue this summer with several high profile stars linked with potential moves to the SPL.

The Brazil international is among those that may end up signing for a Saudi club, amid Barca's attempts to offload some of their players at the end of the season. 

The Catalan club will be looking to ease its financial burdens by selling the 27-year-old who earns €5.5 million per season.

Al-Hilal, Al-Nassr, Al-Ittihad and Al-Ahli which are all owned by the Saudi Public Investment Fund are being touted as potential suitors.
