Report have shown that the Premier League leaders are said to have reignited their interest in the Brazilian after losing out to Chelsea in the race to sign Mykhaylo Mudryk from Shakhtar Donetsk.
Both Arsenal and Chelsea were linked with a move for Raphinha in the summer, with the ex-Rennes man scoring 11 goals to help Leeds United stay in the Premier League last season.
Although Tottenham Hotspur were also credited with an interest, but Barcelona successfully concluded a deal for the 26-year-old, who is under contract at Camp Nou until 2027.

However, Raphinha’s future in Catalonia is already being called into question, and Arsenal have supposedly approached Barcelona to sound out a possible transfer this month.
Arsenal ultimately refused to meet Shakhtar’s €100m (£88.6m) asking price for Mudryk, but they can supposedly expect to be quoted an identical amount to sign Raphinha.
The report adds that Barcelona president Joan Laporta will not consider any lower offers for the former Rennes man, who has three goals and five assists to show from 23 games in his debut season for La Blaugrana.
However, Raphinha has found starts difficult to come by in recent weeks under Xavi, and he has only been named in the first XI in one of their last seven La Liga contests.
The Brazil international was also given just a 12-minute run-out in Sunday’s 3-1 win over Real Madrid in the Supercopa de Espana final, with Ousmane Dembele and Gavi preferred in the wide areas.
