Raphinha missed some of Barcelona's games this season due to minor injuries. The same injury that sidelined him for a few months at the end of 2025 returned to haunt the forward at the beginning of 2026. Despite this, the Brazilian stated that he is recovered.

“Physically, I'm not as tired as some of the players. In the end, I came back from a minor injury, so I had some time to rest. I feel good,” he said.

According to the player, the minor injuries provided him with more rest time, crucial for the final stretch of the season, where player fatigue begins to weigh due to the accumulation of games.

Raphinha concluded by stating that “there are certainly players more worn out than I am.”

For Barcelona, the forward has played 171 games, scored 68 times, and provided 56 assists.
