Barcelona star admits he and teammates are ‘already thinking about Real Madrid’ | OneFootball

Barcelona star Raphinha has confirmed that he and his teammates have already shifted attentions towards their upcoming showdown with arch rivals Real Madrid.

This comes after a night to remember for Hansi Flick’s troops on the continent.

Barcelona marked their return to action a short time ago, welcoming German giants Bayern Munich to Catalunya’s capital for a Champions League clash.

And, when all was said and done, the Blaurgana made short work of Bayern, to the tune of a 4-1 rout.

The aforementioned Raphinha, meanwhile, proved himself the star of the show, notching a wonderful hat-trick on his way to deserved Man of the Match honours.

Speaking to the media on the back of the full-time whistle, however, the Brazilian international was keen to shift attentions away from the job done, and towards that in store.

Ahead of Saturday’s first Clásico of the campaign, Raphinha confirmed:

“We are already thinking about El Clásico.”

He continued:

“It will be a brilliant match. It’s one of the best matches in the world.”
