The Brazilian winger has been involved in a transfer tug-of-war between the Spanish giants and Chelsea.
And it seems Nou Camp legend Xavi has finally got his man.
According to Spanish radio station COPE, the 25-year-old will report to Barcelona HQ and then have his medical with club doctors.
The Catalans are keen to wrap up the deal so they can include Raphinha on their pre-season tour of the US.
Barca have finally submitted a bid worth an initial £49million, rising to £58m with add-ons.

Leeds are expected to accept that offer, with the deal set to be confirmed imminently.
Chelsea had agreed a fee worth around £55million with Leeds for Raphinha, only for the winger to hold out for a move to Barca.
Barca recently agreed a £178million deal to sell a 10 per cent stake in their La Liga TV rights for the next 25 years.
But those funds must reportedly be used to balance the books instead of splashing out on new players.
