 * one f only for Portuguese/Spainsh language (Rafael), Raffaello in Italain, but he played in German speaking countries (Swiss German zone), which spell as Raffael. The high possibility of the German club Germanized the name.


 * The official site of Swiss League, Brazilian FA's player record list him only as Rafael.


 * Or, you can find source that Raffael very common than Rafael. Matthew_hk   t  c  07:35, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
 * His own Homepage is the best source. And the official Site of German League also writes his name with two f. When the name would be germanized, it would be Raphael and not Raffael. Yoda1893 (talk) 17:27, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
