Rafinha 'keen to leave Barcelona for Valencia'

Barcelona midfielder Rafinha is reportedly keen for his club to reach an agreement with Valencia over a move to the Mestalla in this summer's transfer window.

The 26-year-old has made 87 first-team appearances for Barca, featuring on a regular basis for the club following a loan spell at Celta Vigo during the 2013-14 campaign.

Rafinha has missed a lot of football over the last couple of seasons due to two serious knee injuries, though, and his future at Camp Nou is far from secure.

According to Diario Sport, Valencia are keen to land the midfielder on a permanent deal this summer and the South American wants Barca to drop their £13.5m asking price.

Rafinha had a loan spell at Inter Milan in the second half of the 2017-18 campaign, scoring twice in 17 Serie A appearances before heading back to Camp Nou.

The attacker will see his contract with Ernesto Valverde's side expire next June.
