Barcelona boss Luis Enrique has revealed that he is pleased with the progress that Rafinha has made at the Camp Nou this season.
The 22-year-old also played under Enrique last season when the pair were at Celta Vigo and he has become a regular for the Catalan side this term.
Despite a midfield bustling with talent, Rafinha has racked up 31 appearances in all competitions and Enrique has said that he has "100% faith" in the Brazilian-born attacker.
"He's having a very good season. He has played more at certain times than he has at others, but I have 100% faith in him. He faces a lot of competition for that position," Enrique told reporters at a press conference.
Barcelona, who currently sit top of La Liga by two points from Real Madrid, return to action at home to Getafe on Tuesday.
