Agent: 'Rafinha has lots of offers'

Barcelona midfielder Rafinha has offers from Spain, England, France and Germany as he prepares to leave Camp Nou, according to the Brazilian's father and agent Mazinho.

Barcelona midfielder Rafinha has offers from Spain, England, France and Germany as he prepares to leave Camp Nou this summer, according to the Brazilian's father and agent Mazinho.

Rafinha found the back of the net seven times in 28 appearances for Barcelona during the 2016-17 season, but he missed the tail end of the campaign with a knee injury and did not return to action until January.

The 25-year-old joined Inter Milan on loan for the second half of the 2017-18 campaign, and scored twice in 17 Serie A appearances for the Italian giants.

Inter have passed up the chance to sign the midfielder on a permanent deal, however, and Rafinha recently said that he was "ready for anything" in this summer's transfer window.

Mazinho has insisted that there is "no shortage of opportunities" for Rafinha, with Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham United believed to be among the list of interested clubs.

"Milan was always our priority but time has run out," Marzinho told Gazzetta dello Sport. "We couldn't afford to wait any longer, now it's only right for us to look around. He loved it at Inter, he adapted immediately and the fans took to him with affection and enthusiasm.

"We've already talked with the club [Barcelona], and together we're evaluating what's best for them and us. We're waiting to understand their intentions, so we can't yet say where he'll play.

"There's no shortage of opportunities, at Inter Rafinha showed that he guarantees a big return and physically he's very well. We're evaluating, the phone is ringing. There have been requests from La Liga, the Premier League, Ligue 1 and the Bundesliga.

"Serie A? Of course, some great teams have already contacted us, but I'm not naming names. They're top secret! We need to evaluate what's best for him, that's what matters. Until now we put everything on standby waiting for Inter, who tried to lower the price of his buyout clause. Now we have to find a new team as soon as possible."

Rafinha has a contract with Barcelona until the end of the 2019-2020 campaign.
