Roma 'interested in Rafinha deal'

Roma are reportedly interested in signing Barcelona midfielder Rafinha.

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, scoring twice in 17 Serie A appearances for the Italian giants before returning to Camp Nou.

Rafinha has been involved in three of Barcelona's last five La Liga matches, but his long-term future at the club is unclear, with a number of suitors linked with a move.

According to Calciomercato, Inter are still not interested in signing the Brazil international on a permanent deal, but Roma are considering an approach for the attacker in the January transfer window.

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