Leeds United have reportedly informed Barcelona that they do not have the funds required to sign Brazil international Rafinha during this summer's transfer window.
The Whites were said to be weighing up a move for the 27-year-old, who is back at Camp Nou after spending the 2019-20 campaign on loan with Celta Vigo.
According to Mundo Deportivo, Barca approached the Premier League side over a possible deal and informed them that the attacker is available for £14m.
However, the report claims that Leeds made it clear to the Catalan giants that they 'cannot financially manage' to sign the South American before the deadline at the start of October.
Rafinha has made 90 first-team appearances for Barca but is not thought to be in the plans of the club's new head coach Ronald Koeman, who has taken over from Quique Setien.
Leeds will start their 2020-21 Premier League season away to Liverpool on September 12.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has reportedly held secret talks with Borussia Dortmund star Jadon Sancho over a move to Manchester United.
The England international is believed to be United's top target for the remaining few weeks of the transfer window after another impressive campaign last time out.
Dortmund have so far refused to budge on their £108m valuation, but the Red Devils have not yet given up hope of reaching an agreement with the player and his club.
According to Norwegian journalist Fredrik Filtvedt, Solskjaer has been in talks with Sancho and the 20-year-old remains keen on a switch to Old Trafford.
However, Sancho does not intend to force through a move, which leaves Dortmund with plenty of bargaining power in negotiations with United.
Solskjaer has made one signing so far this summer, bringing in Donny van de Beek from Ajax in a deal worth up to £40m.
