Manchester United are rumored to be a surprise transfer from Barcelona attacker Rafinha.
The 28-year-old has had extraordinary results for the Spanish club for the past 12 months and was one of the top candidates to win the Ballon d’Or. Rafinha has been labelled as an “unbelievable” player.
There is no doubt that he is one of the best players in the world at the moment, and could be an unusual acquisition for any team. Fhiages said Manchester United are keeping an eye on his situation and believes he could be a potential reinforcement for the club. The player is reportedly worth 120 million euros, and Manchester United will not have any problems spending such a sum on the player.
It will be interesting to see if they decide to try their luck at the end of the season. It’s not easy to attract this Brazilian player. He is one of the best players in the world and plays for one of the biggest teams. He would hope to regularly compete for big trophies, but Manchester United has not yet reached that level. They have struggled in the last few seasons and are currently not able to play in the Champions League.
Rafinha may consider them a step back from Barcelona. It remains to be seen whether he is willing to join them in the future. If Manchester United wants to get a player of the quality of his, they will need to perform well this season and qualify for next season’s Champions League.
They can definitely use more cutting edge players in the final third, and the former Leeds United attacker will be a great reinforcement. He will help create opportunities and will set them. He is at the height of his career. On top of that, he knows the Premier League well and could have an immediate impact.
