Spurs join chase for Rafinha

Tottenham Hotspur are showing interest in Barcelona starlet Rafinha Alcantara, according to Sport.

The talented midfielder has done well during a season-long loan with Inter Milan, but the Nerazzurri are unlikely to trigger a €35 million purchase clause.

However, it is believed that Rafinha is not in the first team plans of Barcelona boss Ernesto Valverde for the new campaign, meaning a summer exit is on the cards.

Sport claims that Tottenham Hotspur have joined the chase for the Brazil international as they could see star player Moussa Dembele leave this summer.

Spurs would probably have no problem matching the €35 million asking price, although chairman Daniel Levy is likely to try and secure a discount.
