Everton are expected to complete the signing of Rafinha soon
Reports in England claim Carlo Ancelotti is keen to sign the Brazilian midfielder
Rafinha is one of the players Barça are looking to move on this summer. The midfielder hasn't been short of offers but is determined to play in the Premier League. Everton are closing in on an agreement with Barça according to 'Liverpool Echo'. Rafinha has a buyout clause of €16m and Barça hope to receive an offer close to that figure.
Rafinha could be joined in England by his brother. Thiago Alcantara is heavily linked with a move to Liverpool after deciding to leave Bayern Munich. If both complete their moves, they'll actually be in the same city.
Celta were interested in making Rafinha's move permanent but the player has made up his mind on a switch to England. Lazio, Fiorentina and Torino wanted him too but were met with the same response. A transfer could be confirmed very soon.
