Rafinha Alcantara: Arthur reminds me of Xavi Hernandez
Barca's new Brazilian playmaker pulled the strings in midfield
It is not just Barcelona fans getting excited about new signing Arthur after his impressive debut against Tottenham in a pre-season friendly. His team-mate Rafinha Alcantara is excited too.
"He reminds me... I don't like to make comparisons, but he has the touch of Xavi, the way that he touches the ball. He's a great, great signing for Barcelona," said Rafinha after Barca's win on penalties.
Asked about Malcom, Rafinha said: "He's a great player, he unbalances defenders, he's great one on one, I expect a lot from him."
On his own future, Rafinha added: "Only God knows."
