Valencia want to bring in the Brazilian attacking midfielder

Last summer the possibility existed. Now the door is open again. Valencia are interested in signing Barcelona midfielder Rafinha. Los Che, per Superdeporte, are evaluating a loan move for the Brazilian now that he is fit after injury.

Rafinha does not think that is a bad idea as he wants to recover fully and get back playing again. 

Unzue's Celta Vigo are also interested, but last summer Rafinha's father Mazinho went to Valencia's Paterna training ground to negotiate his possible arrival with sporting director Jose Ramon Alexanko. 

Mareclino likes the idea of the deal, as he wants an extra midfielder to help give rest to the likes of Kondogbia and Dani Parejo.

Rafinha wants to play and get game-time to try and get into Tite's Brazil squad for the Russia 2018 World Cup.
