Barcelona want €35-40m, so they could well agree terms with the option to buy worth €30m plus various bonuses.

It would, crucially, be a free six-month loan, so Inter do not have any obligations.

That is particularly important, as Rafinha has not played since April 2017 due to injury problems and his fitness levels are something of a mystery.
