Lazio, AC Milan & Aston Villa All Keen on PSG Midfielder Rafinha

Lazio, AC Milan, and Aston Villa are all interested in Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Rafinha.

As reported by Spanish newspaper AS and Mundo Deportivo (via La Lazio Siamo Noi) earlier today, the 28-year-old Brazilian midfielder is not in coach Mauricio Pochettino’s plans and so he could leave Paris after just one year.

The Biancocelesti, the Rossoneri, and Premier League side Aston Villa are all keen on Rafinha, who is a technical midfielder that could take the place of Luis Alberto in Maurizio Sarri’s 4-3-3 system.

The Brazilian midfielder already has experience in Italy with Inter, having made 17 appearances and scoring two goals for the Nerazzurri.

The sale of Rafinha would also be good news for La Liga giants Barcelona, as they would receive 35% of the fee.

Contracted to PSG until 2023, Rafinha made 23 Ligue 1 appearances last season, for a total of 1366 minutes. In that time, he provided five assists but only made 15 starts.
