Barcelona responds to Man United’s desire.. Will the Sancho and Rafinha deal happen?
The relationship between Jadon Sancho, the Manchester United player, and his coach, Erik Ten Hag, is becoming more tense day after day, and the situation is not much different from Rafinha, the Barcelona player, who lost his starting position in the Catalan team’s lineup.
Ten Hag is seeking to get rid of Sancho, after the relationship between the two parties became tense, and the English player left his coach’s accounts, following his statements in which he attacked the Dutch coach. For his part, Ten Hag believes that Sancho is not giving everything he has in training and matches with the team.
According to what the Spanish newspaper “Sport” reported, the Barcelona administration expressed its approval of the exchange deal proposed by the Manchester United administration, but it will have to get rid of Rafinha in the first place before taking that step.
The Spanish newspaper indicated in its report that the Barcelona administration was considering a swap deal between Sancho and Rafinha, especially in light of the news that linked the latter to leaving the Catalan team.
Rafinha has not yet performed at the level required of him with the Catalan team, and in the presence of the young winger Lamine Yamal, who is showing his best level, he pushed the Barcelona administration to quickly get rid of the Brazilian player.
According to press reports, Rafinha’s departure from Barcelona will not be easy, as Deco, the sporting director of the current Catalan team, is the former agent of the Brazilian player, who contributed greatly to his arrival to the Blaugrana in 2022.
