Tottenham are set to add a new star to their team ahead of the unveiling of their new stadium as they have reportedly entered the race for Barcelona midfielder, Rafinha Alcantara.
Rafinha spent last season on-loan at Inter Milan but the Italians seem uninterested in making his switch permanent, leaving his future in doubt. He is not part of Ernesto Valverde’s plan for next season and with too many options midfield, his future lies elsewhere.
West Ham are also actively looking to bring him to England, however, they now face serious competition from Tottenham. Barcelona have declared him surplus to requirements, but they would also not allow him to leave for any price that is less than £30 million.
Tottenham are sweating over the future of Mousa Dembele as he approaches the twilight of his career. Spurs are only willing to offer him a short-term deal, but he is considering offers from China that would offer him a longer-term contract as well as a major wage hike.
Rafinha who joined Inter in January played 17 Serie A games, netting twice and providing 3 assists.
