First active in the arrivals department with the reinforcements of Vitinha, Hugo Ekitike and Nordi Mukiele, PSG intends to reduce its workforce this summer. For now, the capital club has recorded the departures of Alphonse Areola and Marcin Bulka while Angel Di Maria and Xavi Simons have left the club free of any contract. Colin Dagba has been loaned to RC Strasbourg but the Parisian team does not intend to stop there. With several elements placed away from the group in a “loft”, the PSG employs the great means to push certain undesirables towards the exit.
On loan to Real Sociedad for the last six months last season, Rafinha is one of those players expected to leave the Parisian ship before the end of the summer transfer window. According to information from journalist Saber Desfarges, the Spanish-Brazilian midfielder was even very close to signing up with a Middle Eastern club in recent days, before finally retracting for personal reasons. The identity of the training concerned, however, did not filter.

The vice is therefore tightening around the former resident of FC Barcelona. A time mentioned on the side of Sociedad as part of a permanent transfer, the 29-year-old attacking midfielder is still waiting for a breakthrough from the Basque club. The training trained by Imanol Alguacil could however play the clock and return to the charge in the last days of the transfer window, surely aware that it is in a position of strength on this file.
