Wolves striker Rafa Mir has reportedly been offered to Barcelona, according to 'Sport'. His agent, Jorge Mendes, took advantage of his display against Ivory Coast at the Olympic Games to give Barca the option of signing him.
In Tokyo, all eyes are on Rafa Mir. Thanks to him, Spain reached the semi-finals with a 5-2 win over Ivory Coast. He scored a hat trick that his agent plans to take advantage of. 'Sport' reports that Jorge Mendes has put the option of signing the Wolves striker on the table for Barca. The agent believes that he could bring a lot to the Catalan side.
According to this media outlet, Barcelona already had the option of signing Rafa Mir months ago. However, at that time they refused the offer. Jorge Mendes, his agent, is back in the race now that the Wolves striker is on everyone's lips after his display with Spain's national team in the quarter-finals of the Olympics.
Barca are reportedly looking for a deal for Braithwaite and Rey Manaj. That is why Rafa Mir's agent has opted to offer the attacker back to the Spanish club. Rafa Mir, a former player of Huesca, would like to return to LaLiga. Now it only remains to be seen if Barca would have room in their plans for him.
In his last season, Rafa Mir played 39 games for SD Huesca. He was a starter in 33 of them and scored 16 goals. Huesca are rubbing their hands over his possible transfer: they have 25% of his rights, so they would get a good deal from his sale.
