Barca reject Premier League offer for Rakitic

Rakitic is going through a rough patch at Barcelona. The Croat, a key player since his arrival at the club, has been given a secondary role this season.

Valverde isn't giving opportunities to Rakitic and you just have to look at the number of minutes he has played: 255 in a total of 10 matches.

He doesn't have a place in the Barcelona team and this has made him think of leaving, even in January. In fact, the player spoke of his sadness in an interview and Valverde didn't know what to respond.

His contract runs out in 2021 and he won't lack suitors. In fact, 'Sport' notes that Barca rejected an offer of 15 million from a Premier League club.

But that's not it, as even Atlético seem to be interested in him and could offer up to 40 million for him, according to 'Movistar*'.

However, according to 'Mundo Deportivo', Atlético aren't thinking of making an offer for Rakitic.
