Report: Inter handed transfer blow by Barcelona

Playing for the Nerrazurri on a loan during the 2017/18 season, Rafinha quickly became a fundamental player for Inter. However, the San Siro side failed to purchase the Brazilian, who now is set to join Real Betis
 
In fact, an agreement is imminent, as the player's father-agent Mazinho has arrived in Sevilla to finalize the move. The only thing missing is a complete agreement on the contract for Rafinha, although it doesn't look like this will be a problem. 
 
However, his departure wouldn't be the only blow to Inter, as they have long negotiated the sale of Joao Mario with Real Betis. The arrival of Rafinha in Sevilla would, therefore, put Joao Mario's move on hold. 
 
In just one move, thus, Barcelona would hand Inter a major transfer blow. It wouldn't be the first time against Italian clubs, having already snatched Malcom from Roma in the last second.
