Ivan Rakitic

Manchester United are still interested in signing Barcelona midfielder Ivan Rakitic this summer, despite the Croatia international has already agreed a deal with Serie A giants Inter Milan.

The 31-year-old recently took to Instagram to call on the media to “stop inventing things” amid reports surfacing that the veteran midfielder was heading for Milan in this summer’s transfer window.

Manchester United have reportedly joined the race to sign Ivan Rakitic from Barcelona, according to Spanish outlet Mundo Deportivo.

The Croatian midfielder is contracted to Barca until July of 2021 but the La Liga champions are said to be willing to sell him for around £43m, according to a report.
