Barcelona midfielder Ivan Rakitic has said the Camp Nou is the 'perfect' home for him at present, despite the developing media saga surrounding his long-term future.
Rumours linking the 30-year-old with an exit went into overdrive after the club confirmed the signing of Frenkie de Jong, with many expecting Rakitic to move on under the challenge to his first-team place.
Manchester United and Inter have long been linked with potential moves for the Croatian, with Bayern also emerging as a recent contender, and it seemed to be taken for granted that he would indeed be keen to discuss a potential summer switch.
