Veteran defender Rafinha wants to part ways with Bayern Munich in the January transfer window and return to his native Brazil, according to his agent.

The 32-year-old's contract with the Bavarian giants expires this summer, but after playing in Europe for over 12-years Rafinha's intentions are to return to his family in Brazil.

However, the defender will have to negotiate his way out of the last few months of his contract, a task which may prove difficult as Bayern value his contribution so much that they have already offered Rafinha a two-year extension.

In an interview with Brazilian radio station Itatiaia, the star's agent Lincoln admitted he is unable to negotiate a return to a Brazilian club whilst his client was still under contract with Bayern.
