Ivan Rakitic's future could be at Atletico Madrid. El Larguero on Cadena SER have said that the Croatian is a target for the Rojiblancos. He has been linked with them for some time, including in 2014-15, when he joined Barcelona. The Catalans are looking to sell players to raise funds.

Rakitic's deal goes until 2021 at Camp Nou and he has a 125 million euro release clause. He turns 32 on March 10. With Barca he has played 292 games (185 in La Liga).

 

This has been a bad season for Rakitic because he wasn't in Valverde's plans and the club wanted to sell him. He has won 4 Ligas, 4 Copas, 2 Supercopas de España, and one Champions League, Supercopa de Europa and Club World Cup during his time in Catalonia.
