Rafinha will arrive hungry

The Brazilian has only played 221 minutes since May because Pochettino forgot about him this season and his biggest handicap may be inactivity.

The main unknown about the signing of Rafinha Alcantara is his extensive history of injuries, although the most serious are part of the past and in the last two years his longest period of convalescence has been of one month for an ankle sprain in October 2019. The biggest problem with which you can get now is your lack of rhythm since last May Pochettino he has only granted 221 minutes of play, although this will give you freshness and hunger to vindicate yourself as txuri urdin.

The 19/20 season at Celta enjoyed a lot of continuity, playing 2,151 minutes in 30 official matches and last season, his first year in Paris, was relatively satisfactory from that point of view, since he lined up at 31 official matches (16 as a starter), totaling 1,493 minutes. It is in the current campaign where the confidence of Pochettino in the Brazilian he has dropped sharply and has only played 221 minutes in five league games, although in nine other games he was called up without playing. He has not entered a single call for the Champions League.
