Ivan Rakitic unlikely to return to Sevilla in January

Rakitic looks set to leave Barcelona in the winter after falling out of favour, but Monchi has all but ruled out any chance of the midfielder coming back to the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan.
“I don’t know about in the years to come, but right now that is very difficult,” Monchi added when asked about bringing Rakitic back to Nervion.
”He has a contract with Barcelona and is in Barcelona. He has not lost his affection for our club but as of today it is unlikely.”
