Barcelona midfielder Rafinha Alcantara has played down talk linking him with a move to Chelsea. The 18-year-old recently made his first-team debut for Barca and he is highly-regarded at Camp Nou. Chelsea have been credited with an interest in Alcantara after tracking him since last summer. Alcantara, who is the younger brother of Barca star Thiago, is ignoring talk linking him with the Blues and revealed he is close to signing a new deal at Barcelona. "Chelsea? I don't pay attention to these stories, really," said Alcantara. "My objective is to renew my contract with Barcelona soon. We're close to a deal."
