However, it seems that the 31-year-old Croat has no intention of changing teams. Speaking to Mundo Deportivo, Rakitic said he is happy playing for Barcelona.
"I can't explain the rumors about Inter. I have a lot of respect for other teams, and Inter is a great club. At the moment, I am where I want to be. The fact that other clubs are interested in me just shows that I am doing something right. I am happy being at Barcelona, my family likes it here too. I have no other thoughts.
"I did not create these rumors. I still have three years left on my contract and I am happy here," said Rakitic.
This season, the Croatian played 53 games for Barcelona, scoring 5 goals and providing 10 assists.
