Right side defender Rafinha could leave Coritiba in the next days. The U20 international who played the last U20 World Cup in the Netherlands will be transferred to Schalke 04 for a value estimated at 5 million Euros.
Holder on the right side of the defense of the Paranaense club since the beginning of the year, Rafinha was the revelation of the youth world cup for Brazil.
Schalke appear to be ahead of Borussia Dortmund who are also interested in the defender.
If the transfer is confirmed, Coritiba could lose in the one week space two players disovered by the club. Central defender Miranda left Curitiba for France in order to sign with FC Sochaux for 2 million Euros.
