Brazilian player Rafinha Diaz, one of the key members of Barcelona\u2019s first team, surprised the club during the recent La Liga match between Barcelona and Las Palmas. The game ended in a 0-0 draw at Montju\u00efc Stadium in the 15th round of the Spanish league.<\/p>\n
Catalan media pointed out a concerning incident during the match, noting Rafinha\u2019s refusal to pass the captain\u2019s armband to Frenkie de Jong when he entered the field. This behavior was also observed in a previous match against Young Boys in the Champions League, despite De Jong being the third captain of the team, following Ter Stegen and Araujo, and ahead of Rafinha and Pedri.<\/p>\n
Reports suggest that Hansi Flick expressed his anger over Rafinha\u2019s actions, warning him not to repeat such behavior to avoid disrupting the team\u2019s unity during the crucial part of the season. The incident has raised questions about why Rafinha didn\u2019t follow Barcelona\u2019s traditions, with some speculating whether the situation would have been different had Araujo been in De Jong\u2019s place, or if it was an issue specifically with Frenkie.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
