BARCELONA ace Rafinha has hardly featured for Barcelona this season - and from this evidence it is easy to see why.

The Brazilian playmaker, 25, took advantage of the international break to visit former team-mate Arda Turan in Turkey.

And after spotting some kids having a kickabout, the duo could not help but get involved.

Unfortunately for the kids, Rafinha managed to boot their ball into a tree and got it stuck.

One of the kids was able to shake the ball free but Rafinha watched on with his hands on his head.

The Brazilian was linked with a move to Inter Milan this summer after failing to make the grade at the Nou Camp.

 The Brazilian could not believe he got the ball stuck

But the move did not materialise and he has just a Spanish Super Cup appearance to his name.

He will hope to get some game time as Barca compete on a number of fronts this season.

 But fortunately they managed to shake it free and continue their game

And another loan move or permanent exit could be on the cards for Rafinha - who joined Inter on a short-term deal last season - in January.

Defending champs Barca are currently joint top of the table after winning their opening three matches.
