Adrien Rabiot, the French international, is now a free agent after his contract with Juventus expired last month. He is well-regarded for his adaptability in central midfield and has drawn interest from multiple clubs. Reports indicate he is looking for a £7.6 million per year dea.
According to French journalist Romain Collet-Gaudin, Rabiot is currently in talks with Manchester United and Liverpool. However, it seems the 29-year-old midfielder is leaning towards signing with Manchester United and is close to finalizing terms with them. This development is a setback for Liverpool, who recently missed out on defender Leny Yoro to Manchester United.
If Rabiot joins Manchester United, it would be another significant acquisition for them this transfer window, despite the club’s Europa League status compared to Liverpool’s Champions League participation next season. Manchester United’s recent signings like Joshua Zirkzee and Leny Yoro, despite missing out on Champions League football, illustrate the club’s allure to top players.
Under Erik ten Hag’s management, July has been fruitful for Manchester United in the transfer market, with improvements in defense and attack already secured. Adding a seasoned midfielder like Rabiot would further bolster their squad significantly.
