Juventus midfielder Adrien Rabiot has reportedly been offered to the likes of Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur.
According to a report from The Times, 27-year-old French international Adrien Rabiot has been offered to Premier League clubs, Arsenal and Tottenham.
Rabiot will be a free agent at the end of the season, and it will be interesting to see if the Italian giants can sell him permanently next month. The January transfer window will be Juventus’s final opportunity to recoup some money for him, and a move to the Premier League would be ideal for all parties.
Rabiot was outstanding for France at the 2022 FIFA World Cup, and he helped them reach the final of the competition. He has the technical and physical attributes to succeed in England, and a move to Arsenal or Tottenham could be ideal for him.
The Gunners need to add more creativity and depth to their midfield, and the French international would be the ideal partner for Thomas Partey and Granit Xhaka. The 27-year-old is in his peak right now, and he could make an immediate impact at Arsenal and boost their title chances.
Arsenal are at the top of the table right now, and a quality addition in January will only help them sustain the title challenge. But recent reports have claimed that the north Londoners are unwilling to meet the player’s wage demands.
On the other hand, Tottenham, who have also shown interest in the 27-year-old World Cup finalist, need to add some variety to their midfield as well. And Rabiot will add a different skill set to the side compared to Antonio Conte’s current options.
Spurs will be hoping to secure UEFA Champions League football and challenge for a trophy this season. A signing like Rabiot could galvanise the Tottenham squad and give them the belief to finish the season strongly. Furthermore, the fact that he is available for a nominal price in January makes the move a no-brainer for both clubs.
Arsenal and Tottenham will be able to secure a pre-contract agreement with the midfielder regarding a free transfer in the summer as well. However, it makes sense for them to pay a reasonable price and bring the move forward in January so that he can help them finish the season strongly.
