Manchester United are keen on signing French international midfielder Adrien Rabiot, a target for Arsenal and Liverpool, this summer.
A report from 90min claims that Manchester United have currently opened talks to secure the signature of Adrien Rabiot on a free transfer. Meanwhile, they will face competition from clubs like Arsenal and Liverpool as well.
Rabiot has had an impressive campaign with club and country. So it is no surprise that the top Premier League clubs are looking to sign him. The 28-year-old is at the peak of his powers, and he could make an immediate impact at Old Trafford next season.
It is no secret that Manchester United need to bring in midfield reinforcements. And the French international has emerged as a viable target for the Red Devils. His contract with Juventus expires at the end of the season, and he will be available as a free agent.
Rabiot comes with extensive experience and a proven pedigree of performing at a high level. He was a key player for France as they reached the World Cup finals earlier this season. He has been an important player for Juventus as well. Rabiot has 11 goals and four assists to his name across all competitions this season.
The French international has shown his quality in Serie A since joining Juventus, and he could be open to trying out a new challenge now. The opportunity to play in the Premier League could be an attractive option for him. And Manchester United have opened talks with his entourage.
Manchester United will have to find a quality midfield partner for Casemiro, and the 28-year-old Frenchman seems like an ideal fit. He will help the Red Devils dominate proceedings in the middle of the park. Rabiot will add control, composure and physicality to the side as well.
Similarly, Arsenal will have to bring in a quality partner for Thomas Partey and the 28-year-old would be a superb signing, especially on a free transfer. Securing the services of a player of his experience and quality on a free transfer could prove to be a massive bargain as well.
