Adrien Rabiot seems inclined to leave Juventus should Massimiliano Allegri depart in the summer, thus boosting Manchester United’s hopes.
According to Tutto Juve, Adrien Rabiot could quit Juventus if manager Massimiliano Allegri leaves in the summer. The 29-year-old World Cup finalist stayed in Turin for the Italian boss and could now consider offers from elsewhere, boosting Manchester United’s hopes.
Adrien Rabiot to quit Juventus?
Juventus struggled last season to convince Adrien Rabiot to stay at the club, and the issue dragged well beyond his contract expiry. His long-term future was always considered doubtful, as he only signed a one-year extension last summer.
Rabiot had been waiting to see how the season transpired and also focus on his role at the club. Massimiliano Allegri trusts the Frenchman and considers him a sure starter whenever he’s fit. Hence, the suggestion is that the 29-year-old World Cup finalist stay at the club for the Italian manager.
The summer could change his scenery, as Allegri’s future remains doubtful beyond the current campaign. In turn, Rabiot could leave should the manager depart Juventus. He considers the Italian instrumental in his decision to stay here, and he might now lean towards an exit as a free agent.
Rabiot has plenty of experience and has come close to leaving Juventus for two summers running. He might get third-time lucky this time, as there’s nothing Juventus can do should he decide to quit the club and take up a new challenge elsewhere.
Manchester United’s hopes boosted
Rabiot’s decision could boost the hopes of several clubs keen on the midfielder, with Manchester United likely to chase the 29-year-old World Cup finalist’s signature. There are plenty of sides chasing the Frenchman, but the Red Devils came very close two years ago to signing him.
Manchester United have kept constant tabs on his development and will be watching his situation closely now after the latest report on his future. He will be a good signing for Erik ten Hag, as the Dutchman could use the Frenchman’s experience and help his squad progress to the next level.
