Man United is building a team that no one will like to play against…I tried to sign him but he told me he’s a Man United fan, signing such player automatically made you undefeatable, I’m happy for them anyway”

According to Teamtalk, Manchester United are in “constant contact” over the potential free transfer of Juventus midfielder Adrien Rabiot, who is currently starring for France at Euro 2024.

Manchester United were linked with a transfer for Rabiot in 2022, with BBC Sport highlighting the midfielder’s “controversial” career ahead of a proposed move. The deal fell through, however, with Rabiot remaining at Juventus.

He then signed a one-year contract extension last summer, with his deal set to expire on June 30. It doesn’t seem like an agreement with the Italian club is nearing, either, as he looks to explore options elsewhere in Europe.

The report suggests that Arsenal and Aston Villa are both monitoring the 29-year-old’s situation, too, though Manchester United’s interest is the most prominent at this moment in time.

If Manchester United are to complete a deal for Rabiot, it would represent good business for a player valued at €35m by Transfermarkt.

Rabiot has started all three of France’s games at Euro 2024, playing in both central midfield and on the left of a four. Didier Descahmps prefers playing Rabiot to the likes of Eduardo Camavinga, trusting the Juve midfielder’s physicality and control over the Real Madrid man.
