Manchester United ready to make big offer for Juventus midfielder

Manchester United are reportedly weighing up the possibility of signing Juventus midfielder Adrien Rabiot in the summer when he becomes a free agent.  

Rabiot has had something of a resurgence this season for Juventus after a tough period last year. He was widely expected to leave the club last summer but a move failed to happen and he stuck around and has been impressive since. 

Rabiot's contract is due to expire in the summer, with the player already admitting during the 2022/23 season that he would love the opportunity to test himself in the Premier League in the future.

"I have always said that I’d like to play in England in my career. I still have that desire. I’d like to evolve in the Premier League,". He said, in an interview with The Athletic, last December.

With Rabiot now in the final three months of his contract, it makes sense why reports are now emanating about a potential transfer to the Premier League.

According to a report in Football Insider, Manchester United could return for Rabiot this summer when he will become a free agent.

Manchester United continue to be interested in Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong, However, the lack of a transfer fee for Rabiot makes this an excellent opportunity for United boss Erik ten Hag to bolster his midfield and give Casemiro a highly talented partner in the middle of the park.

He has been a regular starter for Juventus this season, notching seven goals and two assists across 29 appearances.
