What is the most recent Manchester United transfer rumor?
Erik ten Hag seems to want Rabiot at Old Trafford before his debut season in command. The United manager was supposedly on board with a £15 million trade, but the deal fell through and the midfielder remained at Juventus.
Rabiot was linked with a move to Manchester United before the New Year, and it appears that he is still of interest to United officials after appearing in 48 games for his present club during the 2022/23 season, providing 17 goals.
According to recent sources, a definite offer has already been made to the athlete, who will become a free agent in a couple of weeks when his Juventus contract officially expires.
Sport Witness has received a new report on Rabiot from the Spanish newspaper AS, citing Atletico Madrid’s interest in the midfielder. However, they add that United is currently the ‘big favorite’ to sign Rabiot, in what appears to be a major boost for Ten Hag and co.
Adrien Rabiot, who is he?
Rabiot would offer Ten Hag an experienced and flexible alternative in midfield, and with the 28-year-old’s Transfermarkt valuation now standing at €30m, a transfer appears to be a sound business decision.
He can play central, holding, or left midfield and was once described as a ‘complete player by great midfielder Andrea Pirlo, who said:
“He is a complete player; I have rarely seen someone so physically and technically strong.”
“He has no idea how much room for improvement he has, and we work on the mental side of things to make him realize he is a champion.” Game after game, he improves.”
With Scott McTominay’s future uncertain, the Red Devils may lose a midfielder this summer, therefore Rabiot might be considered as a strong addition after finishing the season as Juventus’ best-performing player, according to WhoScored.
He would add a winning mindset to United’s squad, joining the likes of Raphael Varane and Casemiro who have recently arrived from Real Madrid, with the midfielder having won an astounding 24 major awards during his career.
Rabiot has just had a season in which he played a lot of football for Juventus, and his balance might make him a good purchase next year, possibly alongside Casemiro and Bruno Fernandes.
