A new report has shed light on Adrien Rabiot’s stance on his future amidst reports linking him with a move to Tottenham Hotspur.
While Tottenham’s priority is to sign an attacking midfielder and a winger in the final five days of the transfer window, we heard a very interesting transfer link on Tuesday night.
It was revealed by Fabrizio Romano that Adrien Rabiot has been offered to Tottenham as well as Manchester United.
The journalist explained that the experienced midfielder is expected to leave Marseille before the window slams shut, but made it clear that Spurs are not in active talks over a deal for the 30-year-old.
Adrien Rabiot wants to stay at Marseille despite Tottenham links
Gianluca Di Marzio has now provided a very interesting update about Rabiot while reporting on AC Milan’s interest in the midfielder.
He claims that the Rossoneri are keen to sign a number six before Monday’s deadline and have turned their attention to the French international.
The journalist says that Marseille are willing to let Rabiot go for €15m (£13m), but there is one big problem.
Di Marzio says that Milan are getting the feeling that Rabiot’s priority this summer is to remain at the Orange Velodrome.
Why Spurs are unlikely to make a move for Rabiot
£13m for a player of Rabiot’s experience and quality is arguably a steal, and a few clubs in the Premier League might be interested.
However, Tottenham Hotspur are unlikely to be one of those, with Thomas Frank well-stocked with options in the middle of the park despite Yves Bissouma being close to an exit from Spurs.
Besides, Rabiot is currently on more than £100,000 per week at Marseille, and Tottenham would be reluctant to hand a big contract to a player who is now 30 years of age.
