Adrien Rabiot is a player that has been linked with Manchester United plenty of times over the past few seasons, though nothing has come to fruition yet having been on the books at Juventus for the past half-decade. However, with his contract expiring in the next couple of weeks, the Frenchman appears to be edging closer and closer to the exit door in Turin, with Tuttosport claiming that the Frenchman is waiting for the Red Devils to make their move…

Rabiot is on the decline now!The drop off from last World cup to this Euros is massive!We need to avoid cast offs from Juventus after they have milked the best years out of him! Without Kante,France midfield would be overrun!
Don't think he'll join, but if he does I'm fine with it as long as his wages are reasonable.
We could buy two sunday league players and it would be an. Upgrade on mctomacrap and Anthonacrap
So, Utd's recruitment team have had Rabiot as a top contender for two years but presumably did not ever consider Zielinski during the time, who has joined Inter on a free?
People need to remember that despite still being the biggest club in the world we are a mid table premier league football team at the moment… Mid table teams do mid table tranfers and deals… Its just where we are right now.
A washed up 30 year old.
He's a merc for hire, for the right wages he might be useful for rotation
Ste please check out Emmanuel Agbadou of Reims he would be a grate backup CB for united his underrated
laughing at people who don't know how big of a fraud he is,i have been watching him for 6 years in juve trust me he is not him
I hope he leaves juve , man utd. can be robbed on the mercato easily.
I think he'll eventually renew his contract with Juventus but if he doesn't for whatever reason than signing Rabiot in a free ( on reasonable wages ) wouldn't be a bad bit of business especially with finances being restrictive. Fofana 25m & Rabiot on a free would vastly improve our midfield
Why are there rumors that we only have 35 million? Why is it so low? Last 2 seasons we have now freed up salaries of: Ronaldo, De Gea, Martial, Varane etc..
Plus there are many players we can sell this window, Sancho, Greenwood, Maguire, Casemiro, and more.. Surely the budget is gonna be a lot higher than 35 million otherwise we wouldn't be making bids from Branthwaite already.
Fuck reporting on this crap ste – we are being used ur not stupid
If he's on a free and doesn't cost a fortune in wages (I would think the 180-220k mark is about what he's worth) then I'd go for it and offload one of Eriksen or Casemiro, my pref being Eriksen due to Casemiro still being the only recognized and accomplished n°6 in the squad. Rabiot won't be happy with a 6 role, and we won't get the best out of him or Kobbie by putting them there. We should also consider that an 8 shouldn't be a priority. We already have Kobbie, Eriksen, McTominay, Mount and Bruno who can play in that role, be it their best/ preferred position or just gap filler we have players who can play there.
What Steve said about his mum is also true. I believe she's his agent, and she believes him to be one of the best in the world in his position. I spent 10 years in France and I can tell you that anyone who follows football thinks that Rabiot's mum is both comical and problematic. She's had falling outs with other parents and players around the French National squad and PSG, including Mbappe, which most accept as a reason for him having left PSG as she was asking for outrageous terms in his contract. She tends to blow up her son's ego a lot, and honestly acts like the bloke is on the level of Zidane or Kroos.
All of this would have to be managed, easier said than done, but if could come into United and hit the ground running, giving us a more combative and forward thinking midfield then go for it. But I would much rather personally we pick up a deputy for Casemiro on a free, or a young fella for pennies, and give Mainoo the 8 role for his own. Like I said, we have Scotty, Mount, Eriksen or Bruno that can also cover that role. No replacement for Casemiro other than asking someone to fill in (probs Kobbie, potentially stifling his progression).
A recognized n°6, central defender, right winger and a striker. Those are the areas crying out for new signings. Rabiot feels like a gamble for an already overly saturated area of the pitch, as well as being potentially problematic with squad drama, wages etc if ever he's not of the right level for week-in week-out Premier League games (no guarantee either). I would tread carefully.
Rabiot looks like another Casemiro transfer gone wrong. He is 29. In another year or so, his form and fitness would jump off Mount Kilimanjaro. Why can't we ever think of longevity when planning transfers. I hope INEOS don't go down the Rabiot rabbit hole for all of our sakes.
Rabiot would make zero difference, why get rabiot when we had Fred and got rid of him
Also why tf we going for him at 29
Bring him in asap and the midfield is covered from the exit of McTominay (get cash from Newcastle for McTommy, we need more cash in the bank to spend on defenders).
I'm sure we went through this before and his mum said he wanted 800k a week to sign because he was on a free transfer
Greenwood to Athleti Williams to Utd.
A strong addition to the club’s medical room. Will not be surprise to see banter club paying him more than 300k a week for him to join their injury list for the next 5 years! 😂
Isn't this the one whose mum is his manager and is an effing nightmare to deal with, just another version of Pogba, and Isn't rven as good as he was?
He's a slow mofo. Don't need him
I get the feeling we’re chasing another Frankie De Jong, this is the third time we’ve trying to get Rabiot, if he wanted to come he would have came before. Probably just looking for a payday!
It feels like we have learnt….Another Mercenary🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
On a short term deal I would take him. Max 2/3 years.
He’s trouble stay away from him
Radiot no thanks refused us on three occasions fuck NO.
Why we always linked with Rabiot. He's bad news. Don't even want him for free.
Rabiot, eriksen, mainoo, neves, bruno, mctominay and amrabat is a decent enough midfield.
Getting rabiot on a free then getting Alvarez and then signing amrabat on a permanent deal could be key for developing mainoo and getting profits for outgoings wilist getting upgrades for mctomnay, erikson and Casemiro is excellent options instead of going all in for joa Neves could be a smarter option in my opinion that means we will only spend 70 million for 2 midfielders ie amrabat and Alvarez then rabiot on a free that’s a bargain wilist adding depth into the squad rabiot and Alvarez could be upgrades to erikson and Casemiro i think they will help mainoo to develop
No thanks. He migth have a year or two left in the tank. Maybe.
What has this club come to??? Rabiot????????? Every single time I watch him, without fail, he is the worst player on the pitch. I swear to god, if we sign him I am so done with this club 🤦♂️
And pay him insane wages….when will this shit culture end, bringing in aged players demanding huge wage. Stop linking players who are over 27 years of age to manutd anymore
I'd have him instead of Casemiro or Erickson
Rabiot is just and average player. Looking forward to see him leaving Juventus
My worry is if he comes in we will have the circus back in town with his mum and although hes an upgrade on Mainoo he won’t play with Mainoo it will be over Mainoo.
Rabiot is not good enough
Rabiot looked good the other day for France. Will give some bite and drive in the midfield if we can get him.
For a bossman, I think it's gonna be good – especially for kobie as he will learn and get to manage his minutes. But we sure hell would need another 6 to cover those 2.
What, we're not linked with rabiot again are we 😂😂, another disaster transfer waiting to happen, blokes heads so far up his own arse which is exactly what we don't need
He'd be good competition for K Mainoo
It's the same every year, he's not going to come, and do we really want him? I'd say no
This is a second time Man U is trying to sign Rabiot on a free… Let's see where it ends
He would be a decent option but wage demands will no doubt be excessive and Ineos need to move away from that usual bullshit
Dealing with momma might just be a bridge too far.
Rabiot's mum will have the final say!
What happened to the no over 25 year olds rule
