Arsenal, Tottenham and Barcelona target Adrien Rabiot is being tipped to leave Paris Saint-Germain in January and join Serie A side AC Milan.
Speaking to Tuttosport, as cited on Calciomercato, Giuseppe Bozzo believes that Milan are emerging as the leading contenders to sign the French midfielder in the new year.
With the new UEFA rules, January will be a real market, not just a market for repairs. I think that Rabiot, given that his contract expires in 2019, won’t renew with PSG because he wants more playing time. This is also why I think Milan have an advantage in the race, rather than Juventus.
Rabiot has been a long-term target for the Gunners and has been linked with a move to London on several occasions.
Tottenham joined the race to sign him over the summer when it looked like he could be on his way out of PSG, while Barcelona were also keen to snap him up to add to their midfield.
Juventus were another team that were believed to be a potential destination for the French midfielder over the summer, with Rabiot looking to nail down regular first-team football this season.
AC Milan’s technical director Leonardo joined the club this summer and previously worked for the French champions, a relationship that they will be hoping to utilise in their pursuit of Rabiot.
