This week, Manchester United announced they agreed a deal with Juventus for midfielder Adrien Rabiot. The Reds have switched their attention to the Frenchman to solve their midfield problems as talks continue to stall with long-term primary target Frenkie de Jong.
The move comes from left-field with little to no links having been made between both parties previously this summer, however, the 2-1 defeat to Brighton on Sunday reinforced the need for Erik ten Hag to add greater quality to his midfield, with a familiar duo of Fred and Scott McTominay again struggling.
Reports in France have suggested that Rabiot i s open to joining United, despite them not being in the Champions League next season. Part of his decision making process is said to root from the fact he believes he would be a guaranteed starter over the likes of McTominay and Fred.
