Manchester United 'target' Adrien Rabiot makes transfer confession as he lifts lid on time at Man City

Adrien Rabiot has lifted the lid on his time at Manchester City during his youth career, as he reiterated his "desire" to one day play in the Premier League after being linked with a move to Manchester United over the summer.

Rabiot was part of City's academy back in 2008, but the then 13-year-old would only be in Manchester for six months before he returned to France. The French midfielder has since gone on to have an illustrious career playing for both Paris Saint-Germain and most recently Juventus.

The 27-year-old is in the final year of his contract at the Serie A side, meaning that as of January 1 he is free to discuss and agree terms with other clubs outside of Italy for a move in the summer. United were looking to pursue a move for Rabiot, yet a deal failed to materialise before the September 1 deadline.
