Arsenal told Brilliant FREE agent ‘is better fit’ ahead of potential £200k-a-week arrival
Arsenal have been told Juventus star Adrien Rabiot is a better fit for them than Manchester United.
The Frenchman has really struggled for game time this season at Juventus, and he wants more guaranteed football at this stage of his career as he is not getting any younger
Despite being one of the most gifted central midfielders in the game – Rabiot has never really adapted to Italian football like many had hoped – and Juventus are also keen to make sure that they get his massive £7M a season wage off the books.
He is out of contract at the end of the season – and with Arsenal looking to add some more quality to the side – Rabiot is a player that is reportedly on the agenda, especially as he would be coming on a free deal.
Speaking to DAZN BET, former Champions League winner Florent Malouda believes his fellow Frenchman is better suited to the Gunners as opposed to United.
He said: “Adrien Rabiot would make a good signing. He’s match fit and he’s playing a lot. But I think he’d be better suited to Arsenal than Man Utd. Although he would be a great signing for anyone with his abilities, he can play in many different positions.
“But it’s important that he has a connection with the coach, that he’s being used well. He’s very talented. You can see for France, he’s doing a lot of work, a lot of dirty work to compensate for the attacking players and he helps to balance any team. He’s a talented player.”
And if you believe the words of reporter Iomie Stanley – he would now be open to a move to the Emirates because of Mikel Arteta – he told icfootballnews:
‘Rabiot is a brilliantly gifted midfielder that just hasn’t adapted to Italian football – his career has not gone how many people had hoped
‘A few seasons ago he would have not even thought about joining ARSENAL because they were not competing for trophies or playing Champions League football.
‘But while they still have some time before they get that – the future i bright under Arteta.
‘This Gunners side is very young and has alot of potential – so that is something that could tempt Rabiot – who is keen to reignite his career.’
