In the latest update on Juventus midfielder Adrien Rabiot, transfer news expert Fabrizio Romano has confirmed that there is no possibility of Rabiot departing from Juventus in January, despite his contract nearing its end and his potential interest in a Premier League challenge in the future. Romano, in an exclusive contribution to the Daily Briefing, has clarified the situation.
According to a recent report from Calciomercato, Juventus is eager to extend Rabiot’s contract. However, Manchester United and Newcastle have also expressed interest in the 28-year-old former Paris Saint-Germain player.
While Rabiot could potentially serve as an upgrade for the underperforming Casemiro in Manchester United’s midfield, Newcastle could benefit from his presence as cover for the suspended Sandro Tonali, who is set to be unavailable for nearly a year.
Nonetheless, when discussing Rabiot’s situation, Romano made it abundantly clear that there is no chance of him leaving Juventus in January. The club is determined to retain him and will offer him a new contract. Currently, there have been no contacts with other clubs, even though Rabiot has expressed a desire to play in the Premier League at some point. For Juventus, Rabiot continues to be a vital and indispensable player.
