Juventus’ best chance to make money from the sale of Adrien Rabiot is in the January transfer window, but they could be forced to keep him until the end of the season.
The Frenchman is in the final year of his current contract at the Allianz Stadium, and Juve is likely to lose him as a free agent. He has shown no willingness to extend his stay, prompting Juve to consider a January sale to make some money off his departure.
However, the Bianconeri have been without Paul Pogba since he moved to the club in the summer due to injuries.
A Football Italia report reveals that Juve cannot lose another midfielder and will not sell Rabiot without Pogba returning to full fitness.
This means the Frenchman will remain with them and leave as a free agent in the summer unless the Bianconeri can convince him to sign a new contract.
Juve FC says
Pogba’s injury has been a terrible blow to us and it continues to negatively affect our plans because we were hoping to build our midfield around him.
We need to pray that he is fit and doesn’t become another injury-prone player in our books like Arthur Melo.
