Juventus will struggle to keep Adrien Rabiot beyond this season, which has opened the door for him to leave the club in January.
The Frenchman has entered the final year of his current contract, and this has been arguably the best season of his career in Turin.
The Bianconeri even wanted to sell him in the summer, but now they regret not offering him an extension a long time ago, as he shines at club and country.
He is drawing the attention of Atlético de Madrid who could be among his suitors at the end of this season, but they want to sign him next month.
A report on Calciomercato.it reveals that they are prepared to offer Juventus Saul Niguez in exchange for the Frenchman in January.
This deal is designed to ensure Juve don’t lose it to zero. Instead, they will have a replacement out of the box.
Juve FC says
Rabiot has been great for us and unfortunately he could leave the club at the end of this season as a free agent.
However, this proposal might be a smarter way to get rid of the World Cup finalist because Saul is also a good player to have on our team.
