On Sunday, Barcelona president Joan Laporta reiterated a desire to keep De Jong and the Netherlands international’s desire to stay.

Chelsea and Arsenal have also been linked with Rabiot in the past and could be on alert with Manchester United looking to do a deal this month. Having arrived at Juve on a free transfer in 2019 and with one year left on his contract, Rabiot would be a reasonably affordable option for a Premier League suitor.

That’s where Rabiot comes in with the Juventus star on their list of alternatives, with United bosses hoping to thrash out a deal. Marko Arnautovic is believed to be one target and have already seen a bid of £7.6million turned down for the Austrian. That would give Ten Hag another option going forward, but wouldn’t solve the biggest problem within his squad, which is in the centre of midfield. A first-half brace from Pascal Gross put the Seagulls in control and despite the introduction of Cristiano Ronaldo, United were able to complete a comeback.

Manchester United are trying to force through some late-window transfers, with Adrien Rabiot among their targets. Why do they want the Juventus midfielder?
His injury record is also commendable: 2018-19, when he was suspended for practically half the campaign, was the only one of the past nine seasons in which he played fewer than 21 league matches. Andrea Pirlo then took over despite coaching experience amounting to about a week in charge of the youth team, and Coppa success could not make up for finishing fourth as Inter Milan ran away with the Scudetto. Rabiot himself claimed some of the players "didn't understand" Pirlo's plans. He is also versatile, having played as part of a deep-lying pivot, on the left of a central trio and even as an emergency left-wing-back for France, most recently in Euro 2020. Personal terms must now be agreed with the player and his mother. He was suspended by the club; sporting director Antero Henrique described his "attitude and lack of professionalism" as "unacceptable". In July, eight months after his last PSG appearance, Rabiot signed for Juventus on a free transfer. PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi had seen a future PSG captain in the young midfielder, a homegrown figurehead to lead a team of glitzy star signings, but the Rabiots were becoming disruptive. By January 2019, he was being forced to train with the reserves while his contract ran down. In 2015, when the midfielder was dropped for the Coupe de France final after arriving late, she told Canal Supporters that she would be seeking a transfer for her son so he could have more playing time ahead of Euro 2016. When Didier Deschamps named Rabiot on the standby list for the 2018 World Cup, Rabiot told the coach he would not "be able to follow the training programme" and he watched from home as Les Bleus won the tournament. After that demoralising 2-1 home defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion, it seems attitudes have changed at United. Before the match had even finished, talk had surfaced of an offer for Bologna's Marko Arnautovic, Ten Hag having had to start without a striker due to Anthony Martial's injury and Cristiano Ronaldo's lack of fitness. Carlo Ancelotti fast-tracked him into the senior set-up, handing Rabiot his Ligue 1 debut as a 17-year-old against Bordeaux in August 2012.

"He can do a bit of everything and it'll be interesting to see how Erik ten Hag uses him. He plays with intensity as is a bit of a character and somebody who can break up play. "You look at it, and think, 'What's the plan here? Sky Sports pundit Roy Keane said United's midfielders lacked "decision-making" and "football intelligence" as he tore into McFred. "They are not good enough," Keane told Sky Sports. "They won't get Manchester United back competing at the top. Rabiot has played both of these roles with Juventus, PSG and France, but struggled to nail down his best position.

He left in controversial circumstances in 2019 after being frozen out by the club for failing to agree a new contract.

The incident led to speculation about his future and whether he’d be one and done in Turin, on his way again after a single season. Schemes like this, and his role in Allegri’s pragmatic style, do him little in the way of favours too, regardless of whether they end in a goal or not. A ringing endorsement arrived from Gigi Buffon no less, who returned to Juventus at the same time after spending a year at PSG — “Gigi in Paris” — with Rabiot. “He’s a fantastic mix,” the veteran goalkeeper said. Just the way he moved and cared for the ball left an impression on me.” They got relatively little bang for their buck from Rabiot and Ramsey — although the Welshman at least scored in what was effectively a title decider against Inter Milan in March 2020. But the last six months of his time at the club were spent on the margins after talks to extend his contract broke down in December 2018. Walter Sabatini wanted to sign Rabiot for Roma in 2014 and probably felt he’d done the hard part after reaching an agreement with PSG. “We had a lunchtime appointment,” he has recalled. “She has followed me all over, since I was little, to England and the south of France (where Adrien played for Pau and Toulouse). She has an important place,” he said. She wanted to talk to (Roma’s coach at the time Rudi) Garcia. I was furious and left. “We got talking and I said we already had a deal with the club (PSG). She was about to get up but added something no one translated for me. She was the one in front of (sporting director) Leonardo to negotiate my pro contract (at PSG).” “I wish the general public knew what it’s like along the way for footballers to reach the top level,” she said.
