According to Tuttojuve, Spurs are keen on landing Juventus midfielder, Adrien Rabiot, with the Turin giants open to selling the former PSG star.

Rabiot made headlines when he moved to Juventus from PSG a few seasons back. He signed a huge contract with the Italian side, but since then, has struggled to ever really fulfil his potential.

And now, Tuttojuve claims that Juve could look to sell Rabiot for just £13m, with Spurs and Everton said to be very keen on the Frenchman.

Rabiot, 26, is a cultured central midfield player who can control games on his day and dictate the tempo. He’s won the French league six times, while he’s also picked up one Scudetto while in Italy. With 14 caps to his name for France, too, Rabiot is certainly an accomplished player at the top level.

Spurs are yet to make a decision on a new manager. However, their scouting network will be continuing to work and if Rabiot is available for so cheap, it’s little wonder the club are on red alert.

It’s not that it’s not worked out for Rabiot at Juventus it’s just that expectations were so high that he’s probably just fallen foul.

But rest assured, this is a player of the highest calibre on his day. Patrick Vieira has previously lauded him, calling him one of the best in the world in his position. High praise indeed from the Arsenal legend.

For £13m, Spurs can’t really go wrong here if they can sign Rabiot.
