Report – €40million midfielder made decision with ‘Arsenal in mind’

Arsenal have already strengthened their team by signing top players and it will be intriguing to see who Emery brings in next.

According to renowned RMC Sport, French international and PSG star Adrien Rabiot has told the Ligue 1 giants that he is not against leaving the club this summer.

The French source have mentioned that the midfielder made the decision some time back with the likes of Barcelona and ‘Arsenal in mind’ who have pursued to hire his services.

The 23-year-old Les Bleus star, who has made 6 appearances so far for the national side, was a regular starter for PSG in the last campaign under the management of current Arsenal boss Unai Emery.

Rabiot can effectively play in the DM and CM positions and last season, he made 50 appearances in all competitions scored 5 goals and provided 7 assists. Still, Deschamps did not select him in his World Cup squad and the player opted to quit the reserves believing that he deserved to go to Russia.

The €40million star (Sport) needs to move to a club where he can play regular first team football and in my opinion, he will most likely warm the bench at Barca.

Valverde utilizes a 4-3-3 formation at the Nou Camp and the likes of Busquets, Rakitic and record signing Coutinho are untouchable in the midfield. Therefore, a move to the Emirates for Rabiot makes much more sense.
