CorSport: Rabiot talks alive as Milan table hefty offer – what needs to happen

Adrien Rabiot continues to be linked with a move to AC Milan and although the transfer window has closed, he can still join as he’s currently a free agent. According to a report, a new offer was tabled yesterday but a sale is needed first. 

The midfield has been a big talking point among Milan fans this summer and while the signing of Youssouf Fofana helps, more would be welcomed. As such, which we were first to reveal yesterday, a new contract offer was put on the table for Rabiot.

This was also confirmed by today’s edition of Corriere dello Sport, as cited by MilanNews, stating that Milan first tabled the new offer (€5m per year plus bonuses) yesterday and then had additional talks in the evening. Since he’s a free agent, there is no imminent rush to get the deal over the line.

However, for squad rules reasons, Milan need to part ways with one player in order to sign Rabiot. Luka Jovic is the main suspect and as was reported earlier today, he still has suitors in leagues that have extended transfer window deadlines.

Therefore, while it’s far from certain at the moment, Rabiot’s move to Milan is indeed possible and the coming days will be decisive.
