Throughout the summer, AC Milan have held an interest in bringing Adrien Rabiot to the club, and whilst there have been hurdles, they have seemingly stayed in the race. However, their chances are fading.
The midfield has been a topic of interest for some time now. During last season, Milan’s imbalance in the centre of the pitch was often taken advantage of, and there were regular debates about the composition of the midfield trio.
Therefore, it was pivotal for the Rossoneri to improve during the mercato, and after adding their main target, Youssouf Fofana, they have surely improved the issue slightly. Nevertheless, alongside Fofana, the Diavolo also dreamt of adding Adrien Rabiot.
After leaving Juventus at the end of his contract, the midfielder has been contacted by several teams but still remains clubless, something which Milan hoped would lead him to join the club, but it seems this will not be the case.
As Gazzetta dello Sport reports, the club made an offer to the French midfielder, which they felt was very generous, especially considering the numbers the player and his entourage requested. But, Rabiot preferred to decline it. It is believed he is waiting for Barcelona, or ‘who knows else if they ever arrive’, as Gazzetta states.
