Four days ago, we relayed news from Italy that Juventus’ Adrien Rabiot remains attractive for Newcastle United.

The midfielder has impressed for the Serie A side this season and that has seen him attract interest from the Magpies.

That’s according to Calciomercato.it, who say the 28-year-old has received requests from the Premier League, including one from Newcastle.

The France international’s deal expires in 2024 and the Old Lady are negotiating the renewal. The report states they must step up their efforts because the Tyneside club are looking at the possibility of exploiting his current situation in January.

Eddie Howe’s side are keen on signing the former Paris Saint-Germain player and could ‘make a move’ for him in January. It’s claimed the Turin club are ‘shaking’ over the possibility of losing the player.

Rabiot continues to be an integral part of Massimiliano Allegri’s plans and the outlet adds his role on the pitch is secure despite the uncertainty around his long-term future.

Juve sporting director Cristiano Giuntoli is ready to offer an improved contract in order to tie the Frenchman to a new deal.

Newcastle are said to be seriously interested in Rabiot and will be hoping Giuntoli does not succeed in renewing the contract.
