Late on Sunday evening, JuveDipendenza published a shock claim that Manchester United are working to sign Adrien Rabiot from Juventus and Scott McTominay could move in the opposite direction.
Following Sunday’s 2-1 loss at Old Trafford to Brighton & Hove Albion, the need for Erik ten Hag to bring in a midfielder became even more obvious, and with attempts for Frenkie de Jong dragging on for months, it’s time to look at alternatives.
Rabiot had been linked earlier this summer, given the midfielder is thought to be looking for a new challenge away from Turin. Interestingly, on Monday morning, David Ornstein has also reported Manchester United are making an effort to sign him.
Back to JuveDipendenza, they say Manchester United have come forward with an offer for the Frenchman, and it’s believed his style could fit well with the Premier League.
Juventus’ desire to sign McTominay is surprisingly talked up, and it’s thought he could suit Serie A and find a place in the Juventus squad.
Whether this would be an exchange deal or not isn’t completely clear, although the idea of the two midfielders swapping clubs is being floated.
