Report: Spurs are among the clubs 'testing the waters' for 28-year-old midfielder

According to the print edition of Corriere dello Sport (as relayed by Sport Witness), several clubs across Europe, including Tottenham Hotspur, are now ‘testing the waters’ for Adrien Rabiot ahead of the summer.

Rabiot’s current deal at the Allianz Stadium runs out in June and the midfielder’s future has thus been the subject of much speculation over the last week.

It was reported a couple of weeks ago by HITC that Tottenham are one of the clubs following his situation closely ahead of the summer, with the outlet adding that Juve had not given up hopes of tying the player down to a new deal.

Tottenham face plenty of competition for Rabiot

Corriere have now said that Spurs are not the only team keeping themselves informed of Rabiot’s situation, with the many ‘first-tier foreign clubs’ also interested in him.

This is thought to include Bayern Munich, who are keeping close tabs on the midfielder but the outlet suggests that Premier League sides may have an advantage in the race.

This is because Rabiot has never desired to play in England, having spent a short spell at Manchester City’s academy before making a name for himself at Paris Saint-Germain.

There is every chance that Rabiot will sign a new deal at Juve before the summer. Even if he does not, I am not sure if Tottenham will be at the front of the queue for the 28-year-old as he does not strike one as a typical Postecoglou target, given his age and his personality.
