Juventus could make summer swoop for Liverpool and Barcelona target Adrien Rabiot

Juventus are hoping to beat Barcelona to the signing of Liverpool target Adrien Rabiot before the end of the summer.

The French midfielder has entered the final year of his contract at Paris Saint-Germain and looks set to leave the club rather than sign an extension.

Liverpool have been extensively linked with Rabiot but they were unable to complete a deal before the close of the English window.

However, as talkSPORT told you this week, Liverpool are still keen to reach a pre-contract agreement for Rabiot to join them once the January window opens.

But they will face stiff competition from Juventus, who are now ready to make their move for the gifted 23-year-old.

Barcelona are also keen on signing Rabiot but they appear to have made Manchester United star Paul Pogba their No.1 target.

Now Juve hope that Barca’s pursuit of Pogba will allow them to steal a march in the race to land Rabiot.
