A statement on the club website released on Tuesday afternoon read: “The story continues – after all there are still many roads to travel side by side and we are ready to keep running towards our goals together. Congratulations, Adrien!” UFFICIALE | Ancora insieme Adrien 🐴⚪️⚫️ — JuventusFC (@juventusfc) June 27, 2023 28-year-old Rabiot joined the Old Lady from Paris Saint-Germain in the summer of 2019 and has since gone on to lift three trophies with the club, including the 2019-20 Serie A title, the 2020 Supercoppa Italiana and the 2020-21 Coppa Italia. Since his arrival, no other Juventus player has registered more first-team appearances like Rabiot, who has turned out 177 times for the club, equalling veteran Juan Cuadrado’s record. Rabiot scored eight goals in 32 Serie A appearances from midfield last season, representing his best haul for the club.

Eventually, United went on to sign Casemiro from Real Madrid. With the Mason Mount deal on the rocks and Rabiot committing to another year in Serie A, Manchester United may now turn to Brighton and Hove Albion’s Moises Caicedo. The Ecuadorian was interested in leaving Roberto De Zerbi’s club in January but a move elsewhere failed to materialise. The 21-year-old has a price tag of £80m but it is understood that United would be open to reaching this figure due to his potential.
