Agent: 'Manchester City want to sign Adrien Rabiot'

Manchester City are keen to sign Juventus midfielder Adrien Rabiot during this summer's transfer window, according to Italian agent and intermediary Vincenzo Morabito.

The 25-year-old has been a key player for the Old Lady during the 2020-21 campaign, scoring once and providing two assists in 31 appearances in all competitions.

The Frenchman has previously been strongly linked with a move to the Premier League, with Arsenal, Manchester United and Everton all said to be admirers.

According to Morabito, Man City boss Pep Guardiola wants to bring the midfielder to the Etihad Stadium, but a move is unlikely during this summer's transfer window.

"He is a transfer target of Manchester City, but he is not going to leave Juventus," said the agent during an interview with Tuttosport.

Rabiot has made 68 appearances for Juve since arriving on a free transfer from Paris Saint-Germain.
