Adrien Rabiot has signed a new one-year deal with Juventus, thereby eliminating Manchester United’s ambitions of signing him on a free transfer.
The Red Devils were interested in the France international last summer, but they couldn’t agree on personal terms, so he stayed at the Allianz Stadium.
Rabiot subsequently enjoyed his greatest season in a Bianconeri shirt to date, proving to be one of the club’s more consistent performances in a season marred by suspicions of financial mismanagement.
His contract was set to expire at the end of June, and Manchester United remained interested, with Juve kept in the dark until lately.
But Rabiot has now put pen to paper on a new one-year contract in Turin.
In a statement, Juventus said: “Adrien renews until 30 June 2024 and is ready to experience more emotions with the black and white shirt. 177 appearances, 17 goals scored and three trophies won (a Scudetto, an Italian Cup and an Italian Super Cup): this is the loot accumulated up to now, destined to be enriched again.
“The story is not finished, we still have roads to go side by side and we are ready to continue running together towards our goals. Congratulations, Adrien!“
