TURIN – Yesterday in Clairefontaine Adrien Rabiot he did not train with his national team teammates, dedicating himself to work in the gym and an autograph session with the fans. His presence on Wednesday in the friendly test against Luxembourg is not in question, in the path that will accompany France to Euro2024. A showcase that will allow the vice captain of Juventus to show off: not that he needs it, but the Juventus club would prefer to reach a conclusion to the matter renewal before the start of the demonstration in Germany. And is waiting for a response to biennial renewal proposal (with option for a further season) at the same figures received in the previous contract, while the player can still benefit from the tax benefits of the old growth decree. There is no agreement between the parties, at least until last night, but any time is a good time to give an answer.
Rabiot, Juve first of all: pressing Giuntoli for the renewal, then the transfer market
Juve, Rabiot takes time
The feeling is that Rabiot wants to wait a little longer to understand if something can be unlocked from the Premier League. And then there would always be some big names from Ligue 1, even if the player would prefer not to return to France, at least for now. What is indisputable is that Rabiot is very happy in Turin. And that Juventus has now sewn it on us like a tailored suit: he feels it and he is Danilo’s designated heir for the role of captain. The only real concrete offer for the former PSG whose terms are known for now is that of Juventus, who expect a response this week.
Thiago Motta, for his part, indicated Rabiot among the elements from which to start again for the new course and in fact the Juventus club is ready to make an economic sacrifice in contrast with the cut in wages in order to meet the needs of the new coach and also of the wishes of the midfielder. There is moderate optimism in the club about the chances of reaching an agreement on the renewal, if only because the Juventus proposal is competitive and the player has always expressed his appreciation for the club, team, fans, city and environment. But what if in the end Rabiot were to say no to Juventus’ extension offer?
