As per France Football (via Get French Football News), Everton manager Carlo Ancelotti remains interested in signing Juventus midfielder Adrien Rabiot.

The Toffees were eager to capture the £28.8m-valued France international (Transfermarkt) last year (Football Italia via L’Equipe), but he ended up staying in Italy. So far this campaign, he has made 28 appearances in all competitions for the Old Lady (Transfermarkt), but at the age of 25, he has perhaps still not hit the heights many expected him to.
Rabiot started out in his homeland with Paris Saint-Germain, and it was actually Ancelotti who gave him his first regular chances in the professional game – he played nine times under the Italian in the early days of his career. Clearly a fan, the Italian appears to be keen to take Rabiot to Merseyside, and has even told the Everton board that they should be willing to spend more than €3om (£26.2m) on the player.

“People saying his attitude is bad. If Carlo wants him, then surely he sees something in him! And let’s be honest, surely he’s better than Sigurdsson and Gomes!”
