Lots of Everton fans want Carlo Ancelotti to sign Adrien Rabiot in the summer transfer window after a clip emerged of his rather impressive solo goal for Juventus to open the scoring away at AC Milan at the San Siro last night.
As per the footage shared by Max Carlyle on Twitter, the central midfielder dribbled through the Milan team before unleashing an effort into the top corner of the net from outside of the box.

Several members of the Goodison Park faithful took to Twitter to urge the Merseyside club to sign him and, based on some of his stats so far in the 2019/20 season, it is hard to argue against this.
The £22.95m-valued ace has averaged more dribbles per game in his domestic league campaign than Fabian Delph, Tom Davies and Andre Gomes have this season, exemplified by the build-up to his strike in the 4-2 defeat to Milan. He also has the highest pass success rate and overall average rating of those four players, according to Whoscored.

The 25-year old has previously been linked to the Toffees and, following his goal last night, these Everton supporters urged the Blues to sign the French international:

This 100% and one beside him who can get up the pitch and win the ball and be full of energy too. Then it looks a different team.

I’d take him all day. He’s someone we need

We do! As well as that we need a player who can sit back and win the ball like the job Gueye done for us last season in order to allow the other license to attack so freely.

Yep. When was the last time any of our midfielders did this?!

A bit of physicality as well, could do with an Allan type player alongside him too
