# Tottenham Hotspur: Italian outlet makes Adrien Rabiot claim

**According to a report from [Calciomercato.it](https://www.calciomercato.it/2022/04/21/calciomercato-juventus-allegri-rabiot-rinnovo-tottenham-paratici-conte/) (via [Sport Witness](https://sportwitness.co.uk/paratici-favourite-not-impossible-sell-summer-e15m-tottenham-satisfy-club/)), Tottenham Hotspur could look to sign Juventus midfielder Adrien Rabiot during the summer transfer window.**

### The lowdown: Illustrious career

Already a [six-time](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/adrien-rabiot/erfolge/spieler/182913) French Ligue 1 title winner with Paris Saint-Germain, Rabiot has added a Serie A crown and a UEFA Nations League success with France to a bulging trophy cabinet since making the switch to Italy.

Previously a member of the Manchester City youth setup, the 27-year-old has forged an impressive career and has amassed an impressive [364 club appearances](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/adrien-rabiot/leistungsdatenverein/spieler/182913) for Europe’s elite.

Having conquered the domestic scene in France and Italy, a fresh report has suggested England could be next on Rabiot’s list…

### The latest: Spurs in the mix

As per the Italian outlet, translated by [SW](https://sportwitness.co.uk/paratici-favourite-not-impossible-sell-summer-e15m-tottenham-satisfy-club/), Tottenham are preparing a move should the 26-cap France star be made available.

Out of contract in 2023 ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/adrien-rabiot/profil/spieler/182913)), the report states that ‘a possible future away from Juventus and a flashback of Fabio Paratici should not be ruled out’ as the summer window approaches.

It’s claimed that Spurs’ transfer supremo Paratici, who originally took the cultured midfielder hailed as a [‘complete player’](https://www.goal.com/en/news/i-have-rarely-seen-someone-so-physically-technically-strong/la9vsqkab74r1m6xanlr5mue4) by Italian legend Andrea Pirlo to Turin, could ‘attempt an offensive’ to sign Rabiot with €15million (£12.5million) enough to get the deal over the line.

### The verdict: Gift horse in the mouth

At the mooted asking price, passing up the opportunity to bring a player of Rabiot’s calibre to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium would be a major oversight.

This season, the versatile star has earned a 6.98 average match rating whilst making 1.9 tackles, winning 5.6 duels and completing 1.4 successful dribbles per game across 28 league outings ([Sofascore](https://www.sofascore.com/player/adrien-rabiot/250737)), showing the all-rounded and versatile skill-set which has found him a place in some of Europe’s top sides.

Antonie Conte currently has only Harry Winks, Oliver Skipp, Rodrigo Bentancur and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg available as frontline [central midfield options,](https://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/teams/men/players/) and would therefore surely jump at the chance to add the decorated Rabiot to the Lilywhites’ ranks, potentially as a replacement for Winks.
