Juventus sign Rabiot on a free transfer

 

Juventus have signed Adrien Rabiot on a free transfer following his release from Ligue 1 champions Paris Saint-Germain.

 

Rabiot has put pen to paper on a long-term deal with Juventus after completing his medical with the Serie A outfit on Monday.

 

It was confirmed in December that Rabiot would leave PSG this summer after failing to agree terms on a new contract.

 

Rabiot was banished from the PSG first-team as a result and has not played competitively in nearly seven months.

 

Tottenham and Manchester United were linked with a move for the 24-year-old but Juventus have won the race for his signature.

Rabiot is the second high profile free transfer at Juventus this summer following Aaron Ramsey’s move from Arsenal.

 

Juventus are experts at signing elite players on Bosman transfers having done so with the likes of Andrea Pirlo, Dani Alves, Emre Can and Paul Pogba in recent history.

 

Rabiot was in great form for PSG at the start of last season before being exiled. The French midfielder garnered a WhoScored rating of 7.31 from 14 league appearances, in which he scored twice.
