Manchester United are aiming to sign Juventus’ star midfielder Adrien Rabiot at the end of the 2019-20 campaign.

The 25-year-old French international joined the Old Lady last summer after he run out of contract at Paris Saint-Germain. Despite his recent performance, the Italian club, who are on the verge of lifting ninth straight Serie A title, are ready to listen to offers for the midfielder.

According to Calciomercato, the Serie A side are willing to listen to offers for the French international.

And this has led Manchester United to consider weighing up a bid for Rabiot, with Juve said to be expecting a 'big' bid to come in.

The club already has a star studded midfield featuring Blaise Matuidi, Aaron Ramsey and Rodrigo Bentacur - and they have also secured the signing of Arthur Melo from Barcelona.

It has been claimed that the player could cost potential suitors upwards of £27.3million.

Apart from the Red Devils, other Premier League clubs Everton, Newcastle and Arsenal are also vying to bring Rabiot to the English top-flight.

Meanwhile, there has been speculation that Chelsea and Juventus could strike up a swap deal between Rabiot and Federico Bernardeschi for Marcos Alonso and Jorginho.

The ex-Manchester City academy star is on course to win his sixth league title in seven years having won the Ligue 1 championship five times at PSG, while Juve need three points from three games to become champions.
