Newcastle United transfer rumours as Adrien Rabiot links resurface after bright start with Juventus

On Monday, September 25, we take a look at the most recent Newcastle United transfer rumours.

Despite Juventus’ rebirth, Newcastle remain interested in Adrien Rabiot.

According to Calciomercato.it, Newcastle United are still interested in signing Juventus midfielder Adrien Rabiot. Following the Saudi-led acquisition of St. James’ Park, the French international has been linked with a move to Newcastle.

Manchester United are thought to be the frontrunners to sign Rabiot, who appeared to be on his way to Old Trafford last summer. Rabiot is still ‘desirable’ to Newcastle’s recruiting team, according to the source, with the Toon trailing the Red Devils in the pecking order.

Rabiot has had a fantastic season with Juventus under new manager Max Allegri, re-establishing himself as a key member in the Old Lady’s midfield. After a succession of strong performances, Juve is thought to be keen on providing Rabiot a new contract, but Premier League interest isn’t going away.

The former Manchester City and PSG youngster’s attitude has been questioned, but he has been a regular for both club and country throughout his career.

Dortmund ‘might take them for granted’

Former West Ham United striker believes Newcastle United may cause problems in the Champions League and believes their German opponents will take them for granted when the two sides meet next month.
