Adrien Rabiot has been without a club for over two months. After the end of his contract worth 7 million euros net per year with Juventus, the French midfielder still finds himself without a team. But there is no shortage of clubs interested in the ’95-born footballer, who however clash with the astronomical demands of his mother and agent.
In recent weeks, Rabiot has rejected several salary offers. The most recent is that of Galatasaray, willing to offer a higher figure than the last salary received by the player with the Bianconeri, but the Turkish destination was not considered suitable with the ambitions of the player. The former Juventus player also received an offer from Milan, ready to guarantee him a leading role in the team coached by Paulo Fonseca and a salary of around 5.5 million euros net per year for two seasons. This offer also did not win the heart of the player.
These are just two of the various proposals – or even just surveys – that have arrived on Adrien Rabiot’s table. And the reason for his position as a free agent is most likely linked to his exaggerated demands. According to calciomercato.com, It is rumoured that the request of mother Veronique (who looks after the Frenchman’s interests) is 10 million euros per year and a signing bonus of 15 million euros. Totally out of market figures that risk severely penalizing Rabiot. Not even the appeal launched by French coach Didier Deschamps has led to a change of direction.
At not even 30 years old, Adrien Rabiot’s career risks ending in a stalemate. If he doesn’t lower his demands, he could find himself without a contract for a long time.
