Juventus Turin is preparing for the future without Adrien Rabiot with a track in Spain in their sights.
The Adrien Rabiot soap opera continues at Juventus in Turin. At the end of his contract next June, the French midfielder has still not extended his lease, leaving doubt about his future.
The Old Lady, second in Serie A, does not want to take any risks and has already identified a potential replacement: Mikel Merino. The Real Sociedad player, under contract until 2025, presents a profile that Juve really likes.
Juve awaits a response
According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Merino’s value is estimated at 50 million euros, but the Italian club hopes to sign him for a lower fee this summer. The reason ? If the Spaniard does not extend his contract with Real Sociedad, he will only have one year left on his contract, which could encourage the Basque club to sell him at a more affordable price.
Juventus will therefore wait to know Rabiot’s final decision before going on the offensive for Merino. If the Frenchman confirms his departure, the Bianconeri will accelerate the file of the former Newcastle player.
