Chelsea is processing their current situation of possibly signing Adrien Rabiot. The 29-year-old has spent about five years with the Italian giants Juventus. They are hoping that he stays in the club while putting up a price tag of 7.5 million euros on him, which would be inclusive of all the bonuses. It is certainly being reported that the soccer player has refused to sign further for Juventus and is looking for an exit from the club in this transfer window.
Reports from several journalists have come out claiming that the high-in-demand athlete was about to leave Juventus in the last summer itself, a year ago, but numerous reasons didn’t go his way, and he had to stay in Italy. The desire to leave Italy becomes even more genuine this summer, as the Frenchman is now a free agent too, and there is no pressure on him anymore to stay.
Chelsea’s concern lies in their midfield

With the news coming out about the possible departure of Enzo Fernandez from Chelsea, there are going to be a lot of worries for them in the midfield area. This is an area they are already struggling in. It is believed and rumored that events have come up with some sort of off-filed controversy that will force the Blues to release him and search for potential alternatives.
There’s not only this situation, but Conor Gallagher could also possibly route his way out of the club. Due to a lack of game time, he too has a decision to make, as clubs like Aston Villa, who have just secured their spot in the upcoming Champions League after finishing fourth in the Premier League, and Crystal Palace are showing keen interest in signing him.
Potential fit
Chelsea’s main target this summer has been to sign great midfielders, which could help the club regain their standards as they miss out on a Champions League spot this season. After finishing sixth in the English League last season, trailing by 28 points behind the champions Manchester City, it hopefully is the time for them to bounce back to their original form and restore their pride.
Chelsea lacks quality in the midfield area, which is not turning out well for them. The Premier League is filled up with star-studded midfielders. It is not that there is a lack of quality midfielders, but the ones present in the current squad aren’t able to produce the desired results. This often leads to a situation where a change is bound to take place.
Adrien Rabiot and his upcoming decision
The London Blues have a golden opportunity in their hands in the form of signing Rabiot without bearing any sort of transfer fee. With him being a free agent this season only demands a salary of five million euros, and to get such a player with this type of nominal finances can be considered a no-brainer deal for the EPL side.
The French midfielder has offers from Saudi Arabia too, but being just 29 years old and leaving European football should not be considered an option for the World Cup finalist. The mentality should be that there’s a lot more to be done and proved in Europe for him, and taking an exit is unlikely to happen. Also, with Chelsea entering a new phase of development, Rabiot would prove to be a great addition to the squad and bring a lot of quality on and off the ball.
