Adrien Rabiot finalises deal with Barcelona
Sky Italia and Paris United report that French midfielder Adrien Rabiot has reached an agreement with Barcelona over salary terms ahead of a free transfer move next summer.
The player’s agent and mother Véronique concluded an agreement with Barcelona Sporting Director Éric Abidal today, but had a ?10m salary understanding weeks ago. She used this week to attempt to bring that salary up to ?15m, but the Catalan club refused, granting a 5-year contract worth ?50m in total, plus a ?10m signing bonus.
That Catalan giants have now entered into negotiations with PSG about potentially signing Rabiot this month, with the French international currently refusing to participate in the club’s tour of Doha to take place in the middle of January.
