Chelsea have reportedly joined the race to sign Juventus midfielder Adrien Rabiot this summer.
According to reports from Calciomercato, the Blues are showing interest in the French midfielder. La Liga giants, Barcelona, are also keen to sign him.
Rabiot, who joined Juventus from Paris Saint-Germain in 2019 on a free transfer, has done well this season for the Old Lady, managing three goals in 41 appearances in all competitions.
Juventus are looking to offload some of their players to recoup funds, and they are considering his sale.
Rabiot’s mother and agent Veronique has reportedly made contact with Barcelona, but the Catalan giants are yet to decide on a possible move.
The report now claims that Chelsea have joined the race as well to sign the 26-year-old defensive midfielder, who has won six league titles in his career already.
Juventus are looking at a fee of around £17m for Rabiot, and they are waiting for the right offer.
