The midfielder has been at Juventus for three seasons. He settled down at the club last season and he is now a vital players for Sarri. In addition, he is just 22, which gives him added value for some of the biggest clubs in the world.
'La Gazzetta dello Sport' states that both Barcelona and Man City have got him on their list and quite high up it. That means an offer from either of the two sides could arrive in January, when the window opens.
The Uruguiayan's market value is around 40 million euros. Barca may sell Rakitic to get the necessary capital to freshen up the midfielder. There are question marks over that area of the pitch.
The English club do not have important sales in mind, but they do have lots of economic power. They are capable of putting the required amount of money to buy him. One thing that could work against them is that the player signed a new contract at Juve recently.
