Spurs on the pursuit of Rabiot

According to the French outlet, Rabiot's mother, Veronique, has held meetings with a number of big European sides over the possibility of signing the midfielder. The PSG man is reportedly at odds with the club over contract talks, and Barcelona, Manchester United, Juventus and Manchester City are interested in capitalising.

The same source claims that Tottenham are another club who are keen on Rabiot, who has just one year left on his current deal in the French capital.

Mauricio Pochettino is expected to lose Mousa Dembele to the Chinese League during this transfer window, and Rabiot is a potential replacement, as the Spurs coach looks to reinforce his squad for a title challenge. The 23-year-old was employed in a defensive role by Unai Emery last season, but he is apparently keen to play as more of a box-to-box midfielder. 

Rabiot is expected to hold talks over his future with new PSG manager Thomas Tuchel when pre-season training begins later this week, and these discussions will likely be vital to deciding whether or not the Frenchman makes a move away from Paris.
