Unai Emery’s connection with the PSG squad as their ex-manager can pay the Gunners in signing the French midfielder, Adrien Rabiot. The player is also being linked with Liverpool and German giants Bayern Munich but it seems that Rabiot will find his way out and towards London.
The midfielder is set to expire his current contract at PSG this year and in no way willing to continue his term in a team where he is not given enough game time. Arsenal’s chances of signing the player in January went in vain but have become more concrete with every drop of sand.
A handful of skills in his bucket and undoubtedly talented, Rabiot had proved his worth playing under Emery and fill the missing piece to be left by Aaron Ramsey. Arsenal legend Robert Piers feels the same and supposes Emery’s presence to be an inevitable cause for Rabiot’s entry into Arsenal.
“Rabiot is a very good player and Arsenal should be trying their best to secure his signature before any other club does,” said Pires, speaking to bwin .
“Arsenal have the advantage of Emery having already worked with him at PSG, which should hopefully sway Rabiot to join Arsenal.”
“He would be worth a big fee on the transfer market so the fact he’s free makes it a no brainer.”
“If Emery can secure Rabiot then I think he’ll be able to fill the hole that will be left by Ramsey’s departure.”
With Aaron Ramsey leaving Arsenal this summer and Adrien Rabiot available for free makes this deal a no brainer as well as a perfect option for Emery to add steel in his midfield.
