Everton and Arsenal vie for Rabiot

The 24-year-old has been struggling for game time at Juventus this season and could be interested in reuniting with former boss Carlo Ancelotti at Goodison Park.

It was Ancelotti who gave Rabiot his break while he was manager at Paris Saint-Germain but since leaving France on a free transfer he has made just nine league starts in Turin.

According to reports in the Daily Star and Daily Express, Juve aren't especially keen on letting Rabiot go so soon after signing him, preferring to offload Emre Can instead but they suggest that they could be receptive if the player specifically asks to leave.

New Gunners boss Mikel Arteta is also thought to be on the look-out for midfield reinforcements but Rabiot's past relationship with Ancelotti could give Everton the edge if they are indeed interested.

He is said to be valued by the Serie A club at around £21m.
