# Rabiot emerges as strong Real Madrid target

Adrien Rabiot is a summer target for Real Madrid and an agreement may even have been reached, according to a report in [https://as.com/futbol/2019/03/28/primera/1553750343_128294.html?m1=cG9ydGFkYV9wb3J0YWRh&m2=QUNUVUFMSURBRA%3D%3D&m3=MQ%3D%3D&m4=bm9ybWFs](https://as.com/futbol/2019/03/28/primera/1553750343_128294.html?m1=cG9ydGFkYV9wb3J0YWRh&m2=QUNUVUFMSURBRA%3D%3D&m3=MQ%3D%3D&m4=bm9ybWFs)*[AS](https://as.com/futbol/2019/03/28/primera/1553750343_128294.html?m1=cG9ydGFkYV9wb3J0YWRh&m2=QUNUVUFMSURBRA%3D%3D&m3=MQ%3D%3D&m4=bm9ybWFs)*.

The Frenchman is set to leave Paris Saint-Germain in the summer, having been frozen out at the Ligue 1 club.

He hasn’t played since December and will not be signing a new deal at the club when his contract expires at the end of the season.

Liverpool emerged as one of the favourites to sign Rabiot this summer, with his all-round quality in midfield making him an obvious target.

The fact that he is available on a free transfer only made a move more appealing.

Talk of a switch to Anfield has cooled, however, and it is Madrid who have now emerged as the front-runners, with Barcelona previously linked.

The reigning European champions think they may have got their man, with Rabiot jumping at the chance to play under Zinedine Zidane.
