Arsenal, Chelsea target Rabiot set to depart PSG

Adrien Rabiot is set to leave Paris Saint-Germain this winter after being left out of their Champions League squad.

The highly-rated 19-year old midfielder is expected to leave the French champions in the winter after Laurent Blanc did not include him in their roster for Europe's premier club competition.

Arsenal were heavily linked with Rabiot during the summer transfer window while Chelsea have also been credited with an interest in the France U21 international who wants to leave Parc des Princes according to PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi.

"I love the kid - I think he's a great player and I want him to stay," he said.

"I have tried to get him to renew his contract, but without success. He wants to leave."
