Everton boss Ancelotti eyeing Juventus midfielder Rabiot

Everton boss Carlo Ancelotti is eyeing Juventus midfielder Adrien Rabiot.

Rabiot was heavily linked with a move to Goodison Park last summer after an underwhelming first campaign in Turin.

Ancelotti reportedly made several moves in 2020 to link up with the 25-year-old France international - who broke through into the Paris Saint-Germain first-team under the Italian in 2012 - but was unsuccessful on each occasion.

France Football says the 61-year-old is set to reignite his interest in Rabiot, and has told the Toffees board to be prepared to spend more than £26million (€30m) to sign the player.

Rabiot was reportedly open to a move to the Premier League last year, with Manchester United also having been linked with him in the last 12 months.

The report comes just a day after Stadio Sport claimed Juventus were prepared to sever ties with Rabiot and are considering an offer received from Everton for a summer transfer.
