Emery key as Arsenal keep tabs on Rabiot

Arsenal are maintaining a watching brief on Adrien Rabiot's PSG situation.

The Mirror says Unai Emery worked with Rabiot in the French capital for two years as PSG boss before leaving the club at the end of last season and moving to the Emirates as Arsene Wenger's successor.

Emery is a big fan of the 23-year-old France international and would a reunion at the Gunners, but knows that competition for his services is fierce.

Rabiot has found himself out in the cold at PSG after refusing to sign a new deal and has been speaking to Barcelona about signing for them when his contract runs out in a few months' time.

The Catalan giants have since signed Ajax midfielder Frenkie de Jong for £65million to join them for next season, which means they have cooled their interest in Rabiot.
