Juventus are willing to include Adrien Rabiot in their offer for Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba.

The Sun says Pogba is currently out for three to four weeks after undergoing surgery on an ankle problem, making a January transfer look increasingly unlikely.

And Juventus are prepared to gamble on his successful recovery by offering midfielder Rabiot in a bid to tempt United to sell, according to The Sun .

French international Rabiot, 24, has started just five Serie A games and two Champions League matches since arriving at Juventus from PSG in the summer.

Contracted to Juventus until 2023, he can play as both a defensive midfielder and a playmaker, and was at Manchester City as a youngster before spending nine years at PSG.
