Juventus have confirmed the departure of Adrian Rabiot with the midfielder now set to be one of the hottest properties on the free agent market this summer.
Rabiot’s contract at the Bianconeri officially expired at the end of June – enabling him to speak to other clubs – but there remained an element of uncertainty around his future plans due to his participation at Euro 2024 with France.
Juve announced this morning that the 29-year-old would be leaving Turin and gave thanks for his five years of service.
Thank you for everything and good luck for the future, Adrien! 🙏🐎

A statement read: “Adrien Rabiot and Juventus’ paths have parted. The French midfielder’s time in Turin has come to an end after five seasons.
“First joining in the summer of 2019, Adrien won a Scudetto, two Italian Cups and one Italian Super Cup. Beyond the trophies won together, though, he will be remembered as a player who always gave his all for the shirt, and one who carried himself with undeniable charisma.
“On the pitch, Adrien was a vital player to Juventus, particularly without the ball. His work rate could not be called into question, and he made huge improvements to his offensive game in recent seasons.
“Last season saw him reach 200 appearances in our shirt, becoming the fifth Frenchman in our history to do so. In all, Adrien made 212 appearances with us, leaving him third in the list of our all-time French appearance makers alongside Zinedine Zidane. In terms of Juventus appearances, the only Frenchmen with more are Michel Platini (224) and David Trezeguet (320).
“Thanks for everything, ‘Cavallo Pazzo’, and good luck for the future!”
Where next for the midfielder?

Milan and Napoli have been suggested as potential destinations for the former Paris Saint-Germain man, as have Premier League giants Liverpool and Manchester…
