AC Milan Seal Deadline-Day €10 Million Move for Adrien Rabiot

Marseille transfer-listed the midfielder following a dressing-room altercation with teammate Jonathan Rowe.

Overview

  • Milan confirmed completion by depositing the contracts, with Lega Serie A listing the transfer, and multiple outlets reporting a fee of about €10 million including add-ons.
  • France coach Didier Deschamps said Rabiot would undergo his medical while on international duty after being allowed to arrive at camp later.
  • Rabiot was made available for sale after the incident with Rowe, who has since joined Bologna, setting up a possible meeting when Milan host Bologna on September 14.
  • The move followed Milan’s midfield reshuffle, with Yunus Musah’s transfer to Atalanta reported at around €25 million creating room for the deal.
  • Late negotiations featured Rabiot’s agent sounding out Napoli without success, while Manchester City’s Manuel Akanji rejected Milan to pursue Champions League football.
