Former Juventus midfielder Adrien Rabiot is currently at a turning point in his career.

Free from any contract since his departure from the Turin club at the end of last season, the 29-year-old is still searching for his next destination, a situation that has led to much speculation about his future. In recent months, he has attracted the attention of several prestigious clubs in Europe, including AC Milan, Galatasaray, Liverpool, and Manchester United. These clubs, attracted by the experience and talent of the French international, have explored the possibility of adding him to their squad. However, the discussions have not come to fruition, mainly due to the player’s high financial demands.

An unexpected opening towards Al-Nassr

Faced with the impasse encountered in Europe, a new option has emerged for Adrien Rabiot: a transfer to Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia according to the local press. This club, which already houses superstar Cristiano Ronaldo, could offer the Frenchman an interesting financial opportunity, even if it is far from his initial preferences. Rabiot had until now expressed reluctance to the idea of ​​leaving the major European championships, preferring to evolve in a competitive environment.

This possible transition to Saudi Arabia could have significant repercussions on Adrien Rabiot’s international career. Not called up by Didier Deschamps for the first gathering of the French team of the season, an exile in a less exposed championship could further complicate his chances of returning to the national team. Deschamps has often favored players playing in top-tier leagues.

Although the transfer market is now closed for most major European leagues, the former Parisian midfielder’s contractual situation still allows him to sign with a club as a free agent. This flexibility gives him a certain advantage, but also additional pressure to make a choice that could determine the direction of the rest of his career.
