been linked with the kid for the past 12 months approximately. Also linked with Chelsea, Juventus, and others.
has 12 month left on his contract and wants to play first XI football rather than second fiddle to Cabaye, Verrati, Matuidi, and Thiago Motta.
Looks exceptional for a 19 year old: 6'2, technically gifted, can defend like Ramsey; could be a steal for us to get him.

His name is an anagram for 'Broad Inertia'. I'm just saying.
Similar to Zelalem at all?
I can't be bothered to think about young players anymore though. We need to win the league one of the next two seasons.
Eh, this guy have great potential. I remember reading an article about him and how PSG intend to mould him to form a perfect partnership with Veratti. No chance they will let him go
all "intentions" go out the door if they sign pogba. then it would switch to a perfect partnership between veratti and pogba. money is no object clubs like psg don't make long term plans like that anyway, they live in the now.
They can't just blatantly disregard the slap on the wrist they got from UEFA over FFP. In theory. 🙂
They can, but I think Uefa will punish them accordingly. Would have thought accepting their punishment this time around will do their case a lot of harm if they dispute FFP in the future.
If they had similar restrictions to Man City, which seems reasonable, then PSG too would be unable to raise the wages of their squad.
They could sell Cavani though, buy Pogba for the fee, and give Cavani's wages to Pogba... 🙂
Contract extension turned down:

Juve in the lead, but we are there as well.
If Vidal goes I see them taking him, otherwise I expect Wenger would be tempted by a hugely talented young french midfielder. Plus the premier league is a huge draw, as is Arsenal and Wenger's CV with youth development.

Bids are in @ £10m supposedly.
Lush hair
Maybe we can mention Cavani.
He also has this habit of passing the ball into the space behind the defender for the attacker to run onto. We have Giroud upfront.
if PSG value him at 8m, then what are we waiting for? do it.

sounds like he's developed as a midfield pivot. seems highly rated, wouldn't say no for the quoted price
Looks the part. i want him. Lets get this Motha home Wenga!

Adrien Rabiot? Raider, obtain!
6 ft 2 in? I like the sound of that!
Me to but only when you ignore the
"Another weakness in his game is the lack of willingness to enter a tackle. His lanky physique involuntary doesn’t let him enter a tackle."
Looks class. Superb on the ball and off the ball movement.
