Juventus seem to have signed Rabiot on a free transfer.
They have also signed Luca Pellegrini, the young Roma left back in swap deal with Spinazzola going the other way.

The kings of free transfers
Ismaël Bennacer reportedly not interested in move to Fiorentina despite them agreeing a deal with Empoli; wants European football (Arsenal have first option & sell-on clause)
So Bennacer said no to Fiorentina, so we might not make money on him, yet.... He is killing it at the African Cup right now. Good little player.
Official: Kostas Manolas joins Napoli after playing for 5 years at Roma
Official: Godin has signed for Inter
esSports: World's champion Griezmann to Barca is now a matter of hours. It's expected that Barca will officially announce the signing in the next few hours.
[Official] Juventus announce they have sold Leonardo Spinazzola to Roma for €29.5m, while purchasing Luca Pellegrini for €22m
Everton are pushing hard to sign Barcelona’s Malcom. Barca are asking 36mil, Everton want a fee closer to 30mil

Seen the question raised as to how do we replace Rambo in midfield - Bennacer may not have his full skills as yet but the reports are he has technique and the tenacity and dynamic impact to go with it.
What are Juventus planning to do with all these midfielders?

For 36m I'd hope we'd be in for a piece of that action - would be a huge coup for Everton if they got this over the line & shows the financial power of the PL outside the top6.
Loan and 36m next season for Malcom would be ideal. Raul needs to have a chat with his mates.
Being reported that Ndombele to Spurs a done deal for €72m, great signing if true.
Expensive. Waiting to see what the Eriksen situation is. It’s a very different team with Ndombele AND Eriksen versus just Ndombele
Only guy they have right now who's good enough is Pjanic, and he's turning 30. Bentancour could be huge if he's given a chance to develop too. They're probably gonna chuck the rest of them though. They're either old (Khedira, Matuidi) or a bit useless (Can). Same as their centrebacks really. Before this summer they were getting dangerously close to the point where United were after Ferguson retired.

I guarantee you after 1 season of watching him you will say 72m is dirt cheap for him.
Regarding Rabiot (check the followup tweets too) (use deepl.com for those who dont speak frog)

😆 I can't wait for his mum to fuck everyone's whole shit up. Juve are like the bloke who starts out as the affair and then acts all surprised when their new found eternal love fucks away on first chance.
Why’s he still rolling with this woman? All his messed up stories start with his mommy
Makes me feel better about missing out. His charge sheet is more appropriate for a Ronaldinho level talent.
United have bid £70m for Harry Maguire 😆
The funniest bit is Leicester think that falls short.
I wouldn't want Maguire here full stop.
A lot of money or not, Maguire will improve them. He's much better than anything else they have at centrehalf. The same with Wan-Bissaka: Expensivre, yes, but hugely superior to Ashley Young etc.
[Twitter] Oh dear. Oh dear. Oh dear.
That's a kick in the teeth right there.

I'm not sure if Maguire is better than Lindelöf but they'll have a class defence with these signings for sure, probably comparable to City and Liverpool on the whole. Strong improvement from last year when they were even worse than us. I don't like them spending their money this way. I much preferred it when they wasted their funds on player that made no sense.
