Juventus midfielder Adrien Rabiot would reportedly favour a move to the Premier League this summer amid interest from Manchester United.
The 28-year-old is due to end his four-year spell in Turin and become a free agent when his contract expires at the end of this month.
Rabiot was strongly linked with a move to Man United last year, but a transfer ultimately failed to materialise due to wage demands set by the player's mother and agent Veronique Rabiot.
The Red Devils are understood to have reignited their interest in the 36-cap France international, with a recent report claiming that the 20-time English top-flight champions are lining up a contract offer for the midfielder.
According to Foot Mercato, Juventus are awaiting a response from Rabiot over whether he is willing to negotiate a new contract or leave the club for free when his current deal expires on June 30.
The report adds that Rabiot is inclined to take on a fresh challenge next season and his preferred destination, should he leave Juve, would be the Premier League.
Juventus are keen to hear from Rabiot as soon as possible as they draw up potential replacements for the Frenchman including Arsenal's Thomas Partey.
Since joining Juve from Paris Saint-Germain on a free transfer in 2019, Rabiot has contributed with 17 goals and 12 assists in 177 appearances for the Old Lady across all competitions.
The midfielder recorded 11 goals and six assists in 48 matches for Juve in the 2022-23 campaign, but Massimiliano Allegri's side had to settle for a seventh-placed finish in Serie A after the club were deducted 10 points for illicit transfer activity.
With Juve missing out on Champions League football, several star names have been linked with a summer exit including Rabiot, who is weighing up his options before making a final decision on his future.
Man United boss Erik ten Hag is in the market for midfield reinforcements, with the long-term futures of Fred, Scott McTominay and Donny van de Beek all believed to be uncertain, while Marcel Sabitzer will return to Bayern Munich now that his loan deal has expired.
The Red Devils could face competition for the signature of Rabiot, though, as Atletico Madrid and Newcastle United are both said to be contemplating a summer swoop for the Frenchman.
Atletico are allegedly hopeful that Antoine Griezmann can convince his compatriot Rabiot to swap the Italian top flight for La Liga, while Newcastle have also identified the midfielder as a possible target, although they are believed to be prioritising a move for AC Milan's Sandro Tonali.
It remains to be seen whether Man United's pursuit of Rabiot will waver should they complete a deal to sign Mason Mount from Chelsea, with one report claiming that both clubs are close to reaching an agreement over a £60m fee.
