Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly identified Juventus midfielder Adrien Rabiot as a potential summer transfer target.

Despite making 157 appearances for Juve since his arrival in 2019, Rabiot has been frequently linked with an exit from the Serie A giants.

Manchester United were known to be interested ahead of 2022-23, only for the France international's wage demands leading to a move being scrapped.

Since then, Rabiot has been a key man in Massimiliano Allegri's starting lineup, beginning as many as 28 matches in all competitions since the middle of August.

However, the 27-year-old has under four months remaining on his contract at a time when Juventus are struggling to qualify for next season's Champions League.

Earlier this week, Rabiot indicated that it would take participation in European football's premier competition for him to consider extending his stay in Turin.

Speaking to DAZN, Rabiot said: "The Champions League is an important competition and we can reach it through Serie A or Europa League. Surely, it will be important for my future."

A number of English clubs are known to be monitoring the situation, including the likes of Man United, Manchester City, Liverpool and Premier League leaders Arsenal.

According to 90min, Spurs are also contemplating whether to move for the player.

The report says that Spurs have been asked to be kept informed of any developments regarding Rabiot's future.

While the North Londoners are not short of options in the centre of the pitch, Rodrigo Bentancur - arguably their key man in that area - is unlikely to return from a serious knee injury until towards the end of 2023.

Spurs currently sit in fourth position in the Premier League standings, but they are coming under pressure for the final Champions League spot from a number of teams.

On Wednesday night, Antonio Conte's side will attempt to overturn a 1-0 deficit against AC Milan to reach the quarter-finals of the competition. body check tags ::
