Even though the summer transfer window has officially ended, the Premier League clubs are still in the hunt to bolster their squad through free transfers. With superstars including Adrien Rabiot, Memphis Depay, and Anthony Martial available as free agents, the tussle for grabs among the English clubs would be intense.

Newcastle linked French International rejects an AC Milan move

In particular, for clubs like Newcastle United, who couldn't act much in the summer window, the race will be on for these players. Not to forget, even though Newcastle's Marc Guehi deal couldn't materialize, they have been linked with star midfielder Rabiot for a considerable time. While the Frenchman has left Juventus, currently a free agent, he becomes one of the best prospects for Newcastle.

Being the distinguished midfielder he is, as told by his trophy cabinet, having some of the most prestigious awards, Adrien Rabiot could fancy Newcastle's midfield. Already having won both Serie A and French Ligue 1, the Frenchman possesses the experience of shining in crunch moments, making him a nice fit for a Premier League challenge.

Moreover, according to recent reports from Gazzetta dello Sport, Adrien Rabiot, who has been linked with a move to AC Milan, has turned down the move. Now, with Serie A Giants and AC Milan out of the race for the midfielder, the Magpies club stands a significant chance to acquire him. In such a case, even though Howe's side hasn't put in an offer for Rabiot yet, the Tyneside club might do so in the near future.

Analyzing from a neutral perspective, Rabiot's potential deal with Newcastle sounds much more relevant than any other move. Being a UEFA Nations League winner with France and having won both Serie A and Ligue 1, Rabiot's Newcastle move might come up as an exciting challenge in the veteran midfielder's illustrious career.

From Newcastle's perspective, Rabiot's signing would not only strengthen their existing squad but also motivate the fans, who seem frustrated after the club's dull transfer window. In all, sportingly, financially, and emotionally, Adrien Rabiot's move to Newcastle makes much sense. And thus, although nothing stands concrete on the player's future, Newcastle might be his most favorable option.
