This evening, AC Milan have announced the signing of Adrien Rabiot from Olympique Marseille, until June 2028.
All summer, there have been suggestions that Massimiliano Allegri, despite the additions, has wanted to complete the midfield with Adrien Rabiot. The Frenchman was a key part of his Juventus team, and the Italian wanted him to return to Serie A.
It seemed impossible, until a dressing room issue caused a breakthrough. Then, over the weekend, things took off, and a deal seemed more and more possible.

Rabiot to Milan: Done
Fabrizio Romano announced that a deal had been done ahead of deadline day, for a fee of €10 million. With reports later stating that the midfielder had completed his medical in France, with a representative of the Rossoneri present, ahead of him signing a three-year deal, with the option of an additional year.
Now the news has been confirmed by the Rossoneri, who stated the following on their website.
“AC Milan announces the acquisition of Adrien Rabiot from Olympique Marseille. The French midfielder has signed a contract with the Rossoneri until June 30, 2028.”
Considering the desire that Allegri has had for the midfielder, partnered by the injury to Ardon Jashari and Yunus Musah’s departure, the midfield looks to be in a solid place as the window shuts. Plus, it shows the Italian is being listened to in the mercato, which had been questioned before this move.
