Vitiello: Rabiot’s Milan medical taking place in France – the contract awaiting him

Adrien Rabiot is one of the big moves for AC Milan to finalise today, and some more details have emerged about his signing. 

Massimiliano Allegri has specifically asked for a few players this summer, and Rabiot was one of them. Until the past few days, it seemed like a deal would not happen. However, an issue with Marseille opened a possibility, and Milan have pounced.

The Rossoneri have been in regular contact with the French club, and a deal was pretty much finalised late last night, with confirmation arriving this morning from Fabrizio Romano. However, it is not a done deal yet.

Rabiot: The next steps

Before his deal is completed, there is a need to conduct medical tests, whilst he also needs to officially sign his contract, rather than just agreeing to it verbally.

Now, as Antonio Vitiello reports, the medical is booked and will take place in France, given time is not there for the midfielder to travel, head to a medical and sign the documents. So, to save hassle, this is the route being taken.

Permitting everything with the tests goes well, then he will sign a three-year deal with the Diavolo, though there will be the option to serve a fourth year also included.
