Reports linking Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Adrian Rabiot with a January move to Tottenham Hotspur certainly aren’t new and it’s no surprise to see his name linked with us again as the New Year and the transfer window nears.
Having apparently chased him since before recorded history began being recorded, I’ve lost track of how many times we’ve made supposedly ‘fresh enquiries’ or got a ‘deal almost done’ and all the other ridiculous claims sections of the media kick out. The last one, of course, was that PSG themselves were stalking us to garner interest because they wanted to sell, and the latest twist when it comes to the 23-year-old is that with a rough agreement in place, the Frenchman has rejected our advances, as he prefers a move to Barcelona.
Given the way this story continues spinning, I’m actually more convinced we don’t even know who he is and flat out don’t have an interest, but that’s me.
Enjoy sitting on the bench at Barca we move on

Seriously don't know why we were bothering if true. Seems like too much hassle & his 'entourage' even more so!

It’s fine. He’s talented but lazy. Can’t see how that would fit w/Poch.
