During this summer’s transfer window, Rabiot’s representatives sought to secure a move to Real Madrid, but the club did not pursue this opportunity seriously. Rabiot remains without a team, though several clubs have shown interest. According to the Italian newspaper “Corriere dello Sport,” Al-Nassr is offering him a lucrative annual salary of 20 million euros net. This tempting offer might entice Rabiot to move, despite it meaning a shift to a less competitive league outside Europe.
Although such a move could impact his chances with the French national team, the example of Kante shows that playing in Saudi Arabia is feasible. Cristiano Ronaldo is reportedly advocating for Rabiot’s transfer, but he faces challenges due to Al-Nassr’s foreign player limits, despite ongoing efforts to negotiate an exception.
Meanwhile, Real Madrid is concentrating on reinforcing the team with young talent, aiming to continue the renewal process that has been ongoing for several seasons. In this effort, Florian Wirtz and Jamal Musiala are both major targets, but Wirtz appears to be the more likely candidate to join the Royal Club.
