Adrien Rabiot snubs Tottenham Hotspur; wants Liverpool move

Rabiot won't stay at PSG beyond this summer

Paris Saint-Germain's Adrien Rabiot is looking for a move away from the Ligue 1 giants and has refused to extend his contract beyond the summer. He has been wanted by top clubs like Barcelona and Tottenham Hotspur.

Now, according to Paris United, the Frenchman has decided to snub the offer from Spurs as he has his eyes set on a move to Anfield. The report claims that Adrien Rabiot has decided to stall on the Tottenham Hotspur offer as he prefers to join Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool over Mauricio Pochettino's side.

However, the Merseysiders are not in the market for a midfielder and have a pretty stocked midfield. Naby Keita and Fabinho arrived in the summer and with Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain coming close to a sensational return from a long-term injury lay-off, it does not seem likely that Liverpool will want Rabiot in the near future.
