Arsenal are reportedly keen to complete a deal for Juventus midfielder Adrien Rabiot as soon as possible.
The France international will soon enter the final six months of his contract with Massimiliano Allegri's men and is expected to depart as a free agent at the end of the season.
Should the Bianconeri decide against offering Rabiot an extension, the 27-year-old will be able to negotiate a pre-contract agreement with foreign clubs from next month onwards.
