Paris Saint-Germain star Adrien Rabiot has hired a new agent after sacking his mother in the wake of his failed move to Barcelona.
With just six months remaining on his deal at the Parc des Princes, the midfielder looked set to move to Spain in a deal worth €40million.
Inexplicably however, the deal failed to materialise after Rabiot’s entourage didn’t finalise negotiations.
According to Sport, Rabiot’s mother promised her client she would look at Barcelona’s offer to finalise the details of the move, but never did.
The 23-year-old has since replaced his mother with a new agent in preparation of his contract expiring at the end of the season.
After falling out with PSG boss Thomas Tuchel, Rabiot has been cast aside to play with the Under-23 side and will remain there for the remainder of the season.
However, Barca’s €86m signing of Frenkie De Jong from Ajax means it is unlikely they will seek to reinforce their midfield further – leaving the door open for other interested parties.
Tottenham Hotspur remain interested in the player, although reports suggest he would rather join Liverpool if he were to move to the Premier League.
The indecision has also seen Manchester United join the race for the starlet, having poached Alexis Sanchez and Fred from under Manchester City’s noses in previous transfer windows.
