'RAI Sport': Rabiot agrees Barca deal

The playmaker will stay put for the rest of this season as he looks to wind down the time remaining on his contract, before making the switch in a bosman deal next summer.

Various sources claim that the France international does not enjoy the best relationship with PSG boss Thomas Tuchel, with the pair having already clashed on several occasions so far this season.

Talks over a new deal have yet to come to fruition, with Rabiot rejecting a string of offers and it seems that the decision on his part is now made.

Barca's interest in the classy midfielder is nothing new, with the Catalans having been tracking his progress for quite some time.

Rabiot enjoyed a fine campaign last year, playing 50 times in all competitions, though his performances weren't enough to secure him a place in France's World Cup squad.

However, according to 'RAI Sport', he could be about to team up with international team-mates Samuel Umtiti and Ousmane Dembele at the Camp Nou, having agreed terms on a contract with the LaLiga champions.

That deal is rumoured to be worth €13m net, plus bonuses, though the duration of the deal remains a mystery.

Whatsmore, given the lack of a fee involved, the 23-year-old is likely to pocket a considerable signing bonus for joining the Spanish giants, who hope to have all the requisite documents signed and sealed in February in order to make sure they get their man.
