Manchester United target Adrien Rabiot closing in on signing new long-term PSG contract
Rabiot, 23, has just a year left on his deal and United and Barca have been linked with a move for France international
ADRIEN RABIOT is set to snub the chance of leaving Paris Saint-Germain by signing a new deal with the Ligue 1 champions, according to reports.
ESPN say that the French midfielder, 23, has been won over by new PSG boss Thomas Tuchel.
Rabiot has just one year left on his current deal at Parc des Princes and has been keeping his options open.
But Tuchel has showed his faith in Rabiot by making him captain for all three of their International Champions Cup matches.
The report claims that Rabiot and his mother Veronique, who is also his agent, are due to meet PSG officials next week for talks over his future.
And Rabiot is said to be poised for a pay rise, with any agreement scuppering any hope Manchester United and Barcelona had of signing the six-cap star.
He was only placed on France's stand-by list for the World Cup and withdrew from it to the fury of boss Didier Deschamps.
