Liverpool is also linked with a free transfer of Adrien Rabiot. Currently, he is performing for the Juventus team, and he is 29 years old, being a midfielder.
The Italian giants want to keep him and have presented Rabiot with a new contract whose term will be for two years.
Liverpool has been interested in signing the French international for some time now.
For example, Manchester United was close to signing him last summer, other clubs from the English Premier League as well. However, a move for Rabiot to the Premier League never materialised due to his wage demands.
Real Madrid is another club that has also shown interest in Rabiot. However, his high wage demands may be an issue which Liverpool might consider before signing him up.
It has been seen that the Reds operate on a pronounced wage structure policy and this is highly unlikely to be breached for a 29-year-old player.
This factor remains valid and gets complicated by the ongoing Euro 2024 tournament, during which Rabiot plays for France.
Up to date, Liverpool has not embarked on any major signings on the transfer market this summer.
Nevertheless, planning and actions take place in the background to prepare to boost the squad for entering Arne Slot’s era.
However, whether these plans involve Rabiot is still an open question.
Over time, and certainly as summer unfolds, Slot’s vision of the team will come into better focus. Liverpool hopes to set the pace at the beginning of the season and this requires good transfers.

Their problems include Rabiot’s situation at Juventus and his ability to demand high wages. Juventus wants to retain him in the team’s fold and has presented a fresh deal to the player.
This match Liverpool must consider whether Rabiot will be a worthy addition given the club’s financial and strategic plans.
Others Premier League clubs may also be interested in the player due to his performances on the field to the effect that clubs like Arsenal, Tottenham, Manchester City and Liverpool may be interested in acquiring his services.
The fact that Manchester United was interested in him during the last summer transfer window suggests that he is a valuable player.
However, wage demands are a major issue that still poses as a barrier to achieving this objective.
Real Madrid’s interest is another factor that brings depth to this competition. Rabiot’s performance in the just concluded Euros will have an impact on his worth and marketability.
Therefore it means that Liverpool has to be very keen when choosing its strategies given the competitiveness of its environment.
The arrival of Slot at Liverpool can be described as a new era.
It has been mentioned that the club wishes to assist him with a good number of players in the team.
Any transfer decisions, including the possibilities of Rabiot signing for the team are important to consider for goal.
Liverpool realized that its strategy of transfers should also imply quality but definitely required fitting financial directions as well.
High wage demands, such as those of Rabiot, disrupt this equilibrium. The clubs wage structure policy is a matter of principle and therefore, it cannot be changed.
