Chelsea, Newcastle target Rabiot talks up Prem option

Juventus midfielder Adrien Rabiot admits a return to England is an attractive proposition.

Rabiot, after turning down Manchester United over the summer, is being linked with Chelsea and Manchester City ahead of the January market.

The former Manchester City trainee told ESPN from France's World Cup camp: "I am attracted to English football – the Premier League itself and its ultra-competitive nature. I enjoyed spending time in England even though I was young.

"I haven't talked about my future with the team yet, the beginning of the season was not easy for us, plus the World Cup.

"After the tournament, I will start thinking more specifically about the future."
