Man Utd table massive offer - but Rabiot waits for Liverpool

Liverpool's Champions League success could impact Manchester United's Bosman move for PSG midfielder Adrien Rabiot.

The Daily Mail says Rabiot has been offered a huge £170,000-a-week contract to join Manchester United - but would rather move to close rivals Liverpool.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer wants to add the France international as part of his rebuilding plans, and the club have tabled a deal worth around £9million a year with a £4.5m signing-on.

While Rabiot is tempted by the size of the deal, he is a huge admirer of Steven Gerrard and would prefer to join the newly-crowned Champions League winners.

He was also the subject of interest from Tottenham, Barcelona and Juventus, but excessive wage demands prevented a move for him in January.
