Manchester United could sign Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Adrien Rabiot to replace Ander Herrera at Old Trafford, according to a report in England.

The Manchester Evening News is reporting that the Red Devils could look to sign the France international to fill Herrera’s void in the summer.

The same article states that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is looking to sign a midfielder, centre-half and striker to revamp his squad in the upcoming transfer window.

According to the same story, Rabiot would be willing to buy into Solskjaer’s philosophy at Manchester United despite a difficult season for the Frenchman at PSG.

Rabiot hasn’t played a minute of competitive football for the PSG team since the midfielder featured in a 3-0 win over Red Star Belgrade in their final Champions League group-stage fixture back in December.

The France midfielder fell out of favour under PSG boss Thomas Tuchel following the German’s appointment as Unai Emery’s replacement last summer.

The 24-year-old, who has experience in the Champions League, will be available on a free transfer when his contract at PSG expires this summer.

Manchester United finished in sixth place in the Premier League table this season to miss out on a spot in the Champions League for the fourth time in six campaigns.
