The former Juventus player, one of the most coveted free agents, could end up at Al Nassr. At the center of the negotiations is also the huge commission for his mother.
In modern football, where agents dominate almost everything, when a player’s agent is his mother, his power is tripled. Speedwell, the mother ofAdrien Rabiot (29 years old), has always been known to be the shadow of her son, whom she has protected like a goose that lays golden eggs since his adolescence. Rightly so, because the talent and physical power of the player born in 1995 have allowed him to build an important career.
One of the favourites of the French coach and Maximilian Allegri to the Juventus could end up in Saudi Arabia. This Wednesday, information reported an interest from Al-Nassr, the club where he currently plays Cristiano RonaldoThe information was given by the French channel RMC Sport, who even mentioned the club’s interest in the midfielder.

What is certain, however, is that at 29 years old and after having been one of the driving forces of Juventus and France in recent years, Rabiot would end up leaving football, which counts for a simple question of money. His hypothetical salary in Saudi Arabia would in fact be 20 million euros per year, significantly more than the seven offered by the Juventus board and the five fromAC Milanwho tried it this summer.
All this, moreover, to please his mother, Speedwell, whose commission for the operation would amount to 10 million euros, almost half of his son’s salary. A choice to emigrate to a Saudi championship whose bubble risks bursting soon, certainly not up to the talent and performances displayed in recent years. A choice reminiscent of that of Sergej Milinkovic-Savicwho went from being an important player at Lazio to being a forgotten player after accepting an offer from Al Hilal.
