Adrian Rabiot

Thank GHod this agent-driven rubbish will cease for a few months. Watch it kick up again in the summer. BTW, how funny was it seeing Batishyui's agent whoring him to us? He was practically gagging to get it done, the only problem being we didn't want him!!!!
 
Doesnt say what the bonuses are, but the €10m sign on is a nice sweetner.

Given Ramsey has a €400k a week deal I would question why Rabiot would accept so much less, so pinch of salt on the report etc...
 
BBC went with the big bucks

Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey has signed a pre-contract agreement to join Juventus in the summer in a deal that will earn him over £400,000 a week.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/47203118


And this is the guardian a month after the article you linked

Ramsey, who joined Arsenal from Cardiff City in 2008, had held talks with Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain but it became clear Turin would be his destination with terms of around £300,000 a week being offered. That figure will make Ramsey the highest-paid British footballer.

Are you sure its fake news?

Not so much - Marcoti is normally close to the truth in Italy -https://tribuna.com/en/arsenal/news/3306547/ (cant link tweets at work) tweet was also on the 11th feb

"BBC reporting that Aaron Ramsey will earn £400k/week basic salary at Juventus. Been told it's actually around €7.5m net which works out to £250k/week.
As ever, can only go with what I'm told, but £250k/week sounds a hell of a lot more plausible. (If still rather high...)"

You chose your sources, cant see anything more recent.
 
So is it 140k, 250k, 300k or 400k?

You cite the Guardian as proof, yet the Guardian contradicts itself later. Now its Marcotti, and as a former TalkSport hack and current generic football journalist jobsworth, Im not sure Id put any real stock into his view.


Trying to find confirmation of what he was on at Arsenal, the only thing I can find is a site Ive never heard of reporting he was on £110k but wanted parity with Ozil on £350k
https://www.joe.co.uk/sport/aaron-ramsey-arsenal-195991

Mirror also say £110k, and go on to cite the Times in that he will get £300k at Juve
https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/aaron-ramsey-contract-details-staggering-13873259


The Express take a very different approach:
https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/1065379/Aaron-Ramsey-contract-Arsenal-Juventus
(citing Tuttosport)

According to the report, Ramsey will earn a base salary of £5.84m (€6.5m) a season.
That boils down to 112,000 a week - almost exactly what Ramsey is earning at Arsenal right now.

But Juve have installed some performance-related incentives that could see the player greatly increase his earnings.

Tuttosport claim that he will pick up an extra £900,000 (€1m) each season if he plays over 50 per cent of Juve’s games.

That can increase by a further €900,000 if he plays 70 per cent of their fixtures in a campaign.

Ramsey was looking to double his wages at Arsenal to around £220,000 a week - but the Gunners were not interested in the demands and withdrew their own offer before Christmas.


Clear as mud, basically.

Common sense says 140-250 would have been easily achievable without going to Italy. Just as it says a free transfer always gets a major pay packet.

400k always sounded like an incredible amount of money, but personally I would easily believe 300k+ given what we know he could earn domestically.

Is Bale no longer British? Thought he was on £600k?
 
Isn't Rabiot a more defensive-minded / box-to-box midfielder?

Just wondering if he's exit frees up a place in PSG's squad for, I dunno, a certain young, French, home-grown midfielder with a growing reputation???

I am not saying any are right calm down dear - Chose your source, its up to you - no one knows at the moment. I trust Marcotti as I like him in general, he has a focus on Italy and generally doesn't have an agenda. He is joining Juve not just any Italian team, so moving without a bumper pay increase is understandable.
 
Ade's folks are ok really said:

Rabiot has been exiled since he wouldn't sign a contract in the summer, him leaving has no impact on them - if they were not in for him before Rabiot left they wont be now and vice versa.
