Paul Mitchell, the new head of recruitment and analysis at White Hart Lane, is eyeing Rabiot as a key signing of the winter window, according to Le Parisien. Spurs manager Mauricio Pochettino is also a big admirer of the 19-year-old.
The London side will be without two midfielder is the coming weeks, Ryan Mason is injured while Nabil Bentaleb will be leaving for the Africa Cup of Nations. Brazilian midfielder Paulinho is also likely to return to his homeland.
Rabiot who signed a long term deal few months ago is eyeing a move for regular football. He has made only six appearances so far this season.
Spurs are confident to seal the deal in the next few days. But according to football columnist Matt Spiro, the deal will be only for six month. PSG will take their starlet back in the summer.
Telling that #PSG seemingly wont include option to buy. Rabiot may yet have future in Paris if Blanc (who's fed up with him) gets boot #THFC
