Manchester United fans despair at transfer strategy but call Adrien Rabiot failure 'blessing in disguise'

After being linked with Manchester United in recent days, Adrien Rabiot's proposed move to Manchester United has collapsed .

The French midfielder is currently contracted to Juventus, with the Italian club seemingly happy to let the 27-year-old leave the club. United agreed a £15million fee rising to £20m with Juventus but - as the MEN exclusively reported tonight - sources say he wanted an ‘obscene’ salary.

There appear to be other options, with Real Madrid's Casemiro reportedly emerging as a potential transfer target for Erik ten Hag's Old Trafford project.

The news that the 29-time French international appears to have gone down well, however, with fans reflecting on the failed move and what it could mean going forward.
