D'Ambrosio & Rabiot

The future of 26-year-old Danilo D'Ambrosio is up in the air, he is a popular figure with other clubs. Italian journalist Gianluca di Marzio tells us that both West Ham and Tottenham Hotspur have made enquiries together with Serie A sides Napoli, Roma and Fiorentina.

D'Ambrosio is a quick, energetic, offensive fullback, who is physically strong, and who also possesses stamina, and reliable technical ability, so says Wikipedia, not a website I normally go for player assessments.

I suspect the link to us in his recent article was prior to us securing the signing of Kieran Trippier, as with three right-backs we hardly need another.



Di Marzio also reveals that Juventus are going to try again to sign Adrien Rabiot, the wantaway PSG midfielder Spurs tried to sign in January and have again tried to sign this window. Juventus have also tried without success to buy him each year, at least now they have an idea of how much he may cost. PSG are asking for around £21 million (US$32.86m - AUS$44.81m - €29.67m).

PSG are trying to keep him sweet by playing him in their pre-season games to try and convince him he will be involved enough and he should stay.
