Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly winning the race to sign Arsenal target Adrien Rabiot in January.
The Juventus midfielder was close to joining Manchester United last summer, but a deal broke down over personal terms.
Rabiot has since had a superb campaign for the Bianconeri but he is still expected to leave the club in the New Year.
The Frenchman is set to enter the final six months of his contract in January, and Juventus prefer to sanction his departure.
The midfielder has rejected their proposal to renew and the Turin giants are now keen to recoup valuable transfer funds.
Arsenal have been linked with him in recent weeks, but Corriere dello Sport claim that Spurs have the upper hand in the race.
Spurs sporting director Fabio Paratici has strong links with Juventus. The club have already done business with the Italian side.
They signed Rodrigo Bentancur and Dejan Kulusevski from them last winter and Rabiot could be the next in line to join Spurs.
