JUVENTUS midfielder Adrien Rabiot is reportedly on the verge of joining Manchester United.
But some United fans are unhappy with the potential addition after an old picture of the Frenchman emerged on social media.
The snap shows a young Rabiot posing before a training session… in a MANCHESTER CITY kit.
Rabiot reportedly played for Man City’s academy when he was 13-years-old before signing his first professional deal with PSG a few years later.

“Fully ready to support city after seeing the Rabiot and Arnautovic links man.”
Another echoed the claims, adding: “If Man U sign Rabiot I might as well support City.”
While opposition fans joked about the fact that the Frenchman used to play for United’s biggest rivals: “Rabiot. Yes, Man City youth product.”
The Red Devils are claimed to have struck a £15million deal with Juventus for the midfielder.
