ARSENAL are preparing to make a £15million move for Paris Saint-Germain's Adrien Rabiot according to reports.

| Wenger could swoop for the unsettled youngster in January |
The 20-year-old has been booed by PSG fans after requesting a loan move away from the club.
Rabiot felt that should he lose his place to returning Italian international Marco Verratti, he should be given a loan move away from the club.
The comments angered manager Laurent Blanc, who claimed that the youngster was not showing the club 'respect' by using the media to force a move away.
And now the fans in Paris have turned on Rabiot, who has indeed lost his place in the side to Marco Verratti.
His unhappiness has put several of Europe's top clubs on alert including Arsenal, for whom Rabiot represents an opportunity to strengthen their injury-ravaged midfield.
But reports in France now suggest that PSG realise the value of their highly rated midfielder, and will not consider bids of under €20million (£14.7million).
However, with Inter Milan also interested in the player, it is possible a bidding war fuelled by Arsene Wenger's desperation to secure a first league title in 12 years could drive the price substantially higher.
