West Ham United are in talks to sign Paris St-Germain midfielder Adrien Rabiot according to reports from French newspaper La Parisien.
The midfielder and his parents have apparently held talks with Hammers officials about a potential move to Upton Park.
But the French giants are not keen to let the highly-rated young midfielder go even though Rabiot is keen for a move away from the club.
Rabiot missed a significant chunk of last season through injury but managed 21 Ligue 1 appearances for Laurent Blanc’s side.
The 20-year old scored for goals for PSG last season and is one of the most highly-rated young players across Europe.
Rivals Tottenham Hotspur have also been linked with the the 6ft 2in midfielder, who has previously spent time at Toulouse.
