Fans of Everton have taken to social media to air that they would not like to see the club sign Juventus’ Adrien Rabiot.
According to Corriere Torino (via Daily Mail), the Toffees are interested in bringing the French midfielder to Goodison Park, however, they will face competition from Manchester United.
Supporters were not keen on the supposed move, though (via @ToffeeTVEFC).

NO.
he has talent but, to me, lacks in effort and guts on the pitch. we need players who do everything for the team during 90 minutes and more.— ely????? (@lestin17) May 9, 2020

Would you be pleased if the Toffees acquired the services of Adrien Rabiot?No, we don't need himYes, he's good enough |
According to the report, Carlo Ancelotti is thought to be key to Everton’s chances of sealing a deal for Rabiot. However, after supporters were asked for their opinions on social media (via @ToffeeTVEFC), many continued airing their disapproval over signing the 25-year-old.
No thanks.
Clearly a step up in quality from what we have, but we’ll win nothing unless every player is prepared to run through brick walls for each other.
Let some other team pay his crazy salary.

What do we think?
As can be seen in these responses from Everton supporters, many of the Goodison Park faithful would not be keen on the signing of the French midfielder.
However, a 6.7/10 average rating in Serie A this season, which has made Rabiot the seventh-worst performer for Juventus (per WhoScored), would make the 25-year-old the joint-ninth-best performer for the Toffees in the Premier League.
So, while supporters are not keen on the possible signing of Rabiot, judging by his average rating, it would appear that the Frenchman could add something to Ancelotti’s squad.
