This news has put the Premier League teams on alert including West Ham. The Hammers faces stiff competition for Rabiot's signature, with Manchester United, Arsenal, and several other top Premier League clubs expressing interest. However, West Ham's ability to offer a starting spot next season could be a decisive factor in their favour, especially considering clubs like Manchester United and Arsenal view Rabiot as a squad depth option alongside their new midfield signings.
Rabiot's potential addition to Hammers' squad would provide the team with a dynamic and experienced midfielder capable of influencing both ends of the pitch. His ability to perform in a box-to-box role, coupled with his defensive acumen and offensive contributions, aligns well with Lopetegui's tactical vision.
Moreover, Rabiot's experience in top-tier European competitions would be invaluable as West Ham navigates the challenges of the Premier League with star midfielder Edson Alvarez out with hamstring injury and creative playmaker Lucas Paqueta's situation uncertain on his future.

Rabiot's primary goal is to secure the most lucrative contract of his career at the elite level, and he is keen to join the team that offers the highest salary. West Ham would benefit greatly from adding him to their squad. Although clubs like Manchester United are also interested, Lopetegui's ambitious project at the London Stadium could entice Rabiot to take on a pivotal role for the Hammers.
