Adrien Rabiot is unsure about his future as he tries to “drag” Juventus back into form following a poor start to the season.
Rabiot’s contract expires at the end of the season and there appears to be no sign of him signing a new one.
The France midfielder was linked with Manchester United during the last transfer window, but a deal reportedly fell through before the Red Devils signed Casemiro from Real Madrid.
Juve are eighth in Serie A after a 2-0 defeat to champions Milan at San Siro on Saturday and face a battle to qualify for the Champions League round of 16, with the pressure on head coach Massimiliano Allegri.
The Bianconeri got up and running in Group H by beating Maccabi Haifa last week to sit four points behind Paris Saint-Germain and Benfica, Rabiot scoring twice in a 3-1 victory.
Rabiot says his focus is on turning Juve’s fortunes around ahead of the return fixture against Maccabi at Sammy Ofer Stadium on Tuesday.
“I feel important for the team, but I think we all are,” he said. “Everyone has an important role. Right now I feel good, I’m trying to drag the team and do my best to help my team-mates.
“I don’t know about the future. There are other things to think about now. I’m focused on the pitch, getting out of this difficult moment. Then we’ll see what happens.”
The former PSG man says it is difficult to explain why the Turin giants have failed to live up to expectations so far this season.
He added: “We are always talking, even when we win. If I had known what was wrong it would have been easy.
“We have to solve the problems on the pitch, we have a good group. We work well in training and we must try to do what we do in training then in the match.”
