An old interview with Liverpool target Adrien Rabiot has emerged revealing his belief that Fabinho would have been an ideal candidate to replace Thiago Motta at Paris Saint-Germain.
The Brazilian midfielder was on the books of Monaco this time last year, with the Parisiens reportedly seeking at the time a replacement for ageing midfielder Motta.
The 23-year-old is quoted by French media outlet BFC as saying that Fabinho would have been a suitable candidate to replace the Italian - because he possessed sufficient quality at the time, and was also young enough to help lead the team into the future.
