His word was eagerly awaited after leaving Olympique de Marseille for AC Milan in the last hours of the transfer window this summer.
Indispensable to OM which he led to 2nd place synonymous with the Champions League during the 2024-2025 season, Adrien Rabiot became undesirable in the Marseille locker room following the fight with his teammate Jonathan Rowe in Rennes on the first day. An event that precipitated his departure. After being selected by Didier Deschamps for qualification matches at the World Cup against Ukraine (0-2) and Iceland (2-1), the former Parisian is about to return to Serie AB.
“Marseille A city and a unique club in France”
But before starting his new adventure in the Lombard club, Adrien Rabiot wanted to send a message to the Marseille supporters on his Instagram account. “Dear Marseille supporters, before starting my new adventure in Milan, I wanted to send you a message,” wrote the player. From the first day I arrived in Marignane, you have not attached any importance to my Parisian past, and immediately adopted me as Marseillais, until my departure. »»
The midfielder insisted on the atmosphere of the Vélodrome stadium which he deems exceptional: “I felt this fervor, this passion, this love of football which animates you and which makes Marseille a city and a unique club in France. I will never forget the atmosphere of the velodrome. The songs, the tifos and this “with arms”. The joys during celebrations and especially this indescribable feeling of scoring in this stadium … It will have been an immense pleasure to defend your colors, those of Olympique de Marseille. Thank you for any blue & white people. »»
