In an interview with Free Foot, Mathieu Valbuena once again shows that he does not have his tongue in his pocket. The former attacking midfielder for OM, OL and the French team explains why he would never have joined PSG after his time at Olympique de Marseille. Asked about Adrien Rabiot's adaptation to OM despite his past at PSG, he told Free: “I would never have wanted to go to Paris. Because, for me, Paris is really the rival. Whether sporting or extra-sporting, there is everything. »
Valbuena welcomes the choice of Rabiot
Valbuena, who marked the history of OM between 2006 and 2014, believes that his old rivalry with PSG goes beyond the sporting framework. On the other hand, he did not have the same resentment towards Olympique Lyonnais, where he played after Marseille: “When I was in Lyon – even if I know that there was a sporting rivalry (with OM ) – it wasn't a club we hated. » Despite his performances in Lyon, this transfer aroused the anger of Marseille supporters, illustrated by spectacular acts, such as the hanging of a mannequin in his likeness during an Olympico. However, Valbuena clarifies that his animosity is focused on PSG: “Paris, it has always been like that. We have always hated Paris Saint-Germain. » Finally, Valbuena praised Rabiot's adaptation to Marseille, describing his transfer as a success: “I think Adrien Rabiot had personality. But it’s a good sporting deal for Olympique de Marseille. » Today, at 40, Valbuena still plays in Greece, at Athens Kallithéa FC.
