OM have made a big move on the transfer market by securing the services of Adrien Rabiot. We will now have to put together a big team to make the French international want to stay.
Author of a double with the Blues against Italy during this international break, Adrien Rabiot has been full of confidence. Reboosted by his great performance in the French team, the former Juventus Turin midfielder was excellent during Olympique de Marseille's victory against Lens on Saturday afternoon. Getting better and better physically, the player trained at PSG will quickly establish himself as one of the team's leaders. Under contract with Marseille until June 2026, Adrien Rabiot is a priori part of a medium-term project within the Marseille club, for at least two years.
But in an interview with Téléfoot, Adrien Rabiot warned that he wanted a competitive team and strong players at his side to stay in Marseille and aim for big goals. “What if I see myself at OM for a long time? I don't know. Like I said, I rely a lot on instinct. It will depend on how it goes, what I personally feel about this season, if I see that there is a way to go higher, to go further. I am a competitor, I want players around me who are capable of taking this team very far” declared the 29-year-old Olympian midfielder before concluding.
Rabiot wants a big team to stay at OM
“All this has to be taken into account but in any case, every time I set foot on the pitch with OM this season, I would give 100% to go as far as possible” warned Adrien Rabiot, who did not speak the language in front of the TF1 cameras and who is very cash with Marseille. Certainly, he is fully committed to the OM project but for this to last over time, Pablo Longoria, Mehdi Benatia and Roberto De Zerbi will need to continue to build an ambitious team in the weeks and months to come. Because the objective is clearly to win the Champions League this season, and to do well there next year.
