Adrien Rabiot did not hesitate to shake up the codes by signing freely for OM, despite his past at PSG. A decision which quickly made waves in the capital, where many Parisian supporters cried betrayal. Invited on the Téléfoot set, the French international wanted to explain himself and respond to criticism, not failing to scratch his former club.
Freed from any contract since his departure from the Juventus in August, Adrien Rabiot took everyone wrong by joining Marseille Olympica movement which will remain as one of the biggest blows of this summer transfer window. Trained in PSGthe French midfielder took an unexpected step by signing with the historic rival of his training club. A decision which quickly inflamed the debates and provoked the anger of Parisian supporters. And their emotions risk being even more exacerbated after the explanations, without filter, provided by the player himself.
“When I was at PSG, they didn’t give me anything”
« I'm not going to lie to you, when I was at PSG, they didn't give me anything, they didn't give me any gifts. We haven't been behind me more than that while… Now, after 5 years at Juventus, to say 'we pampered him', yes, that… We have to stop… There was nothing. My last season, when I was in the closet, the supporters did not come to defend me to get me out of there. We must stop the hypocrisy. I made this decision. The only thing I don't understand is the lack of respect. We may not be happy, we may be disappointed, but it's the lack of respect and disrespect on the networks », blurted out Adrien Rabiot pour Téléfootbefore continuing.
“It’s especially this lack of respect that saddens me”
« That's something I don't accept. It touched me, it hurt me. It's a bit sad to see these things, it's still just football. There are other more important things. It is above all this lack of respect that saddens me, more for others than for myself. Afterwards, that I was able to disappoint certain people who were attached to me, who had the Rabiot/PSG image, I can understand it », added Adrien Rabiotnot kind to his former club.
