Enough to put Olympique de Marseille back on track in the title race according to Adrien Rabiot. The Marseille club midfielder says he is looking forward. Can the Marseille club dethrone PSG this season? This is our poll of the day!
L’Marseille Olympic has regained momentum since its heavy defeat conceded against the AJ Auxerre (3-1) on November 8. Indeed, the last international truce of the calendar year 2024 did good to the'About and to the men of Roberto Of Serve who remain on five victories and a draw in Ligue 1 and in French Cup.

Rabiot: “I am someone who looks ahead, I try to pull others with me”
After the success acquired by theABOUT facing the Havre Sunday evening (5-1), Adrien Rabiot ignited while passing through the mixed zone. For the latest summer recruit of theMarseille Olympicyou have to go and tickle the Paris Saint–Germain and this, from now on. “I'm someone who looks ahead, I try to pull others with me. (…) I came to this team, the objective is to win, to bring Olympique de Marseille as high as possible and when things go well like that, obviously I am fulfilled.”
Di Meco: “I don’t think OM can be champion”
98 world champion and former player of the'About, Christophe Dugarry did not at all share the optimism and ambition ofAdrien Rabiot. According to him, Olympique de Marseille is not at all equipped to watch the PSG in the eyes. “No OM player would start at Paris Saint-Germain, none. Rabiot? I'm not even sure now. Greenwood? If you want to be a little optimistic. OM are progressing and the coach seems to be satisfied. Is Marseille better? We say that after two convincing victories against ASSE. I thought Saint-Etienne was the worst team in the championship, in my opinion it's Le Havre. Yesterday was downright distressing. For the moment, we are very far from PSG's account. If OM's best to compete with Paris Saint-Germain are Murillo, Cornelius, Nadir, Rongier… We cannot learn that the gap with PSG will narrow, not with that, not for 'moment'.
European Champion 93 withABOUT, Eric Di Meco shares the opinion of Christophe Dugarry. “I don’t think OM can be champions. There is this double confrontation against PSG, you lost. Paris is full. OM fell apart against PSG and that's the reality. Since Auxerre, we see what OM is doing and there are only victories apart from a draw against Lille.”
L’AS Monaco follow himABOUT three points behind, the same goes for the LOSC which has five fewer units. THE PSG will he retain his title for the fourth time in a row or will he be challenged byMarseille Olympic or another club?
