Rabiot: “I’m finding my legs little by little”

Adrien Rabiot is gaining momentum. Having to settle for individual physical preparation this summer after the end of his contract at Juventus, the midfielder of the France team is trying to catch up since he signed for OM.

Thanks to a lot of work from the player, but also from the medical staff, the native of Saint-Maurice is already capable of playing one match after another. At La Beaujoire, he once again played 90 minutes, as in the two previous matches, in Montpellier and against PSG.

“In this slightly higher position as a torchbearer, I feel better”

In the mixed zone, the OM n°25 spoke about his feelings and the team's progress in the weeks to come. “ Personally, it's okay, I'm finding my legs little by little, I'm happy to do another 90 minutes, we talk a lot with the coach about my positioning. In the midfield with Pierre-Emile Höjbjerg, we adapt with the third midfielder, and the coach also tries to find the best position for everyone. In this slightly higher position of torchbearer, I feel better. There are rehabilitations and we said it with the coach, we have quite a few players who come from foreign championships, young players who have to adapt. The coach has also experienced something else and did not necessarily expect that in Ligue 1 “, he explained.

And Rabiot concludes: “ We have a lot of things to work on, a lot of details to improve, but when we put it all together, we see that we are second. With all that remains to be done, this is a very good thing. »
