He is surely one of the best in the world in his position and he chose to join OM in the form of a free transfer, following the end of his contract with Juventus Turin.
The midfielder of the French team trained at PSG was in fact convinced by the speeches of Pablo Longoria and especially Mehdi Benatia to sign for Olympique de Marseille for two years.
A huge coup achieved by OM during the last transfer window! And what a match for Adrien Rabiot with the Blues against Italy, in the Nations League on the San Siro pitch on Sunday evening…
Author of a double, he was incredible alongside Manu Koné and… the former Marseille player Mattéo Guendouzi, also the author of a full match and who always gave satisfaction to Didier Deschamps during his last outings with the Blues.
If he had recently announced that he still carried OM in his heart and that a return to Marseille one day would not be ruled out for him, Mattéo Guendouzi has been shining in Serie A with Lazio Rome since last season and is now valued at 25 million on Transfermarkt.
We're not going to lie to ourselves, a Rabiot – Højbjerg – Guendouzi trio at OM, we would have dreamed of it… especially given the great progress experienced by the former Lorient and Arsenal midfielder since his arrival in the Italian championship.
