Christophe Dugarry shocked for Adrien Rabiot

Sunday, Adrien Rabiot spoke about his choice to join OM, while sending a very clear message to PSG. At the microphone of RMC SportChristophe Dugarry defended the French midfielder, singled out for his ingratitude by Jérôme Rothen. “I am shocked that we can justify the threats, the blackmail… How can we justify that a club has the right to do that under the pretext that the kid comes from the training center? But have you ever asked yourself this question? If a young person from the Paris Saint-Germain training center is an OM supporter, what should they do? Should we burn it? What do we do? We put him in the public square, we put him on the Champs-Élysées and he walks around naked before we whip him and flog him?

He added: “but what is this nonsense? He does what he wants. Adrien Rabiot, do what you want. He doesn't have to justify himself, he doesn't have to explain. He shouldn't even enter into this debate. Adrien, you don't say anything and you don't give a damn… It's no use. People won't understand anyway. There is no point in trying to understand and explain (…) You have made your choice, you accept it, you play, you take the club you want, you take the money you have want, you make the contract you want. If you want to reach the end of your contract or if you want a 20-year contract… Adrien Rabiot does what he wants (…) Let him not explain to people who don't want to understand and who are unable to understand. I allow myself to tell him: “Stop answering and every time you are asked this question, don’t answer.” He doesn't have to answer, he doesn't have to justify himself. Period. He felt this and he wanted to explain a little why and how but I think it's a mistake. He should not explain the why and how. He makes his choices, it's his life and it's his career. He manages it the way he wants. Period (…) It’s always been like that, PSG doesn’t give any gifts. PSG gave him his salary because he deserved it.” Rabiot found support with Dugarry.
