Renowned for her strong character, Véronique Rabiot is rare in the media. Adrien Rabiot’s mother and representative, however, spoke in an interview with La Gazzetta dello Sport. She does not hesitate to criticize the role of the French media, guilty, in her eyes, of neglecting the importance of women in the world of football.
“ I don’t think Messi’s father was ever criticized for taking care of his son. Nor that of Neymar in Brazil, said Véronique Rabiot. This is a problem with the French media. I have accompanied Adrien to training since the age of 6. I did it at PSG because at 17 he didn’t have a driving license and was authorized by the club“.
“Certain media and personalities do not understand that a woman, a mother, is like a father who manages his son’s career”
“ I have always been treated with respect by my interlocutors, starting with the president of PSG, Nasser Al Khelaifi and even Carlo Ancelotti, whom I met three times when Adrien was a minor, continued Véronique Rabiot. I cannot say the same about certain media and personalities who do not understand that a woman, a mother, is like a father who manages his son’s career. Today, fortunately, there are many more women in football, on television, as agents, as referees“, concluded the mother of the 2022 world vice-champion.
