It's confirmed for Rabiot
Appeared very annoyed during the last performances of OM, Adrien Rabiot lives badly the current period. It is Medhi Benatia who says it.

With five setbacks in its last seven championship games, Olympique de Marseille saw a period to say the least complicated. Still in the race for a place in the Champions League next season, the Marseille club knows that it has almost the right to make mistakes. But the latest services are not reassuring and the tension is palpable. In addition to the declarations of Roberto de Zerbi, those of Adrien Rabiot made a lot of talk. Medhi Benatia returned to the subject.

In a long interview with Provencethe OM football director spoke of several points relating to the situation of the southern team. He notably talked about the team's executives, including an Adrien Rabiot who only targets one thing: C1. “Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg is one of the most professional in the locker room, a guy who only seeks to federate and take everyone with him, like Rabiot. Today, Adri dies from the inside. He has only one desire: go to C1. »»

Director of football at OM, Medhi Benatia spoke of the thirst for C1 of Adrien Rabiot.

And the manager to braid some additional laurels to his two executives. “These two are really two examples and at no time did they come to see me to dismiss players. People who come out of that do not want the good of OM. »» Medhi Benatia here refer to rumors claiming that Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg would have come to see him to ask that Mason Greenwood and Luis Henrique will no longer be aligned by Roberto de Zerbi.

The Champions League, a point is all

For his part, Adrien Rabiot had sounded the alarm on March 29 after the surprising defeat of his team on the lawn of Reims (3-1). “I have the impression of seeing guys who do not want to go to the Champions League, who do not want to fight to know the European Cup and play it. You have to question yourself when you display what you want to do. I came to OM to go to the Champions League, you have to show another face. »»

It was said by the main interested party and Medhi Benatia therefore confirmed it: Adrien Rabiot wants a place in the Champions League and nothing else. There are five games in Marseille to reach its goal, starting with that Saturday against Montpellier (9:05 p.m., 30th day of Ligue 1). Faced with the already practically relegated red lantern, the Phocaeans will not have the right to make mistakes. A new false away could have annoying consequences on the general atmosphere.
