Rabiot's return to Juventus remains unlikely, while his mother evokes “lots of proposals”.

Adrien Rabiot's career is going through an area of ​​turbulence. Recruited by Olympique de Marseille in September 2024, after having declined several offers from major European clubs, the French international had quickly established himself as an essential framework, both in the field as in the locker room. Pillar of OM qualification in the Champions League, he was to play the new team leader this season.

But the scenario quickly turned into a nightmare. During the first day of Ligue 1, concluded by a defeat in Rennes (1-0), the middle of 30 years completely lost its cool. Involved in a violent altercation with Jonathan Rowe, Rabiot was sidelined in training and then registered on the transfers list by its leaders.

Very quickly, the rumor of a return to Juventus gained momentum. Passed by Turin between 2019 and 2024, the Frenchman had known his best hours there and a comeback seemed to be the ideal solution to revive. But this option now seems compromised.

“I don't think he will come back”

In any case, this is the opinion of Gianni Balzarini. The Italian journalist clarified the situation on his YouTube channel: “Do not be deceived by the Rabiot rumor; I don't think it will come back. He was a troublemaker in Paris Saint-Germain and he became a again become in Marseille. The only time he was really on the right way was in Juve, and it is all in the honor of the Bianconeri. But I don't think it will come back. »»

An outcome is therefore closed for Rabiot, now undesirable at OM. While the end of the transfer window is approaching, the tricolor environment must absolutely find a fall point. One certainty: his future will not go through Marseille or Turin. But according to his mother and agent, Véronique Rabiot, he would already have “Lots of proposals”.
