Actity week for Olympique de Marseille. On the men's side, the Phocaeans experienced turbulence from the first day of Ligue 1 in Roazhon Park, with an altercation between Adrien Rabiot and Jonathan Rowe after the defeat against Rennes (1-0), for the resumption of the championship.
The consequences were quick. Zerbi's Roberto trio – Medhi Benatia – Pablo Longoria has placed Rabiot on the transfers list, Rowe being already on departure. Since then, muscular exchanges between Marseille leaders and the Rabiot clan have continued to fuel the club's news.
Tensions were not limited to the male workforce. Another fight broke out last Wednesday during the friendly match between the Esporti Europa club in Barcelona, and the Women of OM. She was widely relayed on the social networks of the Spanish club.
A recruit already on departure?
Among women, the impact was immediate. Maria Thorisdottir, experienced Norwegian defender whose arrival at OM had been formalized on Monday, the day of departure for Spain, was obviously marked by the events that occurred during this match.

Meanwhile, the Women's OM will play a new friendly match this Saturday against FC Badalona Women (6 pm), before finding the Arkema First League on September 7 against Lyon, after five seasons spent in D2.
