While the Serie A match between Como and AC Milan, relocated to Australia for economic reasons, sparked strong reactions, notably that of Adrien Rabiot. The midfielder denounced this decision, believing that traveling so many kilometers for an Italian Championship match was “totally crazy”. Which provoked the anger of the managing director of Serie A, Luigi De Siervo.
Present at a press conference this Sunday evening before France's match against Iceland, Mike Maignan returned to the controversy to support his teammate Rabiot: “I totally agree with Adrien Rabiot. We forget a lot of things, we mainly only think about the financial aspect, I don't understand why we have to play an Italian Championship match abroad. On top of that, it was a match that we had to play at home, so we lost a match at home at a time when our goals were high. ». The message has once again been sent.
