The soap opera that set fire to Marseille ended on the last day of the transfer window on September 1. After fighting with Jonathan Rowe in the locker room of Roazhon Park -where OM bowed 1-0 against Rennes during the 1st day of Ligue 1 -Adrien Rabiot was placed on the list of transfers by its leaders.
If Roberto de Zerbi seemed to want to make a back machine by stretching his hand at his 30 -year -old French international, the latter decided not to grasp it. The “duke” did not wish to make public apology, as the Italian technician suggested. He preferred to leave the Marseille city.
In the last hours of the transfer window, Adrien Rabiot then undertook for the next three seasons in favor of AC Milan. In Lombardy, the former Parisian will not play the Champions League, but on the other hand finds his former coach at Juventus, Massimiliano Allegri, as well as ex-co-teamers on the side of Paris, like Mike Maignan, Christopher Nkunku or Yacine Adli.
Véronique and Adrien Rabiot made big sacrifices to leave
The amount of its transfer to the Rossoneri is estimated at 10 million euros. As stipulated by his contract signed with Olympique de Marseille, Rabiot had to recover 30% of the sum of the transfer. But to facilitate his arrival on the side of San Siro, the Frenchman has given up 15%. And that's not all.
Proof of Adrien Rabiot's desire to leave Marseille quickly, his mother and agent, Véronique, did not receive a penny of commission, says Transalpin journalist Daniele Longo. The will was clear in the clan of the vice-world champion 2022: make the sacrifices necessary to bounce back as quickly as possible.
