Tonight, Olympique de Marseille will start its campaign in the Champions League against Real Madrid. A competition that Adrien Rabiot and Jonathan Rowe will not play this season at AC Milan and Bologna. Regarding the Duke, he was one of the plans of the Olympian leaders for the season.

These are things that happen, but that hasn't changed my relationship with him. ” This Tuesday, it was Rowe's turn to get out of silence, he who had not expressed himself publicly since he left OM a few weeks ago. Presented to the press this Tuesday, he started by talking about his arrival in Italy.
“I am very happy to be here. For me, this is an important step in my career. I am ambitious, I can't wait to get involved. Everyone in the team is very strong, they welcomed me and helped me integrate myself (…) It is a very different football from English and French football. I was surprised and impressed by the atmosphere at Dall'ara. I saw so much passion. I want to create wonderful memories here with the team and the supporters. ” He will do so under the orders of Vincenzo Italiano. Another Italian coach for English after having known the Roberto method of Zerbi.
He drops his truths on Rabiot
“They have similar personalities. They are both Italians. They are both very demanding. It is essential to be always ready and to give everything. We get along well on the field and I want to learn the language soon (…) I want to help the team and do the best for the group. I will certainly have to work on the goal and the assists.

These things can happen in a wardrobe and stay there, but sometimes they stand out, we shake hands. It happens when everyone wants something good for the team. ” The debate is closed.
