Present at a press conference this Friday, four days before France's friendly match against Germany, Adrien Rabiot took stock of his physical state.
In a little less than three months, Euro 2024 will begin, organized in Germany from June 14 to July 14. A competition for which the French team qualified easily and which it will finish preparing with two friendly matches scheduled for March 23 and 26 against Germany and Chile. Present at a press conference on Friday, Adrien Rabiot was questioned about his state of health, having been injured a few weeks ago before returning to the field this weekend during Juventus' draw against Genoa ( 0-0).
Faced with the press, the international community wanted to be reassuring and transparent. “ I'm doing well. I had a problem, I dislocated the big toe on my right foot three weeks ago. I played again for half an hour on Sunday. » Adrien Rabiot therefore believes he is ready to start the friendly match scheduled for Saturday against the Germans (9 p.m.). “ So I am fit to play. I discussed it with the coach. He can use me as he pleases. »
In a hurry to play the Euro
Good news for Didier Deschamps and for a French team which knows that it will have to do without Antoine Griezmann, injured in an ankle and who had to forfeit the two upcoming matches. The opportunity perhaps also for Adrien Rabiot to gain a little stripe in the hierarchy of the vice-captaincy. The Turinese was questioned on the subject.
“ I haven't spoken about it with the coach, we'll have to ask him the question directly, he certainly has the answer. » If the subject did not seem to fascinate him, Adrien Rabiot especially insisted on his desire to play Euro 2024. “I play football to play in the best competitions and to enjoy it to the fullest. A career doesn't last very long, we really missed it. »
