Languages are delighted on the OM side to evoke what can now be described as a Rabiot case.
What happened in the locker room of Olympique de Marseille, last Friday, following the defeat of the Marseille club on the lawn of Stade Rennais (1-0)? We may never really know the truth.
In the meantime, everyone goes from their version. The altercation occurred between Adrien Rabiot and Jonathan Rowe would be « something incredibleviolent, very aggressive and which has exceeded all limits ”, If we believe President Pablo Longoria. This Wednesday afternoon, Medhi Benatia spoke for a long time on RMC Sport to bring many clarifications.
The director of football of the Marseille club confirms the existence of a scene of physical violence. “I have never seen myself, someone who comes, paf, punching in my head … I have never seen that. Now, if for you it's normal, maybe I got the wrong place and that in fact we are at the madmen. But I believe it is not normal “judged the former central defender. The young Darryl Bakola would have even made a « malaise vagal » Following this fight.
Rabiot, a golden proposal?
Medhi Benatia also denies a “Blow mounted” intended to transfer Adrien Rabiot. “I don't know what to answer that. We put an offer on the table for more than two and a half months, which was … I don't even know if someone in OM has already won that salary. We made a contract offer that was just compared to the player level. Be careful, he deserved it. But an offer that was to really put it, again, in the top of our project, at the very top. So today, to say that we are going to lose Rabiot ten days from the end of the transfer window … to bring back who? Tell me, today on the market, I will bring back who, at least at the same level as Rabiot? I am not saying stronger, because there is not, but at least at the level? »»he questioned.
According to the Team, this case “Would have been minimized (on the side of OM) if Véronique Rabiot had not spoke”. “Since the start, there has been our desire to preserve the locker room. Even if what happened is serious, very serious, I think that going out in the press and telling what's going on in the locker room, it suggests that we have no codes ”regret Medhi Benatia.
The departure of Adrien Rabiot From the Marseille city now seems inevitable.
