Adrien Rabiot is making headlines as he prepares to leave Olympique de Marseille for AC Milan. After a heated exchange with Jonathan Rowe during a match in Rennes, Rabiot found himself out of favor at Marseille.
The club is asking for a hefty 15 million euros to release the 30-year-old midfielder, but there’s a twist: Rabiot stands to pocket a whopping 30% of the transfer fee, meaning he could have made 4.5 million euros if the full asking price was met.
However, it seems the final transfer amount will be lower than expected. Recent reports from Fabrizio Romano indicate that an agreement has been reached between Marseille and Milan, with the transfer estimated at 10 million euros, including bonuses. This means Rabiot will still take home a cool 3 million euros from this deal—a significant payout for the talented player.
Rabiot Set to Face Rowe in First Match with Milan
In a surprising turn of events, Rabiot has also agreed to a long-term contract with AC Milan that will keep him at the club until June 2029. He is set to arrive in Milan on Monday for a medical examination before his official announcement. This marks the end of a dramatic chapter for Marseille, which is now parting ways with a key player who no longer fit into their plans.
As Rabiot embarks on this new adventure in Serie A, he will be facing off against Jonathan Rowe in his very first match, as Milan is scheduled to play against Bologna. The stage is set for Rabiot to make a splash in Italy while potentially reigniting old rivalries. It’s a new beginning for the former Juventus star, and fans are eager to see how he’ll perform in his new colors.
