“I thought we’d already lived the worst with PSG.” Furious and uncompromising, Véronique Rabiot has lashed out at Marseille after her son Adrien was placed on the transfer list.
OM justified the decision by citing a locker-room fight with Jonathan Rowe, described as “unbelievably violent.” That wording infuriated the Rabiot family.
Speaking on RTL, Véronique hit back: “Not a single injury, no broken nose, no stitches… How can you call that ‘unbelievably violent’?” She reminded listeners that both De Zerbi and Benatia were present in the dressing room during the altercation, and insists the sanction is “disproportionate and unfair.”
“The one who was betrayed is Adrien”
She didn’t stop there. The midfielder’s mother and agent fired directly at the club’s hierarchy: “Longoria and Benatia have oversized egos. They’re not in the right place and they don’t know how to control their emotions.”
On De Zerbi’s claim of betrayal, Véronique countered: “The one who has been betrayed here is Adrien.”
Pushing even further, she compared the chaos to the PSG saga in 2019: “I thought we had lived the worst with Paris — I was wrong. It would be a disaster if he doesn’t play for a full season.”
For now, Marseille are demanding €15M to release Rabiot, with Juventus and AC Milan already circling.
