Former Juventus, PSG Player Adrien Rabiot Could Debut for Olympique Marseille Sunday vs. Strasbourg
Adrien Rabiot has joined Olympique Marseille, a team that has truly reinforced itself to compete against Paris Saint-Germain in Ligue 1, and the midfielder could soon see his first minutes with his new squad.
The 29-year-old player, who arrived as a free agent, is set to be included in the squad list for the upcoming match against RC Strasbourg, a game you can watch on beIN SPORTS.
When does Olympique de Marseille play on beIN SPORTS?
The broadcast will start at 2:35 PM ET on beIN SPORTS in both Spanish and English.
Throughout the week, Rabiot participated in the team’s regular practice sessions, although his training was handled with caution to avoid any injuries from pushing too hard too soon.
It’s no secret that the French international missed the preseason and the start of the competition while looking for a team, so he needed to be integrated gradually, even after the October FIFA international break. However, the team’s recent injuries altered those plans.
According to RMC Sport, with Valentin Rongier (29) and Bamo Meïté (22) absent from training this week, and Leonardo Balerdi (25) suspended, Marseille may have to use Geoffrey Kondogbia (31) as a center-back and Ismaël Koné (22) in midfield, which could leave Rabiot as an option on the bench.
A highly anticipated debut for a team that remains unbeaten in the French domestic circuit, knowing that Adrien Rabiot's quality will boost Roberto De Zerbi's side in their bid to dethrone PSG.
