Rabiot Faces Hostile PSG Fans Ahead of Classique Showdown

In a significant move, Adrien Rabiot has officially signed with Olympique de Marseille (OM) for the next two seasons. As the excitement builds for the first “Classique” of the season against Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) on October 27, fans are already expressing their feelings toward Rabiot. Although they may not be allowed at the Stade Vélodrome, PSG supporters have wasted no time in launching derogatory chants directed at the French international.

Rabiot faces hostility from PSG fans

As Rabiot prepares for his upcoming return to Parc des Princes next March, he is likely bracing for an unwelcoming reception. The 29-year-old midfielder will don the OM jersey until June 2026, and PSG fans are gearing up to make their sentiments clear. During a recent match where PSG faced Stade de Reims (ending in a 1-1 draw), the traveling fans were heard chanting insults aimed at Rabiot, including the phrase, “Rabiot c’est un enc***,” echoing throughout the Stade Auguste Delaune.

Rabiot requires time to adjust

Before making his debut with OM against Olympique Lyonnais this Sunday, Rabiot will need to bide his time. Head coach Roberto De Zerbi indicated in a press conference that the seasoned midfielder, who has earned 48 caps for the national team, will require “two or three weeks” to regain his form and fully integrate into the squad.
