Rabiot’s Journey: From PSG to OM, Insights from Fiorèse and Cana

In a notable trend among football players, Adrien Rabiot has recently made the transition from PSG to Marseille, following in the footsteps of former players Fabrice Fiorèse and Lorik Cana. While Rabiot’s journey has faced challenges, the experiences of Fiorèse and Cana provide insight into the emotional and professional dynamics of such a switch. The latter believes that with the right mindset, Rabiot will thrive in Marseille.

Fabrice Fiorèse’s Perspective on Rabiot’s Move

Reflecting on his own experience, Fiorèse, who played for both PSG and Marseille, shared, “I was hated at both clubs. I think no one can match that. However, I feel that Rabiot is appreciated by the Marseille fans. His adaptation will be swift.” Fiorèse’s stint at Marseille was brief, as he left on loan just a year after arriving. In contrast, Lorik Cana fully embraced his time in the city, serving as captain during his four-year tenure from 2005 to 2009.

The Key to Success in Marseille

Cana, a former Albanian international with 92 caps, expressed optimism about Rabiot’s potential success in Marseille, stating, “I believe Marseille is the greatest emblem of French football. A chapter at OM is essential for any professional player’s career. If approached with the right desire, mentality, and determination to sacrifice for this club, it will return tenfold.”
