1BSPORTS 1B Sports June 10th Last summer, Rabiot received an invitation from Manchester United again after leaving Juventus on his own, but the players finally surprised to join Marseille. Rabiot said he did not regret this decision in an interview with The Athletic.
“Two years ago, when my contract with Juventus was about to expire, I did have a chance to go to Manchester United, but I finally decided to renew my contract for one year. We had a good talk and had a written offer, but it didn’t end up. Last year, when I became a free agent, Manchester United contacted me again and we had a good conversation again. But the problem is really a bit troublesome, their recent situation… makes me a little hesitant, I’m not sure if United can continue to achieve great things because they are at a low point now.”“
Rabiot said he has always been more focused on the future than the past: “I have no regrets about my career, I have always been very satisfied with my choices.I always enjoy myself, in Paris, I won the championship, at Juventus, I not only won the championship, but also learned a lot. After coming to the Marseille, I had an excellent season, helped the team achieve my goals, and I qualified for the Champions League in my first season here. So, I have no regrets.”
Talking about Marseille teammate Greenwoo from Manchester United De, Rabiot said: “He is an incredible player. If he hadn’t encountered those problems, I think he would be as famous as Bellingham and become a big star because he is a very good player, he can score both left and right feet, have outstanding shooting skills, and can also surpass people. We are very lucky to have him. When he is fully focused, he can do big things.”
Rabbit has always been considered to be able to shine in the Premier League, and the players said that he has been paying attention to the league: “English football is very attractive, and everyone knows that it is the best league, and every weekend is a feast.” . There are many great teams here, the league is full of uncertainty, and the 18th team has the ability to beat the first or second team. At the beginning of the season, you really don’t know who will win the league title and who will make the European war. The competition is very fierce until the end, and new teams emerge every year, which makes the Premier League a real top league, so I have always been paying attention. ”
Talking about head coach Dezelby, who just came to Marseille from Brighton in the Premier League, Rabiot said: “I felt very involved as soon as I saw him. He is a good communication person, he will explain his ideas and work hard for everyoneThe player finds the right position. He devoted a lot of energy to tactics and stayed at the training center all day long. He is very obsessed with football and I appreciate that because to be successful you have to have that passion, determination, desire and ambition. ”
“We hit it off and communicated frequently. As the most experienced player, he asked me to lead the team and lead other players. Everyone knows Dezelby’s ability, he has achieved outstanding achievements in Brighton and has a high reputation in Italy, and he must have received a lot of invitations. He is very important to Marseille this season, and I think it is fortunate that the French League has such a coach. ”
Talking about Juventus’ career, Rabiot said: “This is an important step in my career. During that period, I became more mature and gradually developed the spirit that Juventus advocates: hard work, selflessness and sacrifice. These are things you need to learn and internalize into yourself. My time at Juventus has benefited a lot to me and it has allowed me to grow a lot. ”
“I have also experienced many great moments and won multiple championships. But more importantly, those who have worked with me and the teammates who played football together. Thinking of the players I first joined Juventus: Ronaldo, Buffon, Chiellini, Bonucci, they all have this spirit and pass it on to others. To me, they are role models to learn. ”
Talking about the relationship with French coach Deschamps, Rabiot said: “I joined the French team very young, only 21 years old, and my national team debuted in November 2016. Because of my lack of experience, the relationship between me and the coach is not the same as it is now. Players who have been in the national team longer and have more experience have different relationships with coaches. But as time went by, through time and competitions, this relationship gradually became established, and now we can be honest with each other and build true trust. For national team coaches, it is very important to have players who can trust and speak out. ”
In the interview, Rabiot also talked about the impact of his mother Veronica on him: “She has always supported me, always around me, always telling me: ‘You just have to focus on football and the things on the field, I will handle the rest. ’For a football player, there are many things that may distract you because you need to manage a lot of things. Sometimes you don’t know who to hand them over to deal with them, which can become a burden. ”
”My mother helped me with everything around me from the beginning, allowing me to concentrate on the court, which allowed me to achieve what I am now. She has also been very ambitious and hopes that I can get the best, and she always does what I ask, which is important, maybe things may not go so smoothly if it were someone else, especially outside the family. She is very professional and meticulous, just like me, we are very similar. ”
In March this year, Rabiot returned to Paris home court, and he and his mother were both verbally abused by home fans. And for a long time, French media have criticized Veronica for strictly managing Rabiot’s career. In response, the player said: “Of course I feel sad, but we have built a strong shell, and in such an environment, you must arm yourself. She also did a great job in this regard. She would not let anything affect her. She focused on her goals and did not care what people outside said. ”
”If she is sure that the choice is right and she is doing the right thing, she will do it and will not be intimidated by what is happening outside. You have to have an indestructible mindset, and she does, especially because of the things we experience together in our family, that have shaped us, and in this respect, she is unparalleled. ”
