Roberto De Zerbi Bans Two Marseille Players From Training After Dressing-Room Bust-Up
Rana Atef Marseille manager Roberto De Zerbi suspended Adrien Rabiot and Jonathan Rowe from training after a heated dressing-room clash that erupted following the club's Ligue 1 opener against Rennes, Sport Bible reported on Tuesday. Marseille fell 1-0 to Rennes on Friday night, conceding in stoppage time despite playing against ten men for over an hour. Tensions boiled over after the match, when Rabiot and Rowe exchanged insults and reportedly came to blows. According to La Provence, Rowe slapped Rabiot during the altercation, believing he had been singled out by the midfielder's comments. The ugly incident, which occurred around 11 p.m., forced teammates and staff to intervene. De Zerbi, known for his strict discipline, responded by banning both players from training. French outlet L'Equipe reports they were formally suspended on Monday and absent from Tuesday's session. Sources close to the club suggest that neither player has a future under De Zerbi, with Marseille now open to selling if suitable offers arrive. 🚨 𝗢𝗙𝗙𝗜𝗖𝗜𝗔𝗟: Marseille have announced they have placed both Adrien Rabiot and Jonathan Rowe on the transfer list because of their behaviour after the Rennes match. (Source: @OM_Officiel ) — Transfer News Live (@DeadlineDayLive) August 19, 2025 Rabiot's mother and agent, Veronique, was informed of the decision by club general secretary Benjamin Arnaud, but has yet to receive clarification from sporting director Medhi Benatia.

Rowe, who shone for England at the U21 Euros and joined Marseille from Norwich City on a loan-to-buy deal this summer, also faces an uncertain future. Reports from Foot Mercato and RMC indicate strong interest from Serie A clubs Bologna and Roma, while newly-promoted Sunderland are eyeing a sensational Premier League return for the 22-year-old winger.

Marseille Put Adrien Rabiot, Jonathan Rowe Up For Sale Following Altercation After Rennes Defeat
Frenchman Rabiot and English forward Rowe were involved in a heated exchange in the dressing room after their 0-1 loss to Rennes in their Ligue 1 opener. Ligue 1 side Marseille placed Adrien Rabiot and Jonathan Rowe on the transfer list on the back of a physical altercation following the team's 0-1 defeat at the hands of Rennes in the season opener. Frenchman Rabiot and English forward Rowe were involved in a heated exchange in the dressing room after their loss to Rennes, who edged out Marseille with a stoppage-time strike despite being down to ten men for over an hour. Reports suggest that Rowe felt targeted Rabiot by his comments on the player's commitment and went on to slap the Frenchman, before blows were exchanged. Head coach Roberto De Zerbi, his staff and Medhi Benatia stepped in to break up the squalour. Marseille described the players' behaviour as unacceptable in a brief club statement explaining the decision to put both of them up for sale. Rabiot and Rowe were informed of the decision on Monday. Initially, Marseille denied reports of a fight. However, a source close to the club confirmed a report from the French sports daily L'Equipe that said blows were exchanged between the two men. Rabiot, 30, joined Marseille last season after five years with Juventus and helped the club qualify for the Champions League. Rowe, 22, signed from Norwich last year and scored three times in 28 games in his first season in Ligue 1. This is not his first conflict with a club or country. He left Paris Saint-Germain in 2019 after being sidelined for six months over a contract issue. He also refused to join France's standby list for the 2018 World Cup, and coach Didier Deschamps did not select him for two years as a result. view comments Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Marseille duo Adrien Rabiot and Jonathan Rowe were placed on the club's transfer list Tuesday after a physical altercation following the 1-0 loss at Rennes in the Ligue 1 season opener. France midfielder Rabiot and England Under-21 forward Rowe were involved in a heated exchange in the team's dressing room after Friday's match, which Rennes won with a stoppage-time goal despite playing for an hour with 10 men.
