Adrien Rabiot available for Reims visit despite France injury concerns | OneFootball

According to a report from La Provence, Adrien Rabiot (29) should be available for Olympique de Marseille’s visit to Stade de Reims on Saturday afternoon despite being forced to miss France’s victory over Croatia in the Nations League.

The France international started the first of the two-legged tie against the 2018 World Cup finalists, where France lost 2-0 in Split. Didier Deschamps then announced before the home leg that he would be resting Rabiot after the midfielder picked up a calf injury.

France were able to do without the former Paris Saint-Germain and Juventus midfielder as they managed to eliminate Croatia on penalties and progress to the semi-finals of the competition where they will take on reigning champions Spain.

La Provence writes that the injury should not impact Rabiot’s club commitments and Roberto De Zerbi will likely be able to count on his midfielder as Les Phocéens look to bounce back from a poor run of form that has seen them lose three of their last four games.
