Rabiot backed by French players’ union

October 11, 2025

THE French players’ union (UNFP) on Thursday backed footballer Adrien Rabiot for speaking out about his concerns at UEFA’s decision to allow AC Milan to play a league fixture in Australia.

AC Milan midfielder Rabiot branded the decision by European football’s governing body to allow a ‘home’ match against Como to be played in Perth on February 8 as “totally crazy”.

Milan’s San Siro stadium is out of commission on that date because it is hosting the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics on February 6.

Rabiot’s criticism incurred the wrath of the CEO of Serie A Luigi De Siervo, who on Wednesday told the player to count his money and be quiet about the decision.
