Adrien Rabiot

After leaving PSG, Rabiot brought proceedings against his former club concerning his employment relationship and deductions made. On 19 June 2025, the Paris Court of Appeal reclassified his contracts as permanent employment contracts and awarded him approximately 1,3 million euros in total, according to the sports press.

After Marseille's defeat at Rennes in August 2025, Rabiot and Jonathan Rowe were involved in a dressing-room altercation. OM announced that both would be placed on the transfer list because of behaviour considered unacceptable under the club's internal rules.

In January 2019, already in dispute with PSG over his contractual future, Rabiot did not participate in the Doha training camp. The club again used the ethics bonus mechanism to sanction him.

Following PSG's Champions League elimination by Manchester United, Rabiot was criticised for a nightclub outing and for liking an Instagram video of Patrice Evra mocking the club. PSG provisionally suspended him pending disciplinary proceedings.

Not selected among the 23 players for the 2018 World Cup, Rabiot refused to join the reserve list of players who could be called up in the event of a withdrawal. The decision sparked significant controversy in French football.

Before OM–PSG in October 2018, Rabiot arrived late for a team briefing. PSG sanctioned him, notably through a deduction from his ethics bonus, amid growing tensions with the club.

On the eve of the 2015 Coupe de France final, Rabiot arrived late at the meeting point at the Parc des Princes before the team bus departed. PSG omitted him from the final squad and announced a financial sanction.

Following disagreement over a contract extension and a transfer to AS Roma that ultimately fell through, Rabiot became involved in a prolonged standoff with PSG and was excluded from the professional squad before extending his contract until 2019 in autumn 2014.

In late December 2012, a few months after signing his first professional contract, Adrien Rabiot refused to attend PSG's winter training camp in Doha because the club would not cover travel costs for his mother and agent. Also believing he lacked playing time, he subsequently requested a loan and joined Toulouse for six months.
