RMC: Rabiot ‘infuriated’ Zidane’s staff with suggestions that he’s ‘no longer a starter’

By: Ben Dixon Adrien Rabiot has been a long-standing starter for France, but the AC Milan midfielder’s position may be starting to slip. Rabiot has been one of the big players for France in recent years and after a solid World Cup campaign, it seemed Zinedine Zidane could build the midfield around him.

However, this has not been the case. He’s not looked to him as a starter in two of the four games in the international break and it seems that this will become the new normal.

However, it may not be a decision based purely on his technical aspects. Rabiot out of favour… Speaking on the ‘After Foot’ show, Jean-Louis Tourre of RMC Sport commented on Rabiot’s situation after suggestions last week that he was heading one way in the national team , as Calciomercato.com relayed.
