Marseille's football team is experiencing early turbulence this season as two of its key players, France midfielder Adrien Rabiot and England Under-21 forward Jonathan Rowe, have been placed on the transfer list. They were reportedly involved in a heated altercation following a defeat to Rennes.
The club's decision to transfer the players was confirmed via a statement citing unacceptable behavior as the primary cause. This acts as a setback for coach Roberto De Zerbi, just a week before participating in the Champions League draw.
Marseille's majority owner, Frank McCourt, has made these moves in coordination with the technical staff and in adherence to the internal code of conduct. Both players had joined the club under different circumstances, with the transfer market window closing soon.
