France defender Jules Kounde said it was ‘upsetting’ that Paris Saint-Germain fans unfurled an insulting banner aimed at Adrien Rabiot and his mother in the game against Marseille.
Adrien and Véronique Rabiot were the subject of an insulting message on a large banner clearly visible in the Auteuil end of the Parc des Princes in Sunday’s Ligue 1 match.
Rabiot’s late father was also insulted during the game. Kounde and Rabiot are set to play for France at Croatia on Thursday in the first leg of a Nations League quarterfinal. Paris-born Rabiot made more than 200 appearances for PSG from 2012-19 and the midfielder has been one of Marseille’s best players this season.
His decision to join Marseille after leaving Juventus was seen as a betrayal by PSG fans, and they targeted him throughout the match.
The president of the French Football Federation, Philippe Diallo, gave his support to Rabiot and condemned the vile banner and chanting, while Rabiot responded with a message on Instagram aimed at the perpetrators.
