Adrien Rabiot (French pronunciation: ​[adʁjɑ̃ ʁabjo]; born 3 April 1995) is a French footballer who plays for Paris Saint-Germain F.C. as a central midfielder.

He spent most of his career with Paris Saint-Germain FC, making his debut with the first team in 2012 and winning ten major honours, including four consecutive Ligue 1 titles and a treble in 2015–16.

Rabiot is a French youth international, having represented his nation up to under-21 level.

Club career

Rabiot was born in Saint-Maurice, Val-de-Marne, and played youth football for several teams, including two spells at US Créteil-Lusitanos and a few months at Manchester City.[2] On 2 July 2012, after excelling at the Camp des Loges, he signed his first professional contract agreeing to a three-year deal with Paris Saint-Germain FC.[3]

Rabiot was promoted to the senior team by manager Carlo Ancelotti ahead of the 2012–13 season.[4] In the club's pre-season he started in the penalty shootout defeat to FC Barcelona,[5] and, on 26 August, played his first game in Ligue 1, a 0–0 home draw against FC Girondins de Bordeaux.[6]

Rabiot made his UEFA Champions League debut on 6 November 2012, playing injury in a 4–0 group stage home win over GNK Dinamo Zagreb.[7] In January of the following year he was loaned to fellow league side Toulouse FC,[8] scoring his first professional goal on 9 March 2013 which was the game's only at Stade Brestois 29, from 25 yards.[9]

Returned to PSG, Rabiot contributed with 46 games and six goals[10][11] combined as the team won back-to-back domestic leagues from 2013 to 2015, but seemed to be on the verge of leaving the club as his mother Véronique acted as his main advisor during negotiations for a better contract.[12][13] He started the 2015–16 campaign by getting sent off for two yellow cards after only 29 minutes, in the opening match against Lille OSC (eventual away 1–0 win).[14]

Rabiot scored his first goal in European competition on 25 November 2015 to open a 5–0 Champions League group win at Malmö FF,[15] and repeated the feat the following 9 March in a 2–1 victory over Chelsea at Stamford Bridge, putting PSG into the quarter-finals 4–2 on aggregate.[16] Four days later, he scored in a 9–0 routing at bottom team Troyes AC that sealed the league title with eight games remaining.[17]

On 23 April 2016, Rabiot was sent off in the final of the Coupe de la Ligue, a 2–1 win over Lille OSC.[18]

International career

On 13 August 2013, aged just 18, Rabiot made his first appearance for the French under-21 team, starting in a 0–0 friendly draw with Germany in Freiburg.[19]
