'They have no right to exclude him' - PSG ordered to allow exiled Rabiot to train with the first team

The National Professional Footballers' Union (UNFP) of France has called on Paris Saint-Germain to end their exclusion of Adrien Rabiot, claiming that the club's treatment is illegal and borders on "harrassment".

Rabiot caused a stir at the end of 2018 when he declined to discuss an extension on his PSG contract, which expires in June.

In response the club banished him to train with the reserves, amid reports that the midfielder would soon be signing terms with Barcelona.

Coach Thomas Tuchel reiterated this week that Rabiot would not be considered for match duties, even though an injury to Marco Verratti leaves PSG short of cover in midfield.
