Joey Barton, the English midfielder at Olympique de Marseille, displayed his confrontational side during a training incident. After a duel with Kassim Abdallah, Barton told the defender to “shut up,” leading to a confrontation. Abdallah responded by asking Barton not to talk to him like that in front of everyone. Teammates André-Pierre Gignac and coach Elie Baup intervened to prevent the situation from escalating. This incident followed Barton’s early departure from a training session a few days earlier, citing an injury, and a recent strong tackle on Jordan Ayew.
