Arsenal midfielder Guendouzi warned at Marseille: You'll insult wrong person; it'll end badly

The antics of Olympique Marseille midfielder Matteo Guendouzi is upsetting fellow pros in Ligue Une.

Guendouzi is on a season-long loan from Arsenal and regularly clashing with opposition players.

Pape Gueye and Boubacar Kamara have already pulled aside Guendouzi to urge him to rein in his outbursts during games.

And one unnamed opposition player told L'Equipe via Le 10 Sport: "He insults for free but he knows very well with whom he allows himself to behave like that.

"One day he will attack the wrong person and it will end very badly."

Guendouzi infamously clashed with teammate Gerson earlier this season, which led to teammates holding back the Brazilian after a goal was conceded in defeat to Lens.

Midfielder Guendouzi has so far played all of Marseille's opening ten games of the Ligue 1 season, scoring three times and producing two assists.

His form has led Guendouzi to making the last two France World Cup qualifying squads of coach Didier Deschamps.

With Arsenal, the 22 year-old Guendouzi has a contract to 2023.
