PSG seems to have not limited itself solely to the departure of Neymar and Lionel Messi. The team also produced the departure of another element, for many key in the middle part of the club, as well as a great friend of the now Inter Miami player, Lionel Messi. This is Marco Verratti, who will continue his career in Qatar.

 

The 30-year-old Italian midfielder was one of the few who always showed himself at Messi's side every time the Rosario player had to live a difficult moment in Paris Saint-Germain. In fact, the one who emerged in Pescara also had a very good relationship with the club's Argentinians before their respective departures, and Leo was no exception when he landed at the Parc des Princes back in 2021.

This Sunday, Fabrizio Romano confirmed Verratti's departure to Al Arabi, a Qatari team that paid 45 million euros for him. Marco's choice surprised everyone and everyone because he gave the impression that he could still give more at a high level, but he decided to leave for this unknown league, motivated by the juicy salary that he will earn there.

 

How did Verratti do at PSG?

Marco Verratti played a total of 416 games with the Paris Saint Germain shirt, where he registered 11 goals and 54 assists. This figure places him as the second player with the most games in the club's history, only behind Jean-Marc Pilorget (436). At the club, Marco Verratti won 9 Ligue 1 and 9 French Super Cups.
