Agent of Verratti; "If the French media continue to attack him, Marco will leave PSG"
The agent of Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Marco Verratti has launched a scathing attack on the French media. Speaking on Zona 11pm Mercato, to be aired on Rai Sport later this evening, Donato Di Campli explained that; “Verratti wants to win at PSG but if these attacks from the French media continue then Marco will evaluate his position and will probably leave Paris”.
It’s been a troubled few weeks for the 23-year-old Italian international; substituted in last week’s 0-0 draw against Marseille and photographed smoking by the wife of teammate Marquinhos, his future at the French champions has already been thrown into doubt. Despite claims by his current boss Unai Emery that all is well between the two, there does seem to have been a breakdown in relations between the two men.
Verratti was in the starting XI that took to the field in Lille earlier this evening; his future with the club however, remains uncertain with Juve, Inter and Chelsea all linked with a possible move for his services.
