After more than a decade at PSG, Marco Verratti is in the hot seat like never before at PSG. Blame it on less and less flamboyant performances and an always questionable lifestyle.
Marco Verratti is about to enter the annals of Ligue 1 a little more. While PSG have come a little closer to the eleventh title in their history, the Italian midfielder will win his ninth personal crown in the League 1. Enough to make him more than ever the most successful player in the championship. On the other hand, it is less and less certain that the native of Pescara has the opportunity to win a tenth league title.
The Italian international may have extended his contract last year until 2026, his departure is more and more topical. Deemed untransferable until last summer, the European champion is now one of the players that Parisian leaders would like to see leave this summer. Just like Neymar and many second knives. The reason for this about-face? The performances were convincing from the transalpine player this season, repeated physical glitches and a lifestyle always questionable.
According to Le Parisien, Marco Verratti would have returned from the cut of the World Cup with an overweight of four kilos. What provoke the anger of the Parisian staff but also of several of his teammates, marked by this lack of professional conscience. What also explains Kylian Mbappé’s little sentence after the defeat conceded by PSG in the first leg of the knockout stages of the Champions League against Bayern Munich. The “eat well, sleep well” was indeed intended for him, more than for Neymar…
