Verratti still absent in Toulouse

Having become undesirable at PSG, Marco Verratti is no longer really certain of joining Neymar at Al-Hilal, in Saudi Arabia …

Ten days before the end of the transfer window, Marco Verratti is still Parisian. If everything led to believe that the Italian midfielder was going to leave PSG this summer, his future remains very vague. In July, however, the number 6 of the Rouge et Bleu had apparently reached an agreement with the Saudi club Al-Hilal, where Neymar subsequently joined.

Many media were at that time convinced: everything was closed. So much so that Luis Enrique and his staff removed him from the group at the start of the season, like the Brazilian striker. Why hasn’t the “Little Owl” packed his bags yet? Mystery… But his situation and his profile are of interest to other clubs today.

The transalpine international (30 years old) could indeed explore a new exotic track, which would still lead him to the Middle East, but this time to Qatar. According to journalist Fabrizio Romano, the Al-Arabi outfit are about to make an official offer to Paris Saint-Germain and should then try to approach the player.

Marco Verratti, whose name has also been circulating in recent hours on the side of Manchester United and Bayern Munich, will he be sensitive to this new option? For the time being, one thing seems certain concerning him: he will not play again with the club of the capital before the end of the transfer market, which will close its doors on 1er september…
