The information took everyone short. Two years after leaving the capital, Marco Verratti could make a resounding return to the world of European football. Social networks ignite, fans of Paris Saint-Germain hold their breath: their little Italian genius, adored for more than a decade in the Paris jersey, would it be about to find Ligue 1? The excitement is total, especially since Verratti has never hidden its attachment to PSG and its supporters, who continue to dream of an unexpected comeback.
But the truth is quite different: the comeback of Marco Verratti could be played in Pescara, his hometown. According to the Italian press, the former international Azzurro is in advanced negotiations to buy 44 % of the Pescara club, where it all started for him. Forget the field, it is behind the scenes of football that Verratti now plans to get involved. A strong gesture, symbol of an unwavering attachment to his roots, even though he still pursues his player career in other colors.
Verratti invests in his heart club, the football planet in shock
This choice is not trivial. A true child of the club, Verratti has always claimed his love for Pescara. To come back as an owner is to offer a new dynamic to a historic club in search of Renaissance. No one will reproach him for this homecoming, as the midfielder left an impeccable image wherever he went: in Paris, in Qatar with Al Arabi, and obviously in Italy.
Verratti, a shattering return … but not at PSG!
After two years in the Gulf, Verratti now has financial means to offer this dream. His visit to Al Arabi allowed him to raise precious capital, which he now intends to invest to help Pescara find the elite. The initiative also testifies to his long -term vision and his desire to transmit his experience to future generations.
At 32, Verratti is therefore preparing a decisive turn in his career. If he returns to the light, it is first for his city, his club, and for the love of the game. A return which, if he materializes, could well serve as an example for other players at the end of the course, eager to give back to their roots all that football has offered them.
