Emblematic captain of PSG for several seasons, Marquinhos raised the Champions League last Saturday in a historic moment for the club. But while the euphoria is barely falling back, voices are rising to announce its potential departure this summer. After twelve years spent in the capital, some say that the club would no longer bet on him in the long term, and that the Brazilian himself would consider a final challenge elsewhere. However, his recent statements could change the situation.
A few days before the start of the club World Cup, Marquinhos posted an intact determination to represent PSG on the international scene. “It's a tournament that all clubs want to play. The new format is interesting, with all the major clubs combined. We can't wait “he said. A strong declaration, which says a lot about his short -term intentions: the captain obviously did not plan to make his suitcases right away. He even aims to add a new trophy to his already well stocked wardrobe.
Marquinhos denies an immediate departure from PSG
If it is sometimes criticized for its irregular performance, Marquinhos remains a central figure in the Parisian locker room. Its role as captain and its seniority make it a precious relay for supervision. And despite rumors of internal disagreements or drop in influence, his latest media outings show a player still invested and aligned with the club's ambitions.
Marquinhos calms rumors … for now
If Marquinhos clearly targets the World Cup, he did not close the door to a departure this summer. PSG has not yet officially communicated on its future, and some signals suggest that a renewal of the workforce could be started. The Brazilian, linked until 2028, could be part of a new cycle … or to be the symbolic end.
By choosing to remain silent on his long -term future, Marquinhos leaves doubt. One thing is certain: he will still wear the Parisian armband during the Club World Cup. Afterwards, the story remains to be written. But to date, the idea of a departure does not seem relevant for the one who has made Paris his house since 2013.
