Barcelona Transfer News: Marco Verratti to Force PSG Exit




Marco Verratti is reportedly ready to push through a move to Barcelona from Paris Saint-Germain after setting his heart on a switch to the Camp Nou.

According to Marca (h/t Uche Amako of the Daily Express), the Italian will rebel against any decision by PSG to block his transfer to La Liga.

The player has reportedly agreed his wages with Barca, prompting Verratti to boycott training with Les Parisiens, per Marca.

According to football writer David Amoyal, PSG have a track record of being stubborn when players wish to leave:


La Sexta (h/t Amako) recently quoted former PSG director of football Patrick Kluivert declaring the Ligue 1 team will not allow the talented midfielder to depart.

"I know the president very well, and I also know that Verratti wants to go to Barcelona, but PSG will not let him leave," he said. "He renewed his contract last year, and it will be very difficult [for Barca to sign him]."

The 24-year-old has developed into one of Europe's most coveted players, becoming a regular for his club.

The midfielder featured 35 times in Ligue 1 and the Champions League last season, scoring three goals and assisting seven times.

Real Madrid are reportedly considering the possibility of re-signing Achraf Hakimi just a year after selling him to Inter Milan. According to a report from Spanish publication  El Gol Digital , reigning La Liga champions Real Madrid are keen on bringing Achraf Hakimi back to the club from Serie A giants Inter Milan. Having come through the youth ranks at Real Madrid, Hakimi made his senior debut in October 2017 but managed only 17 appearances before he was sent out on a two-year loan spell at Borussia Dortmund in 2018. The right-back thrived in Germany, establishing himself as a key member for the Bundesliga outfit. After two very productive seasons during which he scored 12 goals and registered 17 assists in 73 games for Dortmund, Hakimi returned to Real Madrid last summer only to be sold to Serie A giants Inter Milan. The Moroccan international has thrived in Italy as well, producing a return of six goals and assists apiece in 36 games so far in 2020/21. Now, just a year after ha...

Neymar ‘90%’ to leave Barcelona this summer Neymar’s chances of leaving Barcelona in this summer’s transfer window are “90%”, Sky Sports reports. It is understood he has decided to leave the club after becoming increasingly frustrated at “playing second fiddle” to Lionel Messi. “Only a miracle will keep him, he really has made up his mind to leave,” a source tells Skite Sports. “At the age of 25, he thinks it’s his time to win the Ballon d’Or,” the source adds. “He believes he can be the best player in the world at another big club.” It is understood Paris Saint-Germain remain the only current club willing to meet the player’s €222m (£196m) release clause, with Chelsea and Manchester United unwilling to do so. It is also claimed Neymar is aware that a “growing number” of supporters do not want him to stay, with recent media polls in Globo Esporte and the Barcelona-based Sport newspaper revealing that the majority of those asked thin...
