Verratti at PSG, a love story that has lasted since 2012

“Marco… We might call him Marc at some point.” He is very marked Parisian, very marked PSG. The short sentence dropped by Christophe Galtier on Wednesday evening to comment on Marco Verratti’s extension to Paris sums up the longevity of the small midfielder (30 years old) who has become, over the years, as much Parisian as Italian. With the formalization of the extension of his contract until 2026, announced before the kick-off of the match against Strasbourg, it is one more step which embellishes the love story of the Verratti-PSG couple, unites since 2012.
