Despite an extension at Paris Saint-Germain in May 2023 until 2028, Marquinhos has been questioned several times in recent months, and there have been rumors of a departure for the 30-year-old central defender and captain. This Sunday, L’Equipe once again mentions the interest of Saudi Arabia.
“New attractive offers will be forthcoming in a few months’ time.
“Courted last summer by Saudi Arabia, the longest-serving player in the current squad (he is playing his twelfth season with PSG) chose to remain in the capital, where he is now under contract until 2028.
The kingdom has not given up on bringing him in, and maintains contact with his brother, who is also his agent. New and tempting offers are sure to arrive in the next few months. It remains to be seen what the PSG captain will decide at that point.“
An interest is quite possible, even if you can never be sure with rumors. But we’re still a long way from a transfer, since we need an agreement between the player and the club.
There’s nothing to say that Marquinhos is thinking of leaving PSG next summer, and even less to say that it would be for this destination. Just as the club will not necessarily be an easy sell, far from it. A solid replacement would also be needed. While an offer is not even certain, we’re still a long way from a departure. Without it being totally impossible.
