Marco Verratti has opened up to L’Équipe about what transpired during his last moments at PSG.

The Italian midfielder, celebrated by the Parc des Princes crowd, was in tears during his farewell. It was a moment etched not only in the memories of the fans but also in Verratti’s heart. He shared, “I saw these eleven years flash before me. I knew it was the last time I would be on this pitch. I suspected it would be special: during other players’ farewells, I was the first to get emotional.”

“To be there with my family, my children, was powerful. Not everyone spends eleven years at the same club! With training sessions and matches, I’ve spent more time with the PSG guys than with my family.”


“PSG gave me the opportunity to experience something at the highest level that I might have done with my friends… That’s why I’ll always be grateful, and I’ll never hold any grudges against the club. In football, things evolve. I played there for eleven years, maybe they want to do something else. The most important thing is that we part on good terms.”
