Marco Verratti, the Italian midfielder for Paris Saint-Germain, has found himself facing increased competition in the team, particularly with the recent addition of Yohan Cabaye. Despite his recent struggles on the field, Verratti remains unbothered by the potential arrival of another midfielder, Paul Pogba, from Juventus this summer.
In an interview with Sky Sports, Verratti downplayed the discussions surrounding transfer rumors within the PSG locker room. “We don’t talk much about these rumors,” he explained. “However, if we were eliminated from the Champions League this season, it’s because we are missing something. We need to improve, and the arrival of Pogba would definitely be a positive step for us.”
While Pogba had been linked with a move to the French capital, PSG’s transfer focus seems to be shifting. Reports now suggest that the club has turned its attention to acquiring Miralem Pjanic from AS Roma, with the Bosnian midfielder becoming their primary target for strengthening the midfield.
As PSG looks to reinforce their squad, the arrival of Pjanic would signal a new direction for the club’s pursuit of success in both domestic and European competitions. The shift in focus from Pogba to Pjanic highlights the evolving priorities within the Parisian club as they seek to build a team capable of competing at the highest level.
