PSG Captain Marquinhos Could Leave Amid Saudi Interest
Marquinhos, the 30-year-old Brazilian defender and captain of Paris Saint-Germain, may be nearing the end of his decade-long tenure with the French champions. Having joined PSG in 2013, Marquinhos has been a cornerstone of the club’s domestic success but has yet to lift the coveted UEFA Champions League trophy.
As PSG prepares for their Champions League semi-final clash against Arsenal, rumors are circulating about Marquinhos’ future. The Parisian club, once adamant about retaining their captain, now appears more receptive to the idea of his departure.
Saudi Arabian clubs, who expressed strong interest in Marquinhos last summer, have reportedly intensified their pursuit of the defender. This renewed and growing interest from the Gulf state has seemingly prompted a shift in PSG’s stance regarding their long-serving captain.
With PSG now open to considering offers, this Champions League campaign could potentially be Marquinhos’ last opportunity to secure European glory with the club that has been his home for over a decade.
