Italian footballer Marco Verratti is about to say yes to Al Hilal and bid farewell to Psg after 11 seasons. The Abruzzese midfielder was convinced after a blitz in Paris by emissaries of the Saudi club. Although Verratti in Paris by now was almost a bit of a separatist, Psg President Al Khelaifi tried hard to keep the 30-year-old Pescara-raised player. No European club has been able to come close to the figures of Al Hilal, which has put insane sums on the table. A three-year contract is ready for the Italian national team's leader with a sky-high salary: 52 million euros per season. Psg will get 80 million euros for the price tag. If Mbappé has said no to the Arabs' proposal, the Arabs do not want to cash in on another rejection from a European big name and are proposing an offer that cannot be renounced. As a teammate, in addition to former Napoli player Koulibaly, at Al Hilal Verratti could also find Malcolm, another coup just announced by the club, paid 60 million euros to the Russians from Zenit.
