Marquinhos- Roma to Paris St Germain
Marquinhos is regarded as one of the best young defenders in world football, having established himself at the heart of Roma’s defence at the tender age of 19. The defender has wowed everyone at the Italian club since his move from Corinthians last summer but Roma’s fans aren’t the only people to have taken notice of the talented Brazilian. Several top European clubs have been tracking Marquinhos, with Paris St Germain said to be front runners. Reports suggest that the defender has already agreed personal terms with the French club and all that needs to happen is for the two clubs to agree a fee. Marquinhos will be latest big money addition to the PSG squad and new manager Laurent Blanc will look to partner the 19 year old with another Brazilian, Thiago Silva. Silva is highly experienced when it comes to European football and Marquinhos could learn a lot from playing alongside his fellow countryman. Clubs like Barcelona and Manchester United will be disappointed to have missed out on one of the best young talents in world football at the moment.
