Marco Verratti’s Agent Rules Out Possibility of Pogba Swap Deal
The agent of Marco Verratti has denied claims that his player could become part of a swap deal for Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba.
Verratti’s club, Paris Saint-Germain, are interested in bringing the French international star Pogba back to his homeland, according to reports in Italy, while Juve are said to be interested in doing likewise for the Pescara-born midfielder.
This has sparked talk of a potential part-exchange deal involving the pair, though Verratti’s agent Donato di Campli has stressed his client will not be involved in any such transfer.
Di Campli, who hasn’t ruled out a move away from the French capital for the 22-year-old, told Tele Radio Stereo 92.7: “Everyone says good things about Marco. I have to emphasise that, with all the respect I have for Pogba, Marco is not a makeweight for anyone.
“If someone decides to knock on PSG’s door, they have to do so exclusively to talk about Verratti and strike a deal with the French club without thinking about including him in any sort of talks for another player.”
Verratti arrived at the Parc des Princes after helping Pescara to promotion two and a half years ago, and is contracted to the Ligue 1 champions until 2019.
