Barcelona will make a final approach to sign Brazilian defender Marquinhos from Paris Saint-Germain.
Although they’re in talks for Lyon’s Samuel Umtiti, PSG central defender Marquinhos still interests the coaching staff of Barcelona. A member of the Brazilian national team that participated in the Copa América Centenário this month, Marquinhos wants to sort out his future before going on a much needed vacation. Brazil were eliminated from the competition on Sunday, after a controversial defeat to Peru. According to the information from Spanish newspaper SPORT, Barcelona will make a final attempt to negotiate with PSG for the signing of the 22-year-old. Marquinhos has refused to rule out an exit from Paris in the upcoming transfer window, and hasn’t rejected the possibility of signing for a club like Barcelona. However, although negotiations have already taken place, PSG seems to be holding firm in their decision to not let go of Marquinhos, who’s seen as the natural successor to Thiago Silva by club president Nasser Al-Khelaïfi. The player’s representatives reached a deal with Barcelona, ​​but PSG have resisted every approach, so far. Hence now, before the start of the holidays, Barcelona can make a last attempt for Marquinhos. The Catalans have already signalled that they are willing to offer €40 million for the former Corinthians and AS Roma player.
