Marco Verratti: "Nothing can make me leave Paris Saint-Germain"

Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Marco Verratti has insisted that he has no intention of leaving the club.

Recent reports have suggested that both Real Madrid and Juventus have identified the Italian international as a summer transfer target.

However, despite the speculation, the 21-year-old has expressed his desire to remain at the Parc des Princes.

"Nothing can make me leave Paris Saint Germain. I am feeling very well here," he told L'Equipe.

"I am feeling just fine both on and off the pitch. Not everybody gets the chance to be a starter at a big club like this and develop into a better player.

"PSG are a great team with a lot of ambition. The club has an interesting project going on and has some big objectives. At this point, I don't think there's any chance that I will leave this club."

Verratti signed for PSG from his boyhood club Pescara in July 2012.
