Marquinhos signed a new contract with "Paris Saint-Germain" and thus put an end to all speculation about a possible departure. The future of the Brazilian in France was questioned because clubs like "Barcelona" or "Manchester United" showed interest in him. However, the center-back decided to link his future with PSG until 2022. The 23-year-old footballer received a more lucrative contract and is eager to fight with his club for the most important titles. "In this club and with this group of players that I am with every day, I feel very good," Marquinhos told the official PSG website. "I have found the perfect place to unfold and hope to win even more trophies." "For the past four years, I have been able to appreciate the progress of Paris Saint-Germain, which clearly helped me break into the national team." "I am really looking forward to starting preparations for the new season with my teammates and cannot wait to give my all so that our team continues to make our fans proud in the upcoming months." PSG President Nasser Al-Khelaifi did not hide his joy, stating that Marquinhos is a fantastic player with a great attitude. Since arriving from the "Roma" team in 2013, the Brazilian has played 155 matches in the current club and has won three "Ligue 1" titles, three "Coupe de France," and four league cups.
