The London-based clubs are reportedly interested in the Italian youngster, followed by rumours that the midfielder might be looking towards an exit from Paris Saint-Germain.
Marco Verratti is said to be interested in a move away from Paris Saint-Germain, followed by the expected departure of current manager, Carlo Ancelotti, next summer. The Italian has sparked interest from several clubs including http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 and former
pursuers, Juventus.  
The 20-year-old has proven to be a revelation this season, following his transfer from Pescara to French giants, Paris Saint-Germain. The player has carved himself a place in the starting line-up despite the presence of world class football players, having
a bright future ahead of him.
The Italian was on the radar of several clubs last summer, who tried to lure the youngster to join them, with Juventus among the interested parties. However, it was Paris Saint-Germain who ended up successfully signing the midfielder for an undisclosed fee.
This season, different contenders have appeared for signing the young playmaker. Arsenal and Chelsea are both interested in the Italian international, with the clubs having to battle it out with the Italian giants, Juventus, in the race to sign the les Parisiens
midfielder.
Chelsea has what it takes to tempt Verratti to join the London-based club, as the Blues can provide him with a handsome salary and a chance to play at the top tier of English football. With Arsenal promising the same, the Gunners might hesitate to meet the
expensive price-tag set for the Pescara-born player.
Although, nothing concrete has yet surfaced, an offer from either of the London-based clubs can be witnessed in the coming days. The former FA Cup winners need to make a move soon, as Italian giants, Juventus, seem keen on signing the PSG midfielder.
The former Pescara player is one who possesses the ability to play as a defensive playmaker, a role that is excelled by players like http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Xabi-Alonso-c37045 and Andrea Pirlo. Despite the complications of the position, the former Pescara midfielder seems
to play at that particular position with great ease.
The Bianconeri are seeking a replacement for aging Andrea Pirlo, with Verratti appearing to be right successor for the Italian talisman. The midfielder has a similar playing style with that of the former AC Milan player, and could be tempted by an offer
that lures him back to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Italy-c2926.
