Despite rumors of his departure, Marquinhos remains firmly committed to Paris Saint-Germain.

The Paris captain, who recently extended his contract until 2028 in December 2023, says his goal is to continue playing for PSG: “The future is always uncertain in football, but at the moment my priority is PSG. I still have a lot to give and bring to this team. We have important matches remaining, and I am motivated to take them on,” he declared this Saturday.
Marquinhos, although essential to PSG since 2013, finds himself at the center of discussions with Saudi clubs, according to The Team. After attempts this summer, Saudi Arabian clubs seem ready to relaunch their offer with tempting proposals.

Negotiations are still ongoing with his brother, who also acts as his agent. The Brazilian defender could thus find himself at a decisive moment in his career, having to choose between staying in Paris or embarking on a new adventure in Saudi Arabia.
With this in mind, Paris Saint-Germain have already identified their potential successor. The club would be interested in Abdukodir Khusanov, a young 20-year-old central defender from RC Lens, who could be integrated into the squad to prepare for the post-Marquinhos era.

According to The TeamKhusanov perfectly matches the criteria sought by PSG: a dynamic young player, capable of adapting to the demands of coach Luis Enrique. Under contract with Lens until 2027, Khusanov is represented by Jorge Mendes, an agent close to PSG, which could facilitate a future negotiation. PSG continues to closely follow this path to strengthen its defense in the long term.
