Carlo Ancelotti wants to bring Marco Verratti to Real Madrid next season but the club's relationship with Paris Saint-Germain could halt the move.

  • Ancelotti wants Verratti at Real Madrid
  • Verratti wants to leave PSG
  • Real Madrid and PSG directors not on good terms

WHAT HAPPENED? Verratti, who has spent 10 seasons at PSG and even extended his contract until 2026 earlier this year, is reportedly unhappy with the internal conflict at the club and wants to leave, according to Get Football.

THE BIGGER PICTURE: The report further states that Real Madrid boss Ancelotti is keen on signing the Italian midfielder in the summer. The only issue with that move is the two clubs' directors, who are not on good terms.

AND WHAT'S MORE: L’Équipe reports that while sporting advisor Luis Campos is ready to sanction the Italian's move, club president Nasser Al-Khelaifi wants to retain his services.
