Paris Saint-Germain has recently become a headline through the purchase of star players, such as Ezequiell Lavezzi of Napoli, Thiago Silva and Zlatan Ibrahimovic from AC Milan, while Marco Verratti's purchase also does not cause a bit of fanfare in Italy, considering he is staying digadang to star Future Azzurri. Verratti is named as the successor of Andrea Pirlo and is rated as one of the best young players available today.

"Still, in the Serie B competition, there are colleagues Ciro Immobile and Lorenzo Insigne, who also have great talent, are also often the spotlight of many parties."

Verratti is a midfielder who plays more deeply with enormous vision gifts and incredible bait range, comparing himself to Pirlo is inevitable, especially with the success of promotional Pescara coinciding with the success of Pirlo ushering Juventus champions.

However, according to Maisani nicknamed Verratti as the new Pirlo is a little misguided.

"In terms of position on the pitch, he can be compared to Pirlo, but in terms of game style he is more like Chilean David Pizarro," said Maisani.

"Some even compare it to Xavi, but he still does not have the same ability to bring the ball forward like the Spanish player."

"Also, his best position is in front of the back line but he must also be paired with a formidable midfielder."

Now he has moved to Ligue 1 France, what can he expect in PSG? Robin Bairner from GOAL.com France explains Verratti's future forecasts at his new club.

"PSG is one of the most ambitious clubs in Europe and in recent years they have gained a lot of wealth, but since Qatar Sports Investments  took over the club, they have said that ambition is not just for today but the future as well. ' Lionel Messi new 'they say, "Bairner said.

"In Verratti, they have earned the first star of the future, and a player that can be played to add the dimensions of the club game at a young age."

How he got into team delam in the near future, depends on his physique. But in the long run, he will get used to the core of the game, the players around him will move. Every big team needs a general, and a playmaker in the inner area like Pirlo will belong to PSG.

"I have a great impression of the club, they are champions.There are some players here that I see on TV and I am very proud to play with them," Verratti said.

"I am very happy coach Carlo Ancelotti gave me the confidence."

"I told Pescara that PSG is my first choice and they will be the biggest club in the world."

"Compared to Andrea Pirlo makes me flatter and happy, he is one of the most creative midfielders in the world."

If he can penetrate regular PSG regular teams, where Italian side Salvatore Sirigu and Thiago Motta have sealed his place, meaning he has taken the next step to follow in Pirlo's footsteps, giving PSG creativity in midfield.
