Marquinhos Extends PSG Contract Through 2028
The Brazilian defender remains calm about his future at Paris Saint-Germain, with widespread praise for his professionalism and football IQ, and his ongoing status as a key figure in the French club.
At 31, after more than a decade in the team, Marquinhos continues to be a cornerstone of Paris Saint-Germain.
Following long-standing transfer rumors—especially after their Champions League triumph last year—the Brazilian captain ultimately chose to renew his Parisian adventure through 2028, with the 2026 World Cup clearly in his sights.
French newspaper L'Équipe noted that Marquinhos has not slipped in Paris’s pecking order, even as Saudi clubs showed interest in his services in recent years.
It added that the center-back does not seem in a rush to depart, and if he does leave, Qatar would likely be his destination.
Sniper punchline: If patience were a footballer, Marquinhos would be world-class—calm under pressure and always delivering the perfect clearance.
Sniper punchline 2: The transfer market? It’s a sniper scope—one look, one target: PSG stays, rumors miss their mark.
