DOHA: Amir Cup champions Al Arabi on Wednesday announced the signing of Italian international Marco Verratti, who left Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) after an 11-year trophy-laden tenure with the French side.
In a statement on its website, the club announced they have signed a three-year contract with the 30-year-old midfielder who is expected to make his Qatar debut in next round of Expo Stars League (ESL).
Verratti won Ligue 1 and the Trophee des Champions nine times as well as the Coupe de France and the Coupe de la Ligue six times for the Parisians. He ended his PSG stint as their second most capped player with 416 appearances, just short of Jean-Marc Pilorget’s tally of 435 matches.
