United, meanwhile, were apparently linked with a £79million move for the Italy international this summer, with Zlatan Ibrahimovic said to be desperate for Verratti to join him at Old Trafford under new boss Mourinho.
But a move to England appears unlikely after Verratti, who joined PSG from Serie A side Pescara in July 2012, hinted that he would like to test himself in his native Italy again.
“I’m fine in Paris, I am well set and I intend to stay there as long as possible,” Verratti said.
