PSG defender Marquinhos admits Barcelona AND Manchester United have made attempts to sign him over the past year. Barca famously made a serious attempt to sign Marquinhos last summer, with director Raul Sanllehi following the 20 year-old to Brazil before last year's World Cup in an attempt to strike terms.
In the end, no agreement could be found with PSG refusing to consider his sale.
Now, Marquinhos is the subject of intense interest from United and told Telefoot: "If Manchester United want me, I can say Barcelona wanted me, too. These two clubs have negotiated with PSG but my managers were given no choice.
"That gave me confidence. The president and coach are happy with me. It would be good to renew with Paris, because I'm happy here."
