Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Marco Verratti is set to commit his long-term future to the club amid lingering interest from Arsenal and Manchester United.
As reported by talkSPORT this week, both Premier League clubs are admirers of the 21-year-old midfielder, who joined the Ligue 1 outfit from Pescara in 2012.
And there was some uncertainty surrounding his future, with Verratti angling for a new deal which would take him in line with some of the club's highest earners.
Real Madrid attempted to take advantage of the situation with a reported late bid for the Italian in the closing stages of the transfer window.
But now, according to sources in Italy, Verratti is ready to pen a five-year deal in Paris which will also provide a healthy pay rise.
