Le Parisien says Enrique informed Verratti that he would “never play for me” in talks while on preseason tour. Sporting director Luis Campos was present at the meeting.

Enrique had learned of Verratti’s love of the Paris nightlife, which had earned him the nickname ‘Owl’, in the early days of his appointment. The new PSG coach decided on tour that the midfielder wasn’t compatible with what he had planned.
