Paris Saint-Germain are weighing a longer stay for captain Marquinhos and have approached his representatives about extending his contract beyond June 2028, according to Le Parisien. The Brazilian defender, 32, has not made his position on a possible extension known.

There has been no reported formal offer, and neither the length of a potential deal nor its financial terms have been determined. An agreement is not imminent. PSG announced his existing contract in May 2023.

The club have also been strengthening their younger defensive options. Illya Zabarnyi moved to Paris from Bournemouth in 2025, while Willian Pacho agreed in September to stay until 2031. Lucas Beraldo also received an extension through 2031.

Marquinhos holds PSG's appearance record with 531 games since arriving from Roma in 2013. He led the team as captain when they won their first Champions League title in 2025 and played in the side that retained the trophy in 2026.

Le Parisien also reported that contract negotiations involving Ousmane Dembele and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia were progressing well. Those deals could extend their stays to 2030 and 2032, respectively. Negotiations over the two forwards are further along than the discussions concerning Marquinhos.
