The former Pescara man has already verbally accepted a three-year deal to join fellow midfield stars Ruben Neves and Sergej Milinkovic Savic at the Pro League side but the French champions are currently holding out for more than the $33m fee that is being offered by Al Hilal.
During his long spell at the Parc des Princes, Verratti has won nine Ligue 1 titles and six Coupe de France trophies with the Parisian giants.
