Marco Verratti said he holds no grudges having accepting an apology from L’Equipe after the French publication made inaccurate claims about him and Paris Saint-Germain team-mate Blaise Matuidi.
L’Equipe claimed Verratti and Matuidi partied two days before PSG’s humiliating 6-1 defeat to Barcelona which sent the French giants crashing out of the Champions League 6-5 on aggregate.
Based on apparent witnesses in a Paris nightclub, those accusations proved to be incorrect, leading to an apology after PSG had hit out at L’Equipe in the aftermath of the article.
“Excuses accepted, no grudges,” Verratti wrote via Instagram after uploading a photo of L’Equipe’s apology.
