"Verratti is the cornerstone of our midfield and things will remain that way," Kluivert said to Le10Sport. "He is not going anywhere this year."Before the match, Verratti's brother Stefano had suggested his sibling would be willing to stay at PSG for the rest of his career, given how well he has settled at the club. Marco spoke of his shock in the aftermath of the Camp Nou capitulation, which saw Barca score three times from the 88th minute to win the last-16 tie 6-5 on aggregate."Three goals in seven minutes - I cannot find an explanation," Verratti said to L'Equipe. "This is a game I will never forget and I hope it will serve as a lesson to everyone. "We lost 6-1, so it was not the referee's fault. We are the first ones responsible for this."PSG are yet to progress past the quarter-finals in Europe's elite club competition.</blockquote>
