Marcos Barros told Goal: "It's not just a matter of money. It's a matter of how he can be one of the best players in the team. "PSG needs to show him that he is one of the most important players in the team."The defender, who has 17 caps for Brazil, remains happy in Paris, where he has won three successive Ligue 1 titles, and outlined his intention to stay put back in March.Along with Adrien Rabiot and Marco Verratti, Marquinhos is seen as a key player for the club's future.</blockquote>
