Paris Saint-Germain striker Edinson Cavani says Marco Verratti is “the best teammate I’ve ever had”.
The Italian international joined the French club from Pescara in 2012, and has since gone on to become one of the most highly-rated midfielders in Europe.
“Verratti? He’s phenomenal and he could play for any team in Europe,” Cavan told Marca.
“He is the best teammate I've ever had, not only because of how he plays on the pitch, but also because of how he behaves away from the pitch.

The Italian international joined the French club from Pescara in 2012, and has since gone on to become one of the most highly-rated midfielders in Europe.
“Verratti? He’s phenomenal and he could play for any team in Europe,” Cavan told Marca.
“He is the best teammate I've ever had, not only because of how he plays on the pitch, but also because of how he behaves away from the pitch.
“He is a good person, very optimistic and he plays with class.
"If he continues to work like this, he will become as one of the best players [in the world], so it's an honour to play with him.”
Cavani has been linked with a move to Juventus, but was coy on his future.
“There have always been rumours about me moving and it's good because that means that I am a coveted player, but it's also bad because some might say that I'm not happy anywhere, which isn't true.
“I can only say that I still have a two-year contract with PSG and I want to respect that.
“Many things could happen and most of them are not under my control, it will all depend on how I finish the season and the kind of decisions PSG make this summer.”
