Paris Saint-Germain complete a £27m deal to sign defender Marquinhos from Roma, who moves to the French capital on a five-year contract.

Paris Saint-Germain have continued their summer spending spree by signing Brazilian defender Marquinhos on a five-year deal.

The French champions paid Roma a fee of £27m for the 19-year-old, with his former club Corinthians also due around £2.3m because of a sell-on clause.

Marquinhos has declared that he is proud to have completed a move to the French capital, with the teenager ready to swap Serie A for Ligue 1 under coach Laurent Blanc.

He told the club's official website: "I am delighted to be joining Paris St-Germain, a club where so many Brazilians have played and helped write the club's history.

"I will do everything I can to continue that tradition and write my own name into the club's illustrious history books."

Last season Marquinhos made 26 appearances for Roma in his debut campaign for a European team.

PSG have now spent more than £80m on two players from the Italian top flight this week with Marquinhos following striker Edinson Cavani to the Parc des Princes.
