PSG's Marquinhos says a Catalan radio station FAKED an interview in which 'he' asked for Barca move

This is a crackpot story.

On Tuesday afternoon, Catalan radio station Rac1 held a live interview with PSG defender Marquinhos, in which the highly-prized centre-back indicated he wanted to join Barcelona.

In the interview Marquinhos said:

It's a dream to play for Barcelona. My desire is to play for Barça. I want to play for Barça, not for PSG.

Barça is better than PSG. Barça is a great club. Neymar has told me that he is living very well in Barcelona.

Now there was only one thing wrong with the interview: it was complete made up!

In a mad twist, Marquinhos has come out to deny he was ever on the phone with Rac1, saying:

The statements to RAC1 radio are totally FALSE, I never said those things and that is not my voice!

RAC1's @RogerSaperas says he did not invent any interview with Marquinhos and confirms that the voice was his. Something's fishy about this.

Holy word, you're not gonna believe this! RAC1 apparently interviewed Brazil's U20 goalkeeper Marcos, thinking he's Marquinhos the CB!
