Italy midfielder Marco Verratti has said goodbye to European football for the moment.
The diminutive central midfielder has left Paris St Germain to join Qatari side Al-Arabi.
Verratti, who is now 30, has spent the better part of his career with PSG since arriving in 2012.
I was very proud to wear the colours of Paris St Germain for more than a decade, to rub shoulders with so many great players, and to win 30 trophies," Verratti told the club website.
Paris, the Club and its supporters will always have a very special place in my heart. I will be Parisian forever."
The pass master has signed a three year deal with the Qatari side, who paid 39 million for his services, per Italian media reports.
