To identify the verbal in the sentence below we need to know that unlike ordinary verbs, verbals are not inflected for person and tense. Infinitives often preceded by to , gerunds and present participles are verbals that can function as nouns, adjectives, or adverbs.

The puppy, Charlie, wanted to play with everyone around him.

Verbal: to play

Type of verbal: infinitive with to
