Gianluigi Donnarumma, the 26-year-old goalkeeper who arrived at Paris Saint-Germain in 2021 with a contract running until 2026 (following the end of his own at AC Milan), is regularly called into question by fans and observers alike. An extension is currently under discussion, but is still uncertain despite the Italian’s stated desire. His agent was invited by Sky to discuss the situation.
“We still need to talk to PSG”
“We still need to talk with PSG and then we’ll see. There are several proposals. Inter Milan? Of course they like him, but there’s nothing more than that. The same goes for Napoli.”
There’s no question of announcing a signature, as it’s not yet a done deal. This will require discussions leading to an agreement. It’s not a done deal yet, and the agent can “put the pressure on” with other proposals on the table. However, Donnarumma again sent a clear message in his press conference:
Donnarumma “I’m ready for anything, but the first option is to stay in Paris.”
“I’m ready for anything, but the first option is to stay in Paris: I’ve found balance there, the team and the fans love me and I hope to spend many years there. Now I’m enjoying the moment and maybe one day I’ll be able to go back to Italy”, comments relayed by L’Equipe.
Donnarumma can’t guarantee that he’ll stay at PSG, as that depends on negotiations. But it’s clearly his first choice, which should help in reaching an agreement. It would be strange to turn to another goalkeeper when we already have one of the best in the world in our squad. Let’s wait and see how the negotiations go, with the hope of an extension in Paris.
