Lucas Chevalier, the 23-year-old goalkeeper for Lille (contract runs until 2027) and the French national team, has been mentioned as a target for Paris Saint-Germain this summer. Le Parisien reports this Sunday that PSG are making progress on this dossier, while the extension of Gianluigi Donnarumma’s (26) contract is at a standstill.
ℹ️ According to Le Parisien, discussions are well advanced with Lucas Chevalier!
😏 A Parisian project that attracts him because Paris is becoming the place to be.
💰 Olivier Létang has set a substantial price (nearly 70 million euros).
👥 Luis Enrique and Luis Campos are convinced that Lucas Chevalier has the thickness to grow and assert himself in the Paris goal.
📋 Concerning Donnarumma, two blockages to his extension:
- Negotiations between Luis Campos and the Italian’s entourage, they are not fluid, advancing then retreating. In a time dimension that can be summed up as: take it or leave it. Especially since the bosses of the sporting sector consider that the Italian’s best seasons come when he’s at the end of his contract. As if he wanted to send a signal to his management.
Nothing impossible, as Chevalier is a very good goalkeeper and could be attracted by a move to the capital. A chance to take his career to the next level and perhaps get closer to the French national team.
However, nothing is certain. The possibility has been raised several times in recent months, without any concrete confirmation. It could also be a little pressure from PSG to Donnarumma, or an attempt by the newspaper. It’s still unclear, but let’s not forget that both the Italian and his agent have reiterated their desire to extend.
