Paris Saint-Germain target Lucas Chevalier, the 23-year-old goalkeeper for LOSC, is reported to have recently spoken with Luis Enrique, the Parisian club’s coach. As confirmed by journalist Santi Aouna (Foot Mercato), who added that Nasser Al-Khelaïfi is handling discussions with Lille officials. The goalkeeper could soon arrive to replace Gianluigi Donnarumma (26), whose potential contract extension (until 2026) is currently stalled.
“Luis Enrique clearly expressed his desire to bring him into his project, emphasizing the crucial role he envisions for him within the team. “
“Luis Enrique recently had a Facetime conversation with Lucas Chevalier, goalkeeper for LOSC, demonstrating the PSG coach’s keen interest in the Lille goalkeeper. During this conversation, Luis Enrique clearly expressed his desire to bring him into his project, emphasizing the crucial role he envisioned for him within the team.
The coach explained that he wanted Chevalier to become the first playmaker, a key position in his system, where the goalkeeper must be able to drive the game forward from the defense and support the team in attack. PSG and Chevalier have already reached a contractual agreement.
According to our sources, Nasser Al-Khelaïfi is leading the discussions with LOSC. For his part, Lucas Chevalier has reportedly informed Lille that he wishes to join Paris Saint-Germain, convinced by the club’s ambitions and the prospects outlined by Luis Enrique.”
This story is gaining momentum in the capital, and we will need to keep an eye on developments over the coming days. For now, these are just rumors, but in the summer transfer window, things can move very quickly. Chevalier’s arrival at PSG could happen relatively soon.
However, a new twist in the tale cannot be ruled out either. Let’s not forget that Donnarumma also needs to leave. This is being reported in the media, but it is not yet concrete. A surprise remains possible. There are still many discussions to be held, including negotiations for the Italian goalkeeper’s transfer to a new club if the deadlock over his new Parisian contract is confirmed.
