Gianluigi Donnarumma, the 26-year-old goalkeeper who joined Paris Saint-Germain in 2021 on a contract until 2026 (following the end of his contract with AC Milan), is at the center of rumors. His contract extension has not been finalized, and there is talk of him leaving, with Lucas Chevalier (23) set to replace him. RMC Sport confirmed on Monday that Chelsea and Manchester United are on the lookout. But nothing concrete has been decided yet.
“Chelsea and Manchester United have shown interest in Gianluigi Donnarumma’s situation. However, this matter is still far from being settled, as for the moment, it is only a simple expression of interest on the part of the two English clubs. No formal discussions have yet been initiated with the player’s entourage. If no project deemed attractive by the Italian goalkeeper emerges, he could then remain at Paris Saint-Germain.
Those close to the player have made it clear that Gianluigi Donnarumma will only leave if he finds an interesting project. Otherwise, he will honor the final year of his contract. The message is clear: he will not leave to please PSG management.”
Chelsea and Manchester United have been mentioned numerous times in this report, so we can hope that it’s not just a coincidence. Even if the media sometimes make a big deal out of nothing in order to fuel rumors. In fact, there’s no question of any attempt being made. It is simply a matter of interest, which is somewhat straightforward given that the number one goalkeepers at these clubs are not entirely convincing.
There is a lot of uncertainty, even though there are some possible leads in England. We do not know whether Donnarumma will stay this season or push to leave. We will have to wait for concrete information to gain a clearer picture.
