Gianluigi Donnarumma, Paris Saint-Germain’s 26-year-old goalkeeper (under contract until 2026), is once again at the center of transfer rumors. With Lucas Chevalier (23, French international) arriving from Lille to take over the starting role, Donnarumma now looks set to leave. According to Marca, his most likely destination is Manchester City.
“Manchester City have moved quickly and efficiently to finalize the deal. Donnarumma has already had personal contact with the Sky Blues, and his desire is to work under Pep Guardiola as soon as possible.
Talks between City and PSG are progressing well, and the transfer fee is expected to be below the €50 million initially demanded by the Parisian club. The deal is imminent, but it still depends on one last detail: Ederson’s departure.”
This is yet another confirmation of the move that appears to be taking shape, though nothing is guaranteed just yet. The exact fee remains unclear, with only indications that it will be “below” PSG’s first valuation. As always in football, nothing is certain until the official announcement is made. If the transfer does go through, however, it would spare PSG the awkward situation of keeping Donnarumma as a backup.
