Gianluigi Donnarumma, the 26-year-old goalkeeper who joined Paris Saint-Germain in 2021 on a contract until 2026, is at the center of rumors. His contract extension has not been finalized, and he has been asked to leave after not being called up for the UEFA Super Cup against Tottenham, following the arrival of Lucas Chevalier (23, French national team) from Lille to replace him. The Athletic reports that a door that has been regularly mentioned is in fact closed.
“Gianluigi Donnarumma is reportedly ready to leave PSG as he enters the final year of his contract, following the transfer of Lille goalkeeper Lucas Chevalier to the Parc des Princes, according to James Horncastle.
But Manchester United is not expected to pursue Donnarumma. Andre Onana hopes to play against Arsenal.”
A few hours ago, journalist Fabrizio Romano denied Chelsea’s interest. Now it’s Manchester United’s turn to be ruled out. With these two clubs having been the most talked about in the Donnarumma saga, one wonders who remains in the running. Even if these are just rumors, new developments are still possible.
Galatasaray and Manchester City have also been mentioned for this summer. The latter seems a little more likely, as the Turkish club is said to have reached an agreement in principle with Ederson. But beware, nothing is set in stone yet.
