Lucas Chevalier, 23-year-old goalkeeper from Lille (contract until 2027) and the French national team, is rumored to be close to Paris Saint-Germain in this transfer window to replace Gianluigi Donnarumma (26 years old, contract until 2026 and extension blocked). Le Parisien now states that PSG is optimistic about this transfer.
“Lucas Chevalier’s contribution has already been approved by Luis Enrique.”
While Gianluigi Donnarumma’s contract extension is frozen due to a lack of agreement between the two parties, the Parisian club has been in contact with the Lille goalkeeper to anticipate a possible departure of the Italian, who is under contract until 2026.
Lucas Chevalier’s contribution has already been approved by Luis Enrique, who was able to meet in person with the French national team’s second-choice goalkeeper to explain his expectations. Behind the scenes, the management of the two clubs have been in contact for several days in an effort to find common ground.
“Chevalier, very excited about signing with the European champions”
According to a Lille source, it would take just over €40 million to convince Olivier Létang to part with his starting goalkeeper. While waiting for the negotiations between Lille and PSG to be finalized, Lucas Chevalier is very excited about signing with the European champions.
This weekend, there was a certain optimism surrounding Lucas Chevalier’s transfer to PSG.”
Nothing is impossible. Chevalier’s transfer has been discussed for several days and isn’t unreasonable. It’s a logical possibility to replace Donnarumma. However, nothing is certain yet.
The rumors are piling up, except that nothing is concrete. We must therefore remain cautious. We’ve already seen many cases change quickly during a transfer window. Like Nuno Mendes, who was mentioned at Manchester United last winter before a contract extension.
Everything can still change quickly; there’s even talk in some media outlets that Donnarumma’s contract extension is still possible.
