Unlike the past seasons, Gianluigi Donnarumma is finally decisive during the major Champions League matches with Paris Saint-Germain. This is evidenced by his very high level performances in Anfield, during the eighth final return against Liverpool, and to Birmingham Tuesday evening on the lawn of Aston Villa.
Often critical of him in the past, Daniel Riolo may have changed his mind about the Italian goalkeeper.
“The fact that he displays this solidity is a rather positive message. You can count on him. He's the man of the match, he saves PSG ”, estimated the sports journalist on RMC.
The last bulwark of the capital's club, whose lease expires at the end of June 2026, wishes to extend the Ile -de -France adventure. Except that its leaders seem very cautious about his case. Indeed, since his arrival at the summer of 2021, he has never managed to be unanimous.
Donnarumma silenced criticism
However, the wind could have turned. “His future is still in reflection, recognizes Laurent Perrin, head of the Parisian sports service. The leaders still did not offer him an extension. I think the scale is leaning in its favor. Extending and clarifying his future would necessarily give him an additional trust. »»
Last February, PSG had formalized the extension of the contract of three of its executives, Achraf Hakimi, Vitinha, Nuno Mendes, in addition to that of the coach Luis Enrique. Gianluigi Donnarumma had not obtained this privilege.
