According to Le Parisien, PSG began discussions with the Lille Knight goalkeeper to succeed Donnarumma. Donnarumma has not accepted the last contract extension of the club and the club is not ready to improve it, which could see it replace the Italian international this summer. Knight, 23, would be a key target for PSG, which considers it a long -term solution in goals. However, the French international is reluctant to join the club as a replacement and is also watched by Premier League clubs, including Aston Villa.
Paris ready to let Gianluigi Donnarumma go
PSG is preparing emergency plans, because doubts persist as for Donnarumma to the club. The Italian goalkeeper is under contract until 2026 and had an excellent season, winning the title of Champion of Ligue 1 and the Coupe de France, in addition to European glory. However, the lack of agreement on an extension prompted PSG to explore other solutions. The Lille president, Olivier Letang, estimated knight at 70 million euros. The latter would also plan to extend his contract with the French club or to go abroad, faced with the interest of Aston Villa.
Donnarumma towards the departure?
Donnarumma openly expressed his wish to continue at PSG, but suggested that he could leave this summer: “ There are a lot of rumors, but the truth is that I am happy here. I feel appreciated by everyone here, the club has a lot of respect for me. I am very happy, I now have my marks here, so my priority is to extend. ”
He also recalled that nothing was decided at the end of the current season: ” I don't know, I don't know. We will see in the coming days. “
