In an interview with the Gazzetta dello Sport, Faouzi Ghoulam attacks PSG in the Donnarumma file.

The choice of Paris Saint-Germain to separate from Gianluigi Donnarumma continues to be talked about. Hero of the 2024-2025 season of the Parisian club, the Italian porter left PSG for Manchester City in a fairly tense context with the capital's club. This transfer does not leave indifferent and some specialists point to the Parisian management. Among them, Faouzi Ghoulam, former player of AS Saint-Etienne (2010-2014) and former Algerian international.

Now a consultant in Italy, the former Fennecs of Fennecs, who went through the Napoli from 2014 to 2022, did not chew his words in an interview with the Gazzetta dello Sport: ” PSG made a blatant error and has lacked respect in Gigio
(Donnarumma). »»

A craftsman of the Parisian coronation in the Champions League, Gianluigi Donnarumma would have been the victim of an incomprehensible choice of the Parisian management who would have liked to satisfy Luis Enrique by going to seek Lucas Chevalier. “” They wanted to satisfy the coach because he won, but we cannot treat a player who was decisive in key moments “Insists Ghoulam.

A choice that is not understandable at PSG

While Luis Enrique justified the choice to dismiss Gianluigi Donnarumma because of a weakness of his ball game on the foot, the consultant of Sky Sport, for his part, seems unconvinced by this explanation: ” If Gigio had really not been so good at his feet as it is said, to the point of encouraging PSG to change, would a coach like Pep take it? This excuse makes no sense.»»

For the former Stéphanois, the departure of the Italian remains a mystery, especially since the locker room and the supporters appreciated it. “I also live in Paris and I know stories and people: I know how loved he was and respected by his teammates and by people. I do not understand, because it is an inexplicable choice. It's stupid ”, declares the double winner of the Italian Cup (2014 and 2020).
