It is a file that animated the start of the PSG transfer window and which should therefore be concluded in the last days of this same transfer window. Despite a year 2025 in cannonball, Gianluigi Donnarumma obviously did not convince his leaders. The Italian porter, a large craftsman of the coronation in the Champions League with significant services in the direct elimination phase, has been neglecting a contract extension for several months. But he did not agree with his management, who, at the same time, worked mainly on a new profile.
Luis Enrique had set his sights on the Lille goalkeeper Lucas Chevalier. After several weeks of negotiations, the young French porter landed in Paris for more than 40 million euros. And if Donnarumma is still at the club, Luis Enrique was clear: there is no question of making the two goalkeepers coexist. Lucas Chevalier arrived as number one and Donnarumma was quickly invited to find a new club. Related from the group during the European Super Cup, it was not present for the first two days of Ligue 1 either.
A price lower than the amount desired by PSG
The situation of the Italian international, one year before the end of his contract, rebatted the cards among the big clubs. This is particularly the case with Manchester City, who had decided to bet on the porter James Trafford. The English goalkeeper landed from Burnley for more than 30 million euros, in a number one role, Pep Guardiola no longer really counting on Ederson. But now, Donnarumma represents a market opportunity not to be missed and City managers have understood this. According to information from Sky Sports and journalist Fabrizio RomanoManchester City has already reached an agreement with the 26 -year -old goalkeeper, who wishes to evolve under the orders of Pep Guardiola.
Negotiations are now underway between City and PSG. But according to the British press, PSG should touch less than expected for its goalkeeper. While the Parisian management hoped at least 50 million euros, the trend is that the deal is looming well below this amount. For City to go at the end of the file, the English club must first find a exit door in Ederson. The Brazilian goalkeeper is in the viewfinder of Galatasaray, which multiplies the tracks in this position. It will be necessary to finalize this departure and then take action on Donnarumma. City therefore seems determined to seize this market opportunity.
