While the debate on the identity of the next Ballon d'Or is on all mouths, other individual awards awarded during this same ceremony also animate the discussions. In particular the Yachine Trophy rewarding the best goalkeeper of the past season.
With 40 matches played, 11 “Clean Sheets” and five trophies won with Paris Saint-Germain, including a Champions League, Gianluigi Donnarumma naturally stands out as one of the favorites, if not the favorite to win the bet. The Italian goalkeeper would hypothetically ahead of other big names evolving at his post, including Thibaut Courtois, David Raya or the young Lucas Chevalier and his very good season made on the LOSC side.
But this opinion does not seem to be shared by everyone. And even less by Christophe Lollichon, former coach of Petr Cech or Thibaut Courtois in Chelsea, between others. In an interview with the Tiktok page @pedro.footballethe current CANAL+ consultant did not chew his words concerning the new caretaker of Manchester City.
Donnarumma not regular enough
According to Christophe Lollichon, Donnarumma's lack of regularity fails to compensate for his Champions League exploits. “There is a part of the season that is not good”notes the former goalkeeper. Instead of the Italian porter, the ex-coach chooses David Raya. “I do not limit myself to the Champions League. I will see in the Premier League, I will see everything the guy brings to his team. (…) Raya is regularity ”, he summarizes
But after careful thinking, Christophe Lollichon brings his analysis even more against the current of public opinion and announces prefer … Lucas Chevalier! “Does it surprise you?” »»has fun the expert on the goalkeeper post, who continues. “Even if it means surprising, I like it because it was decisive this boy, in a lot of compartments of the game.”
What worry Mike Maignan in the French team? The interviewee boot in touch. In any case, the new PSG goalkeeper will appreciate the statements.
