Recruited by PSG two years ago, when he was at the end of his contract with AC Milan, Gianluigi Donnarumma struggled to win unanimous support in Paris.
Alternating with Keylor Navas during his first season at Paris Saint-Germain, Gianluigi Donnarumma had extenuating circumstances, first and foremost the lack of a clear hierarchy on the part of Mauricio Pochettino. Last season, however, the Italian international did not have the slightest excuse. From the start of the season, Christophe Galtier made “Gigio” his owner and never put him in competition with any goalkeeper whatsoever.

In order to put him even more at ease, Keylor Navas was loaned to Nottingham Forest during the winter transfer window. Despite this, Gianluigi Donnarumma has never been unanimous, sometimes alternating very good as on his line… and incomprehensible blunders, especially on aerial outings. Under contract with PSG until June 2026, the native of Castellammare del Golfo did not really seem to be on the start. But according to information from Calcio Mercato News, we should remain cautious.
Luis Enrique will have the last word on the Donnarumma case
Indeed, for the moment, Luis Enrique has not made his choice about his future goalkeeper. But internally, a departure from Gianluigi Donnarumma is discussed within the upper echelons of the Parisian club. Tired of the irregular performances of the former Milanese, the leaders of PSG are thinking very seriously of parting with them and Juventus Turin could position themselves.

However, the Turin club has a rather efficient and regular goalkeeper in the person of Wojciech Szczęsny, but the Old Lady could jump at the chance to recover Gianluigi Donnarumma, in the event that the reigning French champion places him on the transfer list. . As a reminder, Keylor Navas is returning from his loan to Nottingham and will therefore be at the disposal of Luis Enrique even if initially, the plan of Paris was rather to make him leave in order to save his salary, especially since Saudi Arabia is in the ranks to recruit the ex-Real Madrid goalkeeper. The vagueness is therefore total on the situation of the goalkeepers at PSG and for the moment, nothing says that Gianluigi Donnarumma will keep the Parisian cages next season.
