Paris Saint-Germain dropped goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma from his team on Wednesday’s UEFA Super Cup, which is clear that the Italian east of the club is immediate. This step comes in the middle of imitating messages that Donnarumma will leave PSG this summer, without a plan to extend its current contract, which takes place until June 2026.
Before the high -ranking accessories against Europa League Tottenham Hotspur in Udine, Italy, Donnarumma, 26 years, who played a key role last year in the recent PSG success, which were omitted from the travel team last season. Yet, despite his integral contributions, his relationship with the club reportedly “completely disintegrated” according to reliable sources.
Extensive reports suggest that negotiations on the renewal of the contract have stopped, and PSG seemed to proceed forward without an Italian goalkeeper. The arrival of French goalkeeper Lucas Chevalier of Lille for the reported 47 million strengthens this story. Chevalier, 23, impressed during the previous Ligue 1 campaign and is ready to become the first goalkeeper of coach Luis Enrique.
Meanwhile, sources close to players suggest that Donnarumma’s camp is not satisfied with how the club solved the situation this summer. Transfer Fabrizio Romano said that the summer departure from Paris is “100% guaranteed”, although Donnarumma did not exclude the opportunity to go to free transfer when his contract expired next year. The Premier League is widely considered to be its most likely goal, while chasing leads Manchester United and Manchester City.
Manchester United seems to be particularly well placed to ensure the Italian signature, especially after the recently again signing James Traford of Burnley of Manchester for 27 million. Red Devils spent almost 200 million on new signatures this summer, including Benjamin Sesko, Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunhy, which signaled their intention to strengthen all areas of the team. The current goalkeeper with the first selection of United Andon And Onana missed the whole season due to injury to hamstring, which intensified the need to strengthen at the finish before their Opener Premier League against Arsenal.
Since connection to PSG from AC Milan in 2021, Donnarumma performed more than 160 performances for the club and helped to provide four league titles next to the sought -after champions league trophy. His performance last season earned him a place in the team of the UEFA Champions League season and underlines his position one of the best goalies in the world.
