Paris Saint -Germain has reportedly agreed a deal for a new keeper, leaving the future of Gianluigi Donnarumma in the air – with Manchester United and Manchester City now ready to bounce.
United still hunts stability between the sticks after a rough game of two years by Andre Onana, who did not make an impression since he became with Inter Milan at Inter Milan in 2023.
Since his arrival, no Premier League goalkeeper has committed more mistakes that leads to goals in all competitions than the eight of Onana. His savings percentage in 2024–25 was only 67.2 percent – in 11th place in the competition.
In the meantime in City, the future of Ederson has been questioned and the club James Trafford will again sign Burnley for £ 27 million.
Trafford is considered a smart talent that could offer competition or ultimately follow Edererson along the line.
The 22-year-old came through the Academy of City, but never made a senior performance for the first team before he came to Burnley in 2023 for £ 15 million-toch a back-back option for their exciting talent.
According to L'Equipe, PSG comes after signing Lille's promising Shot stopper Lucas Chevalier.
The 23-year-old is seen as a long-term project that could eventually start for the French Capital Club.
The arrival of Chevalier could force Donnarumma to consider his options, whereby both United and City are said to be in the race to sign him.
Before the departure of Donnarumma is punished, it is assumed that PSG wants to protect the signing of Chevalier.
Donnarumma enjoyed the most successful season of his career in 2024-25 and registered 12 clean sheets when PSG marched to an imperious Treble-winning campaign.
The Italian Shot stopper is generally considered the leader to win the Yashin trophy for the second time a prize that is awarded to the best-performing goalkeeper in the world.
It has not yet been announced what PSG would demand for Donnarumma, but it would not be surprising if clubs were forced to break the bank for him.
Kepa Arrizabalaga remains the most expensive keeper ever, after Chelsea signed him from Athletic Bilbao in 2018 for £ 71.6 million.
The Donnarumma deal ends in the summer of 2026, but he made it clear that he wants to stay in Paris.
“My priority is to stay with PSG and sign a new deal,” he said last month. “I don't think there will be problems in the negotiations.”
Donnarumma started his career with the youth system of the ASD club Napoli before moving to AC Milan, where he made his series to 16 years old in 2015.
He confirmed himself as not only one of the most exciting young talents, but also one of the best keepers in world football, before he came to PSG in the summer of 2021 as a free agent.
