Gianluigi Donnarumma, the 26-year-old goalkeeper who joined Paris Saint-Germain in 2021 with a contract until 2026, is at the center of rumors. His contract extension has not materialized and he is being encouraged to leave, as he was not called up for the squad for the UEFA Super Cup against Tottenham, following the arrival of Lucas Chevalier (23 years old, French national team) from Lille to replace him. Journalist Nicolo Schira stated this Wednesday that Pep Guardiola and Erling Haaland (25-year-old striker) are pushing for his transfer to Manchester City.

“Manchester City is leading the race to try to sign Gigio Donnarumma. The main advocates of this potential transfer are Pep Guardiola and Erling Haaland, who are pressing to convince sporting director Viana to sign the goalkeeper. City is ready to start negotiations with PSG if Ederson leaves the club.”

Nothing is impossible, even if we should always be cautious with rumors. But it is very believable that Guardiola would be tempted by a goalkeeper of this caliber, just as Haaland, who is committed to City for the very long term, might want to have a Champions League winner on the team. Especially with Ederson (31 years old) who has been rumored to be leaving for a while and seems ready to join Galatasaray.

It’s hard to find a better opportunity this summer than Donnarumma. Even if there will be a certain cost, as PSG does not intend to give him away. The Parisian club also knows it must be reasonable in its demands, given that he has been sidelined and his contract ends in one year.
