Donnarumma feels slighted, PSG wary of another Mbappé saga | OneFootball

Gianluigi Donnarumma, the 26-year-old goalkeeper who joined Paris Saint-Germain in 2021 with a contract until 2026 (after his deal with AC Milan ended), is at the center of rumors. His contract extension has not come through and there is talk of a departure, with Lucas Chevalier (23 years old, Lille and the French national team) being considered as his replacement. Corriere della Sera provided an update this Monday morning and confirms that the Italian is not convinced by the formula proposed by PSG. He is also reportedly a bit upset by the lack of protection during difficult moments. Meanwhile, Paris maintains a firm stance.

“The goalkeeper did not feel protected by the club”

All of this is not impossible to believe. In fact, it generally matches what has been claimed recently. But be careful, these are not certainties either. These are just rumors. They could be confirmed, as it’s plausible given that the media are all pointing in the same direction. However, we have already seen such cases fall apart with a response from the club or the player.

We remember Nuno Mendes (23-year-old left-back) who had reportedly chosen to sign with Manchester United… Except he extended with PSG just a few days after the rumors. So let’s wait and see to get a clearer picture. Everything remains open as long as nothing concrete has happened.

But it makes sense that this summer’s decision will be a significant one. Donnarumma will either extend or leave, most likely. The question remains whether this formula proposed by Paris is truly an obstacle.
