PSG transfer news: Chevalier confirmed, Zabarnyi and Donnarumma updates | OneFootball

This is the continuation of the saga: a synthesis of the latest news about the Paris Saint-Germain transfer window. This includes a round-up of the last 24 hours (published earlier in the evening) to review what is happening or not, what is progressing or surprising. Today, we're talking about Lucas Chevalier, Ilya Zabarnyi and Gianluigi Donnarumma.

It's official:

The 23-year-old goalkeeper from the French team officially signed this Saturday evening from Lille, with a 5-year contract. The transfer is estimated by the media at 55 million euros including bonuses (40 million "fixed").

Opinion on the transfer:

It's a bit of a summer surprise, as we thought that Gianluigi Donnarumma (26 years old) was going to extend and stay "quietly" number 1 in Paris. But the negotiation is blocked and the French goalkeeper is on a very interesting rise. With a style of play, a little more comfortable with the foot and in the outings far from the goal, which probably suits coach Luis Enrique better. Not to mention that he displays better statistics in stops last season.

It's a big expense that is not made at random. He should also receive a much lower salary compared to Donnarumma, who now needs to find a way out as cohabitation could be tense.

Transfers possibly soon finalized:

After very (very) long negotiations with Bournemouth, Paris has finally reached a total agreement for the 22-year-old defender from Ukraine according to numerous media. We are still waiting for an official confirmation, as well as the timing of a medical visit, to know when the signature can take place. But there is almost no doubt, it will be in the next few days.

Possible transfers:

The 26-year-old goalkeeper, whose contract extension that ends in 2026 seems blocked, could well leave following the arrival of Chevalier. Even if some media have mentioned cohabitation. Several have especially highlighted the interest of Manchester United, Chelsea and Inter Milan. In the last few hours, Manchester City has also been mentioned.

Transfer probability: 8/10.
