PSG transfer news: Update on Chevalier, second bid and growing frustration

Lucas Chevalier, Lille's 23-year-old goalkeeper (contract until 2027) and French national team player, is rumored to be close to joining Paris Saint-Germain in this transfer market to replace Gianluigi Donnarumma (26 years old, contract until 2026 and extension blocked). L'Equipe claims on Wednesday that PSG has sent a second proposal, without success. A file that would be frustrating the Parisian management.

"An agreement could only be reached under several conditions."

"Paris Saint-Germain's desire to bring in Lucas Chevalier (23) is just as strong. The contractual agreement with the goalkeeper is already tied up. Paris has sent two oral offers to LOSC since the start of discussions, for two rejections. The last one is for €40M, including bonuses, when the Northerners want to have €40M, excluding bonuses. The Lille management explained to the Parisians that an agreement could only be reached under several conditions: that Paris gets closer to the financial demands first - the two parties are no longer very far from an agreement -, that a replacement is found afterwards. Neither of the two has been achieved yet, but Lille will not block its player. On the Parisian side, one is starting to get annoyed with the tone of the negotiations, without questioning - yet - a possible transfer."

We remain necessarily cautious, there is nothing concrete in this file. There has been no confirmation. Even if PSG's interest seems to exist, we have already seen the transfer market surprise us with a rebound. The price has never been announced concretely either, nor the Parisian offer. Difficult, therefore, to have certainties.

However, we hope that the media are not insisting for nothing. The negotiation may be underway, and difficult. Lille cannot part with Chevalier without a replacement and will not give away the current number 2 of the French national team. Just like PSG does not want to simply spend millions more. The time is still for patience, unfortunately.
