Paris Saint-Germain have officially completed the signing of Lucas Chevalier from Lille, with the young goalkeeper stepping in as the new No.1. His statement of intent and ambition were clear in his remarks about joining the club, where he praised the influence of manager Luis Enrique as a deciding factor in his move. PSG are not stopping there, as Ilya Zabarnyi, the talented Ukrainian central defender from Bournemouth, has successfully passed his medical ahead of his much-anticipated transfer to PSG, according to Le Parisien.

Meanwhile, Gianluigi Donnarumma's tenure at the club appears to be nearing an end, with discussions about his future intensifying as Manchester United and Chelsea show interest. PSG have been proactive in placing him on the transfer market, seeking a €30 million fee rather than risk losing him for free next year.

With Chevalier sealing his move, attention shifts to ensuring squad depth and quality, as PSG have solidified their goalkeeping position amidst looming decisions regarding Donnarumma. The squad's morale remains high, with Chevalier eager to integrate quickly, highlighting his previous connections with multiple players and staff members at PSG, smoothing his transition.
