Cooled by the insufficient performances of Gianluigi Donnarumma, Paris Saint-Germain interrupted discussions concerning the extension of its goalkeeper. The Ile-de-France club anticipates a possible departure of the Italian next summer. But the coveted goalkeepers are already popular on the transfer market.
What if Gianluigi Donnarumma lived his last season at Paris Saint-Germain? The hypothesis cannot be excluded. Under contract until 2026, the 25-year-old goalkeeper was negotiating an extension in recent months, until discussions were interrupted. The Parisian leaders have put the matter on hold because of the disappointing performances of their last bastion in the Champions League. It is difficult to say whether the two parties plan to resume their exchanges.
Ideas for replacing Donnarumma
In any case, the situation will become uncomfortable for Paris Saint-Germain next summer given that Gianluigi Donnarumma, unless there is any change between now and then, will find himself one year from the end of his lease. This may be the time to push him out and recruit his successor. Despite the presence of Matvey Safonov and Arnau Tenas, the reigning French champion began to study tracks. This weekend, the Italian press reported an interest in Atalanta Bergamo goalkeeper Marco Carnesecchi (24), whose price could be around 50 million euros. Not enough to cool Paris Saint-Germain or Arsenal, also cited on this file.
A few weeks ago, the PSG Inside-Actus account also included the Dutchman Bart Verbruggen (22 years old, see main photo of the article) among the Parisian targets. But here again, a Premier League giant is announced on the road to the Ile-de-France club. The English press claims that Manchester United are interested in the Brighton goalkeeper. For the Red Devils, it would be a way to protect their backs in case André Onana continues to make a series of mistakes. Note that the former Anderlecht goalkeeper also appeals to Bayern Munich for the post-Manuel Neuer era.
