Eager to reorganize its goalkeeping sector next summer, Paris Saint-Germain has made Lucas Chevalier a priority. But the Premier League, also interested, is upping the stakes.
The goalkeeper position is particularly challenging at Paris Saint-Germain. Over the last few years, the various coaches who have succeeded each other have all come up against competition that is difficult to maintain among the last ramparts. This season again, three players are likely to claim a place as a starter. For Luis Enrique, it is difficult to find the right and irremovable goalkeeper.
The performances of Gianluigi Donnaruma, although number 1 in the hierarchy, often leave something to be desired. Those of Matvey Safonov do not currently guarantee peace in front of the goals and Arnau Tenas is no longer considered in the equation at all. Questions that push management to think about a new alternative: yet another recruitment for this position. This time, it is Lucas Chevalier who is targeted. However, PSG will have to face tough competition from the Premier League, which is causing the price to skyrocket.
Lucas Chevalier at PSG or in England?
According to recent information from Loïc Tanzi for L'Equipe, PSG is indeed interested in Lucas Chevalier. The LOSC goalkeeper has become an essential part of Bruno Genesio's training and discovered the France A team during the last gathering of the Blues. Enough to give him a nice rating, to the great dismay of Paris Saint-Germain. Estimated today at 30 million euros by the specialist site Transfermarkt, it could well cost Parisian management much more. In question, the presence of Premier League clubs in the race.
-Several English clubs, such as Tottenham, Manchester United and Chelsea, are monitoring Lucas Chevalier. Under contract until June 2027, the Lille goalkeeper could well cost much more than the estimated 30ME. As for PSG, the management does not want to miss any steps: there will be no offer transmitted to the Lille leaders as long as Gianluigi Donnarumma has not left. Fortunately for the Parisians, Inter Milan is particularly interested in the profile of the former AC Milan man.
