The atmosphere is reaching out in the PSG cages: Gianluigi Donnarumma did not appreciate the last decision of the club, and that could leave traces.
He would have preferred a completely different scenario. Pillar of the European PSG route last season,
Gianluigi Donnarumma does not hide his annoyance after being informed of the imminent arrival of a new goalkeeper. The Parisian club has decided to bet big on a direct competitor, and the message seems clear: nothing will be guaranteed to the Italian this season. A situation which, according to RMC Sportwould have strongly annoyed the main interested party.
Donnarumma upset by the arrival of Lucas Chevalier
But looking at it, nothing new under the Parisian sun. Donnarumma officially remains the number one, and no radical decision seems to have been made. He did not express a clear desire for the start, nor publicly challenged competition. His contract runs until 2026 and, at present, the trend remains at a status quo. What changes, on the other hand, is the configuration of the position, with a new face … and promising.
Lucas Chevalier, 23, will leave Lille against a check estimated at 40 million euros. A strong investment on the part of PSG, which wants to avoid errors in the management of its guards. The problem is that in Paris, the duels for two have never really worked. From Trapp – Areola to Navas – Donnarumma, rotation has often generated more tension than stability.
A fragile balance to manage for Luis Enrique
Luis Enrique will now have to decide: install a clear hierarchy or maintain a competitive vagueness? The preparation could give clues, but the spotlights will be on the slightest choice. Donnarumma, despite his moods, has the means to remain the holder … provided that the performances are chaining.
If Chevalier quickly won, the question of a Donnarumma departure could arise more seriously. Manchester United and Chelsea remain in ambush. But for the moment, PSG is advancing in unstable balance, with two numbers one in the same cage.
