Still in discussions with Gianluigi Donnarumma for an extension, Paris Saint-Germain seems to be closer to an agreement with its goalkeeper. Parisian leaders have every interest in getting along with the Italian insofar as their plan B, the Lille Lucas Chevalier, risks landing in England.
The situation of Gianluigi Donnarumma finally seems to unlock. In disagreement with his superiors, who only offer him a contract in line with their new policy, the Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper spoke this week a positive development in the discussions. “” Yes we advanceentrusted the Italian during the Club World Cup. My agent speaks with the club, I am focused on the match and the trophy, but we have no problem. I always give 100% for this club and the supporters, it's a club that gave me everything, playing for PSG is incredible. If the two parties are getting closer, no agreement is announced at the moment.

Paris Saint-Germain remains under pressure since its goalkeeper, necessarily coveted after his exploits in the Champions League, will soon enter the last year of his contract. Without extension, the capital's club would be almost forced to transfer it to avoid a free departure in 2026. This is why the European champion planned an alternative. In the event of Gianluigi Donnarumma, Paris Saint-Germain made Lucas Chevalier his priority. Except that the LOSC goalkeeper could spin before the Parisians made a final decision.
Knight interested Aston Villa
ESPN journalist Julien Laurens tells us that Aston Villa is thinking of recruiting the second goalkeeper of the French team. Even if Lille claims nearly 47 million euros, the Villans consider Lucas Chevalier as a potential successor to the Argentinian Emiliano Martinez, announced on departure. The Paris Saint-Germain track could therefore fly away, which would still put a little more pressure in exchanges with Gianluigi Donnarumma.
