PSG takes a big step forward for Lucas Chevalier

 

Gianluigi Donnarumma 's contract situation at Paris Saint-Germain remains unclear . The Italian international, who is under contract until June 2026, has yet to make any progress in talks regarding a contract extension, despite reassuring statements from his entourage in recent months. Since the end of the Club World Cup, no movement has been observed between the two parties. Internally, there are signs that the Parisian club is seriously considering a change in this key position, especially since Donnarumma himself privately revealed, even before the end of the European season, that a departure this summer was not out of the question. While his starting spot is not officially in question, PSG's intentions to recruit Lucas Chevalier speak volumes about the uncertainties surrounding his future and, above all, the negotiations on hold.

This morning, according to our information, Galatasaray intensified its contacts in an attempt to attract Donnarumma to Turkey . The Istanbul club, ambitious on the transfer market and qualified for the Champions League, dreams of a coup with the European champion goalkeeper. However, such an operation remains complex financially and will depend mainly on the movements of PSG and the evolution of the Chevalier file. Furthermore, a persistent rumor in England evokes the interest of Chelsea, in search of stability in the goalkeeping position after a disappointing season in this regard. The London club is closely monitoring the situation of the Italian goalkeeper, without having made a concrete offer for the moment. Donnarumma, at 26, remains a sure value on the European market, but his immediate future will largely depend on the strategic choices of PSG in the coming weeks.

Lucas Chevalier is getting closer

According to information from L'Équipe , Paris-Saint-Germain has taken a new step in its efforts to recruit Lucas Chevalier, the young LOSC goalkeeper. The 23-year-old goalkeeper, who has been followed for a long time, has reached an agreement in principle with the capital club on a five-year contract. Discussions between the two parties, which began several days ago, have progressed quickly, and now only details remain to be resolved between the player and PSG. This Parisian initiative should logically open formal negotiations with LOSC, who, according to L'Équipe , will not sell their goalkeeper for less than 40 million euros. Lille president Olivier Létang, known for his firmness in negotiations, is awaiting a firm offer, while Paris has already included this amount in its budgetary considerations. The northern club is already anticipating this departure and is exploring avenues abroad to ensure Chevalier's succession.

Still according to L'Équipe , this concrete progress from PSG in the Lucas Chevalier case could be interpreted as a strong signal regarding the uncertain future of Gianluigi Donnarumma. With his contract expiring in 2026, the Italian goalkeeper has still not renewed, and no progress has been made since the Club World Cup. Privately, Donnarumma has reportedly already mentioned a possible departure, despite a more reassuring public discourse. Clubs like Manchester United and Manchester City, already interested in June, remain attentive to the situation of the European champion. PSG wants to first secure Chevalier's arrival before officially opening the door to a transfer for Donnarumma, hinting at a possible change in the hierarchy in Parisian goals.
