Gianluigi Donnarumma’s future hangs in the balance – the Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper remains locked in a contract standoff with the club, with talks at an impasse. PSG have even started preparing for his potential exit, eyeing Lille’s Lucas Chevalier as a replacement with a €40 million valuation.
Speculation around Donnarumma’s next move shows no sign of slowing. Galatasaray, fresh from finalizing Victor Osimhen’s transfer, have made a lucrative salary offer to the Italian shot-stopper and are ready to negotiate a fee with PSG. However, while Donnarumma appreciates the Turkish club’s efforts, he’s opted to bide his time, holding out for better options.
A notable twist comes from Manchester City. Despite agreeing a deal with Burnley to recall goalkeeper James Trafford, City have inquired about Donnarumma’s availability and confirmed they’ll keep monitoring the situation. Pep Guardiola is a long-time admirer of the 1999-born keeper, and this "watching brief" suggests City could make a move before his contract expires.
Galatasaray, meanwhile, are exploring alternatives, including City’s Ederson. The Brazilian, whose contract is nearing its end and once missed out on a move to Napoli, is emerging as a target for other clubs.
Italian teams, which showed interest in Donnarumma in recent months, are now adopting a wait-and-see approach. Whether he stays at PSG to resolve the standoff, moves to a Premier League giant, or accepts Galatasaray’s big-money offer, the saga of Donnarumma’s next chapter is heating up.
