Donnarumma Joins Manchester City as Juventus Recasts Attack With Openda and Zhegrova on Deadline Day

A frantic finish underscored Serie A’s turn to loans with purchase clauses under tight finances.

Overview

  • Manchester City completed the signing of Gianluigi Donnarumma from Paris Saint‑Germain, with reports citing a €28 million fee plus bonuses and a five‑year deal worth about €15 million per season.
  • Juventus confirmed Loïs Openda’s arrival from RB Leipzig on a temporary deal with purchase conditions, with reports indicating a total outlay in the mid‑€40 million range if the option becomes an obligation.
  • Edon Zhegrova joined Juventus after medicals in Turin, with local reports pricing the transfer at about €14.3 million plus add‑ons and ancillary costs.
  • Juventus abandoned a months‑long pursuit of Randal Kolo Muani after PSG did not accept their proposal, then failed to land Jonathan Clauss when Nice rejected a loan, leaving a gap on the right flank.
  • The window closed with Italian clubs leaning on loans, options and staggered payments, while the Premier League’s heavy spending—highlighted by Liverpool’s record outlay—reshaped valuations across Europe.
