Overview

• PSG have made clear they will sanction Donnarumma’s sale this summer after extension talks stalled over a pay structure heavy on performance bonuses.
• Negotiations to sign Lucas Chevalier from Lille are at an advanced stage, with PSG preparing a fee in the region of €40 million for the Ligue 1 Goalkeeper of the Year.
• Donnarumma’s agents are fielding approaches from Galatasaray—which is readying a formal offer—and Premier League clubs Chelsea, Manchester United and Manchester City.
• The decision reflects PSG’s post–Mbappé policy to recoup value on star players before contracts expire rather than risk free departures.
• Donnarumma’s profile and market value were heightened by his key role in PSG’s first UEFA Champions League title in May, prompting widespread transfer interest.
