Gianluigi Donnarumma, PSG now warns suitors
The great performance in the Champions League in the double round against’Aston Villa and, more generally, an increasingly convincing performance match after match, seem to have led PSG to change its mind about Gianluigi Donnarumma, whose sale in the summer soccer market session no longer seems to be as close as it seemed until a few weeks ago.
For Gigio there remains the knot of contract renewal, a’transaction that will have to be discussed soon given that the current agreement that binds the former AC Milan player to the Parisian club expires in June 2026 and the French champions are unlikely to let the national team goalkeeper go at zero, on expiry. In recent weeks, however, there has been renewed talk of a possible extension of the deal, with suitors now having to speed up to “defuse” the negotiation.
Two Italian clubs, Juventus and Inter, are also at the window: both looking for a relatively young goalkeeper (Donnarumma has been in the big league for a long time, but in fact he is still 26 years old), the two clubs have repeatedly asked Team Raiola, the team of attorneys who have picked up the legacy of the late Mino Raiola, who passed away in 2022,
.
What is certain is that, now, Donnarumma has conquered France: the headlines in the transalpine newspapers after the narrow defeat that nonetheless guaranteed PSG access to the Champions League semifinals are eloquent, and the 1999-born goalkeeper is increasingly the leader of a locker room that now believes in the European feat, hitherto taboo despite the fact that such top stars as Neymar, Leo Messi and Kylian Mbappé have passed through Paris. Gigio’s future, therefore, is all but a foregone conclusion as is not the return to Italy ventilated in recent months.
