Gianluigi Donnarumma’s future at PSG remains uncertain following the arrival of Lucas Chevalier. The 26-year-old goalkeeper is reportedly seeking a long-term move, with Manchester United, Manchester City, and Chelsea all keeping a close eye on the situation.
L’Équipe reports that Donnarumma has already reached an agreement with Manchester City and even held direct talks with Pep Guardiola. Adding another layer of intrigue, Fabrizio Romano noted that Galatasaray are showing interest in Ederson, a move that could potentially clear the path for Donnarumma’s switch to the Etihad.
Chelsea and Manchester United, according to RMC Sport, have also made early approaches, though discussions are still in their initial stages. Manchester City, however, are widely regarded as the frontrunners as the summer transfer window enters its final stretch.
Could PSG star force a Man City player to leave?

Manchester Evening News’ Tyrone Marshall reports that James Trafford could leave Manchester City as early as next summer if Gianluigi Donnarumma is signed.

In his latest column for CaughtOffside, journalist Alfredo Pedulla revealed the latest regarding Manchester City’s interest in Gianluigi Donnarumma. Moreover, Pedulla notes that manager Pep Guardiola has his heart set on the Italian, whether he gets him this summer or as a free agent next year.
“Guardiola wants Donnarumma even if it means waiting to get him on a free transfer, moving before the competitors,” Pedulla wrote. “In these last two weeks of the summer transfer window, the goal is to find a solution that benefits both sides, including PSG, who would save on his huge wages, knowing that in just a few months, they’d earn nothing from a free transfer.”
