Gianluigi Donnarumma is prioritising to remain at PSG despite intense speculation surrounding his future, as Manchester City and Manchester United are keen.
According to Caught Offside, Manchester United and Manchester City could suffer a blow in their pursuit of Gianluigi Donnarumma. The Italian international is prioritising a stay at PSG despite intense speculation surrounding his future, but he remains intent on working out a new agreement.
Gianluigi Donnarumma was instrumental in PSG’s treble-winning season under Luis Enrique, but there’s intense speculation surrounding his future. The Italian international is in the final year of his deal in Paris, and so far, he has failed to agree on fresh terms offered by the club.
Donnarumma remains one of the coveted goalkeeping names in the world, and naturally, a host of top teams are chasing his signature. Galatasaray have made an offer to sign the Italian, although the 26-year-old PSG star is still undecided on where he might join next.
The stopper is prioritising PSG stay as things stand, and is seemingly keen to work out a new agreement with the club to continue as their No.1. Meanwhile, the Parisians have already earmarked LOSC Lille stopper Lucas Chevalier as his replacement should the Italian leave the club this summer.
Meanwhile, should things go south between Donnarumma and PSG, there are some key sides from the Premier League waiting in the wings to sign him. Apart from Galatasaray, Manchester United and Manchester City are keen, but any deal with either of those teams seems complicated.
Manchester Clubs keen on Gianluigi Donnarumma
Manchester United are ready to sell Andre Onana, and have earmarked a few names, including Diogo Costa, Emiliano Martinez and now Donnarumma. They are likely to make a move for a new No.1, as long as they can offload the Cameroonian, which is complicated at this point, given an injury he picked up ahead of pre-season.
As for Manchester City, they have already signed James Trafford from Burnley, with credible reports stating they are ready to keep Ederson Moraes. Hence, a move for Donnarumma may not materialise for Pep Guardiola’s side, as the coming period will make it clear what the keeper wants with his future.
