Gianluigi Donnarumma has confirmed his exit from Paris Saint‑Germain, sharing a heartfelt message with fans. He expressed disappointment, explaining that “someone decided” he could no longer be part of the squad, and said he hopes to one day look supporters in the eye and say goodbye properly at the Parc des Princes. He thanked teammates and fans for the privilege of his time in Paris.
Relationship with PSG Cracks, New No. 1 Installed
Despite playing a pivotal role in PSG’s Champions League triumph, Donnarumma has been left out of the squad for the UEFA Super Cup. Manager Luis Enrique took full responsibility, saying he wanted a different goalkeeper profile and that it was a difficult but necessary decision.
PSG have already secured Lucas Chevalier from Lille in a deal totalling around €40 million up front, plus potential add‑ons of €15 million. He is being fast‑tracked as the club’s new first‑choice keeper.
Agent Threatens Legal Action over Club Treatment
Donnarumma’s agent, Enzo Raiola, has hit back strongly. He condemned the club’s handling of his client, calling it a “huge lack of respect” after Donnarumma accepted reduced terms originally out of respect for PSG and its fans. Raiola warned that they are considering legal action over the player’s treatment, including how his image was tarnished by the decision to sideline him.
Premier League Interest Intensifies
With his split from PSG all but certain, Donnarumma has attracted interest from several Premier League clubs. Manchester City currently lead the race, with personal terms reportedly agreed, though PSG’s €50 million asking price remains a major hurdle. Manchester United and Chelsea have also been linked, though interest level varies.
Pep Guardiola’s side face one roadblock: Ederson may be leaving for Galatasaray, and City’s investment in James Trafford this summer could complicate Donnarumma’s role.
