Report – Inter Milan, Man United & Chelsea Sound Out Move For PSG Star

Yahoo15 hours ago
Inter Milan, Man United, and Chelsea have all reportedly sounded out a move for Paris Saint-Germain keeper Gianluigi Donnarumma.
This according to ESPN, via FCInterNews. They report that all three clubs have been in contact with the 26-year-old's agent Enzo Raiola.
Italian international goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma is under contract with Paris Saint-Germain until the end of next June.
However, contract extension talks between the 26-year-old and the reigning Champions League holders haven't taken off.
The Corriere della Sera report that Donnarumma has rejected PSG's most recent offer for an extension. He is still holding out for a higher fee.
Therefore, it is looking as though the Parisians face a choice: cash in on Donnarumma now, or lose him on a free transfer next summer.
Furthermore, the fact that PSG are set to sign Lille keeper Lucas Chevallier is a clear sign that they are prepared for the loss of Donnarumma.

Considering that PSG have signed Chevallier, their plan seems clear.
The Parisians have little intention of having two keepers fight for the starting spot. They've tried that with Kevin Trapp and Alphonse Areola, with Areoal and Gianluigi Buffon, and with Keylor Navas and Donnarumma himself.
Therefore, it seems very clear that PSG want to sell Donnarumma this summer.
And according to ESPN, three clubs have taken an interest so far.
The broadcaster report that all of Inter Milan, Manchester United, and Chelsea have contacted the Italian international's agent Enzo Raiola.

Liverpool build an ALL-CONQUERING attack by signing Bradley Barcola

Liverpool want to win everything in sight when they start a season. It's a mentality that often leads to criticism from fans of rival teams when the Reds fail to win a quadruple - which is an achievement that no one in England has ever been able to win before. 🔴 Shop the LFC 2025/26 adidas home range 🚨2025/26 LFC x adidas range🚨 LFC x adidas Shop the away range TODAY LFC x adidas Shop the home range today! LFC x adidas Shop the goalkeeper range today LFC x adidas Shop the new adidas range today! But regardless, the team's focus is constantly on success and while it often sets them up for failure, the club has managed to become the most successful team in England based on major trophies. 🔴 Furthermore, in the 2021/22 season, the Reds become the closest team in English football history to achieving the quadruple - winning the FA Cup and the EFL Cup, alongside missing out on the Premier League by one point and losing the Champions League final 1-0 to Real Madrid. In order to succeed on all fronts, you need an all-conquering attack and Liverpool are on the brink. Barcola would complete Liverpool's fluid attack Of course, I'm in no way trying to set the team up for failure here by suggesting that the quadruple would be on if Bradley Barcola signs, but it would be a seriously dangerous forward line if he did. He was really influential in Paris Saint Germain's Champions League winning side last season and the European Cup trophy was just one of three Luis Enrique's team won across all competitions. Including the Club World Cup games added on during the summer, he had 21 goals and 21 assists in 64 appearances, which is nothing short of remarkable for a 22-year-old winger. He's generational. Which is why Liverpool fans were incredibly excited by the rumours that Barcola is on Liverpool's shortlist of dream signings, if Alexander Isak cannot be signed, alongside Rodrygo at Real Madrid. Based on last season's form at least, it doesn't feel a stretch to call him a world class asset and he's so young that he could play a pivotal role in the team over the next decade, if we keep hold of him. You might be thinking, how come Liverpool are considering a left-winger, since we have Cody Gakpo and Rio Ngumoha has been earmarked for a breakout campaign this season? Well, to put it simply, it's all about Arne Slot's decision to change things stylistically to become a more well-rounded outfit. Over at PSG where Barcola would be coming from, we've seen an attacking line that is unlike anything we've really seen before. Wingers don't really exist since each member of the front three will move into space when it's available. Tracking your man is impossible. They're fluid in a sense. And Florian Wirtz inadvertently suggested that Liverpool could start using PSG's blueprint this season when he spoke in his first interview with the media as a Red after a pre-season game. He said: "I think I am a player who needs freedom on the pitch and the manager gives it to me. Of course, I have to respect the position and the players around me, but I try to give my best on the pitch and find the right places. I have the freedom for this." In a sense, he isn't really a No. 10 at all and even though he can play at left-wing or as a centre-forward, he might feature in each of those roles temporarily throughout a 90-minute appearance. Arne Slot isn't building a rigid team, he's purposefully trying to create chaos. We've already seen it throughout pre-season, with Hugo Ekitike's assist against Athletic Club coming when the Frenchman forayed down the left-hand side, with Gakpo switching with him to move into a more central zone. Barcola would only be an extension of that. Last season he played 223 minutes on the right-hand side of the pitch, delivering one goal and three assists. He'd be able to cover Mohamed Salah at times if the Egyptian need to be our targetman and Jeremie Frimpong can play everywhere. So while Isak would certainly sure-up the team in a conventional sense, having three wingers and two strikers to choose from, Barcola would add more carnage and unpredictability to the side. As part of PSG's team, they managed to conquer football, winning Ligue 1, the Champions League and the Coupe de France. If he became a Liverpool player - for a substantially lower fee than Isak - then rival teams would have no idea how to defend against us, a tried and tested winning strategy.

Mohamed Salah challenges Uefa response to Palestinian footballer's death in Gaza

Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah has called out Uefa for not saying how a footballer known as the 'Palestinian Pele' died in its tribute to him. The Palestinian Football Association (PFA) said on Wednesday that Suleiman Al-Obeid, 41, died in an Israeli attack in Gaza. In an X post, European football association Uefa said he was 'a talent who gave hope to countless children, even in the darkest of times'. Responding to this, Egyptian star Salah said: 'Can you tell us how he died, where, and why?' Among those who praised his response was former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, who replied: 'Well said Mo!' Salah, 33, who has more than 19 million X followers, previously called for the massacres in the conflict to stop and for aid to be allowed into Gaza. In a video posted on Instagram in October 2023, he said: 'It is not always easy to speak in times like this. There has been too much violence and too much heartbreak and brutality. 'The escalations in the recent weeks is unbearable to witness. All lives are sacred and must be protected. The massacres need to stop. Families are being torn apart.' The PFA said that Al-Obeid, who was married with two sons and three daughters, made 24 appearances for the national team, scoring twice. He was nicknamed the 'Palestinian Pele', the PFA said. The Israel Defence Forces (IDF) has been approached for comment.

OM: Aubameyang already finds his scoring touch again

Aubameyang On Saturday evening, in OM's final pre-season match, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang bagged a brace against Aston Villa. With his two goals against Aston Villa, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was the standout performer in this last warm-up game for OM at the Vélodrome. Marseille sealed a convincing 3-1 victory. This win sets the tone for the Phocéens ahead of the Ligue 1 opener, scheduled in Rennes in a week's time. Coming off the bench at the hour mark, Aubameyang completely changed the dynamic of the match, netting a decisive brace. His first goal, celebrated with a spectacular somersault, came from a pinpoint pass by Murillo down the left flank (77'). Just three minutes later, following a superb move orchestrated by Mason Greenwood, Aubameyang coolly slotted the ball home in a tight space to seal the win (80', 3-1).
