Chelsea, Man Utd Get Boost After PSG Make Stunning Decision on Star Player

Yahoo4 days ago
PSG are facing growing uncertainty at goalkeeper, with Lucas Chevalier emerging as a possible long-term solution. Gianluigi Donnarumma is still under contract through 2026, but talks about extending his deal have stalled, and no new agreement seems near.
Meanwhile, Manchester United are considering their options in goal, and Donnarumma is reportedly one of the candidates.
According to a previous report from Fabrice Hawkins of RMC Sport, Donnarumma remains at PSG, but his agents are exploring potential moves. Manchester United, Manchester City, Galatasaray, and several Saudi clubs have all expressed interest.
For now, Donnarumma is committed to PSG and isn't pushing for a transfer—unless the right opportunity arises. Internally, he could still compete with Chevalier for the starting spot, with Luis Enrique expected to make the final decision, Hawkins adds.
PSG are ready to end the Gianluigi Donnarumma eraOn Friday, RMC Sport reported that Donnarumma was informed by his management of Chevalier's upcoming arrival. Moreover, the Chevalier case, a priority for PSG's management, is progressing well, per the report.
Negotiations with Lille have accelerated in recent days, with both parties agreeing to the idea of a transfer this summer. A five-year contract is already on the table for the French goalkeeper. PSG continue to discuss with Lille a deal around €40 million excluding bonuses. Furthermore, confidence is high on both sides regarding the feasibility of the transfer.
Now clearly informed about the situation surrounding the reported arrival of Chevalier, Donnarumma knows what to expect. He has two choices: leave this summer — which PSG would welcome — or stay, which could lead to some tensions this season.
In Luis Enrique's mind, Chevalier is expected to become PSG's number one goalkeeper upon his arrival. But if Donnarumma decides to stay, he will not be sidelined, given his history, performance last season, and what he represents in the locker room. This could therefore create some uncertainty in a more strategic position.
Recently, journalist Duncan Castles reported that Chevalier is set to be PSG's starting goalkeeper. The Parisians want Gianluigi Donnarumma to leave this summer after the Italy international declined a contract extension, with interest coming from Inter Milan, Manchester United, and Chelsea.

Update On Tottenham Hotspur And Their Pursuit Of This Atletico Madrid Ace: Good Option For Frank?

In a recent report, Fichajes offered an update on Tottenham Hotspur and their pursuit of Atletico Madrid ace Conor Gallagher this summer. It is understood that Spurs are prepared to launch a €50m move to sign the English midfielder this summer. Gallagher's Decent Form In La Liga The 25-year-old enjoyed a good campaign at the Wanda Metropolitano recently after he produced a series of eye-catching displays at the heart of Diego Simeone's midfield. Gallagher found the back of the net four times and earned six assists in 50 appearances for Atletico Madrid last season in all competitions. The English talent offered decent protection for his teammates at the back as he made 45 tackles, 23 blocks and 20 interceptions in La Liga. He was even tidy when distributing possession from midfield, based on his pass completion rate of 85% in the top tier of Spanish football (stats via Gallagher's current contract at the Spanish club will run out in the summer of 2029. Thus, Spurs would have to make a convincing offer if they want to get a deal done for him. MADRID, SPAIN – MARCH 16: Conor Gallagher of Atletico de Madrid reacts during the La Liga EA Sports match between Atletico de Madrid and FC Barcelona at Riyadh Air Metropolitano on March 16, 2025 in Madrid, Spain. (Photo by Florencia) Is Gallagher A Good Option For Tottenham Hotspur Boss Thomas Frank? Gallagher is a solid tackler of the ball and can sense the danger well to make some important interceptions for his team at the centre of the park. He doesn't mind putting his foot through the ball when the opposition are on the front foot and is a good passer of the ball as well. The English talent can even chip in by scoring and creating his fair share of goals from midfield. He has got plenty of experience in the Premier League and is well-equipped to make an immediate impact at the North London club. Gallagher would bring more energy and dynamism to Tottenham boss Thomas Frank's midfield. He is more than capable of securing a regular first-team spot at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium next season. At 25, Gallagher has his best years ahead of him, which makes him a good option for Spurs to consider in this transfer window. Therefore, it makes sense for Frank to try everything in his power to lure him to North London ahead of the new Premier League campaign.

Louisiana-Monroe coach Bryant Vincent named as school's interim athletic director

Louisiana-Monroe football coach Bryant Vincent is now the school's interim athletic director. Vincent was placed in charge of the school's athletic department on Tuesday following John Hartwell's resignation on Monday. Vincent, who is entering just his second season at ULM, will continue to coach the football team as the interim AD in a unique situation. No other head coach at the FBS level also serves as his school's athletic director. 'I am grateful to Bryant for stepping up to serve as the interim AD,' ULM president Carrie Castille said in a statement. 'Not only is Bryant a leader, but he builds teams and communities. Bryant has the support of the associate ADs and will be working closely with them to ensure he can serve both roles and win games. He has already gained the support of this community as a head coach, and I hope that everyone will join me in rallying around him to support ULM athletics.' According to Hartwell resigned over budget issues. The school has one of the smallest athletic department budgets among those that compete at the top level of college football and there could be more cuts coming to that budget. The school said Monday that Hartwell "will be pursuing other professional opportunities." Hartwell hired Vincent after the 2023 season. Vincent, who was the interim coach at UAB in 2022, was passed over for the permanent job with the Blazers and moved to Monroe, where the team had its best season since 2019. ULM was a win away from the school's first bowl game since 2012 halfway through the 2024 season, but ended the year on a six-game losing streak.
