Fabrizio Romano Offers Transfer Update on Chelsea, Man Utd Target's Future at PSG
It looks like the Premier League could be the next stop for PSG goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma, with Manchester United emerging as a strong contender. Chelsea and Manchester City are also showing interest in the Italian keeper. According to RMC Sport's Fabrice Hawkins, Donnarumma remains with PSG, but his camp is actively exploring potential destinations. Manchester United, Manchester City, Galatasaray, and clubs from Saudi Arabia have all communicated interest. Donnarumma is still committed to PSG and would only entertain a move if the right project came along. Inside the club, there's still a scenario where he competes with Lucas Chevalier for the No. 1 spot, with Luis Enrique expected to make the final decision, per Hawkins. PSG standout mulling over decision on his futureTransfer expert Fabrizio Romano reported on Thursday that Donnarumma and his team haven't ruled out staying at PSG. Even though his contract runs through June 2026 and Lucas Chevalier is on the way, Donnarumma could stay and compete for the starting spot like he did with Keylor Navas. He'll likely decide on his future in the coming months. Sports Zone recently reported that Manchester United have reached out to PSG about Donnarumma. It looks very unlikely that Donnarumma and PSG will come to an agreement. The report also mentions that Al-Ittihad and Galatasaray are offering him nearly €20 million a year, while Chelsea and Manchester City have shown interest as well. At the same time, Corriere dello Sport said Manchester United have become the frontrunner to sign Donnarumma, with recent talks happening between his representatives and the club.

Achraf Hakimi: PSG makes a tough decision
Achraf Hakimi and Luis Enrique After enduring a grueling season with PSG, Achraf Hakimi will not have a backup this summer. That is the decision made by the French capital club. After a remarkable campaign that included lifting the Champions League trophy, PSG has no intention of overhauling its squad. Only a few adjustments are expected. The main uncertainty revolves around the future of Gigio Donnarumma, and possibly the arrival of Lucas Chevalier. Moroccan international Achraf Hakimi has no plans to leave, as he is under contract until 2029. With 55 matches played (11 goals, 16 assists), the Moroccan is one of the most heavily relied-upon players in the squad—and for good reason. He has no natural replacement. Luis Campos, the club's sporting director, had planned to find him a player who could give him a breather, but according to Le Parisien, Luis Enrique refused. With Warren Zaïre-Emery and Joao Neves both able to fill in at right-back, the Spanish manager feels satisfied with his options.

Gianluigi Donnarumma: Key condition for PSG exit emerges amid Luis Enrique decision
Just when it seemed the Manchester United goalkeeping chase could end with either Emiliano Martinez or Senne Lammens signing, Gianluigi Donnarumma has forcefully entered the conversation. United, long-time admirers of Donnarumma, appear to have been handed a golden opportunity to bring him to Old Trafford. Over the weekend, The Peoples Person relayed reports that Paris Saint-Germain are considering selling the 26-year-old. The Italian stopper, whose deal at Parc des Princes expires next summer, has yet to agree to new terms and is reportedly disappointed with the current offer. In response to the contract standoff, the French giants are now pushing hard to sign LOSC Lille's Lucas Chevalier. Chevalier is a top keeper in his own right; even United were impressed by him, but they never turned their interest into a formal approach. His proposed switch to PSG could endanger Donnarumma's starting spot under Luis Enrique. One question now arises: Is the former AC Milan number one actively seeking a move? Donnarumma, PSG stance, Luis Enrique call Journalist Fabrice Hawkins has candidly unpacked the Italian international's situation. He admits: 'Gianluigi Donnarumma has not yet left, even though his agents are exploring the market to find him a new destination.' He adds, 'The Italian goalkeeper has options. Manchester United, Manchester City, Galatasaray, and Saudi clubs are interested. However, he remains attached to PSG and will only leave if a project fully suits him.' On whether PSG have decided on his exit, Hawkins says: 'Internally, the possibility of seeing Chevalier and Donnarumma compete, with Luis Enrique making the final decision, is not ruled out.' Donnarumma is weighing his options (convincing pitch wins) While Luis Enrique's call may be pivotal, United could yet sway Donnarumma with a compelling pitch. After enduring erratic goalkeeping from Andre Onana (and even Altay Bayindir) last season, United are in desperate need of a goalkeeping upgrade, and Donnarumma could well be that. With the Italian open to persuasion, the ball is firmly in INEOS' court. The transfer battle looks stiff. However, United could convince him by highlighting the central role he would play in Amorim's project, while also emphasising their ambition to win the league by 2028. That vision might convince Donnarumma to agitate for a move to the Theatre of Dreams, and with PSG having already landed another top keeper, they may prefer to cash in rather than risk losing him on a free.

PSG: Achraf Hakimi and his teammates have impressed Riyad Mahrez
Riyad Mahrez In a recent interview, Riyad Mahrez expressed his admiration for the European champions. The Algerian international sees the current PSG as reminiscent of his former Manchester City side. Recently, Riyad Mahrez was asked about PSG. Given the remarkable season Luis Enrique's team has had, football insiders have not hesitated to praise the Parisian club, and Riyad Mahrez was no exception. In an interview with Carré, the Algeria captain compared PSG to "his" Manchester City. "PSG reminds me of when we were at City, back in our era two or three years ago, when we played without a striker. When we played without a striker, we were... wow, you had to come and get us! They remind me of our old team. They bring intensity, they're technically sound. These guys are killers: they run everywhere. Then you have Ousmane on fire, and the other players around him who make the difference. You need a bit of everything... Luis Enrique is like Guardiola. Same school. I'm happy for them, honestly. It's a great team. Of course. There's no secret.", said the Algerian.
