Keylor Navas has revealed that he has no intention of sharing his starting spot at Paris Saint-Germain with Gianluigi Donnarumma next season.
The 35-year-old Costa Rican shot stopper has only made 18 Ligue 1 and three Champions League appearances this season, sharing the starting spot with the former Milan man, who joined on a free transfer last summer. It’s been a strange dynamic in the French capital, with neither goalkeeper getting to play more than a handful of consecutive games.
Speaking to Canal+, Navas discussed his future following Donnarumma’s arrival in Paris.
“I want to play all the time, I won’t do another year like this. Right now I’m happy in Paris, but for the future many things will have to be considered.”
Navas, who returned to the starting spot in PSG’s 3-0 win over Angers last night, then touched on his relationship with the Italian goalkeeper.
“I can’t think of living a situation like the one we’ve had this year. I have a good relationship with Donnarumma, but I always want to play and be on the pitch every game. For the future we will have to consider many things.”
Things have not been easy for Donnarumma following his arrival last summer. The 23-year-old Italian has made a number of high profile errors and his confidence has seemingly plummeted, leaving him looking more dejected than ever before.
Whilst Milan fans are revelling in his unfortunate start, fans of the Italian national team are concerned that their number one is having a tough time.
