Gigio Donnarumma spent three PSG games on the bench in November, and if Luis Enrique continues rotating between the posts, the Italian goalkeeper could ask to leave the club in the summer, with Inter, Liverpool, Manchester City and Bayern Munich reportedly interested.
Gigio Donnarumma is no longer a regular starter at PSG, having spent three games on the bench in November, including a 1-0 loss against Bayern Munich.
It’s not a new situation for Donnarumma, who, during his first season in Paris, was alternated with Keylor Navas between the posts.
Luis Enrique’s PSG and Barcelona decisions could push Donnarumma to Inter or Liverpool
The Italy captain was unhappy and urged PSG to make a decision at the end of the season by picking him or Keylor Navas as the starting goalkeeper.
Matvey Safonov is challenging Donnarumma this time, and the Russia international has been picked against teams that press high, forcing the PSG team to involve the goalkeeper in the build-up.
Gazzetta notes that PSG coach Luis Enrique is accustomed to rotating goalkeepers, something he already did at Barcelona between 2014 and 2016 with Claudio Bravo and Marc-André ter Stegen.
At the end of the 2015-16 campaign, both goalkeepers asked to leave, so Barcelona picked ter Stegen and sent Bravo to Manchester City.
It seems unlikely that Luis Enrique will stop rotating goalkeepers in Paris this season, so Gigio may ask to leave in the summer. His contract expires in 2026, and the two parties are nowhere close to reaching an agreement.
According to Gazzetta, Inter, Manchester City, Liverpool, and Bayern Munich are interested in the Italy captain and are keeping a close eye on all the latest developments from Paris.
If he is upset that he’s not playing every game Liverpool is not the destination.
So is playing time was reduced, his value was reduced, his performance was reduced. The 23/24 season was probably his best in terms of time to give up a goal and clean sheets, but otherwise this move to PSG really didn’t improve him versus his time at AC Milan.
