Donnarumma says goodbye to PSG and his future could be at Manchester City
Gianluigi Donnarumma could join the Premier League, although it would require the departure of Ederson Moraes
Gianluigi Donnarumma could become a new Manchester City player, but it would only happen with the departure of Brazilian goalkeeper Ederson.
After PSG decided not to count on More with the Italian goalkeeper, Donnarumma has several clubs in the Premier League interested, according to reports.
For his part, Ederson still has one year left on his contract, but it would seem that City are looking for his exit after several years of being the subject of transfer rumors.
The Italian, last year's Champions League winner who was key with his saves, has been left out of the European Super Cup that they play this Wednesday against Tottenham Hotspur and may not play for PSG again.
For City to be able to carry out the Donnarumma operation, it is essential that Ederson leaves first, because the English club has already spent 31 million in this market on James Trafford, who had arrived as competition for the Brazilian from Burnley.
Luis Enrique accepts he doesn't want Donnarumma
Luis Enrique explained in a press conference prior to the European Super Cup that he respects Donnarumma, but they are looking for a "different profile" of goalkeeper for next season.
The different profile is Lucas Chevalier, the French goalkeeper who has just signed with PSG for five seasons.
"We are trying to find the best solution. It is a difficult decision and I only have the best words for Donnarumma. He is one of the best goalkeepers in the world and a great person, but we are looking for a different profile," said Luis Enrique.
Gianluigi Donnarumma published a letter on Tuesday expressing his affection for the fans, but acknowledged being hurt by how the situation arose and being left out of the club after winning the Champions League last season.
"I hope to have the opportunity to look at the fans at the Parc des Princes one more time and say goodbye properly. If it doesn't happen, I want you to know that your support and affection mean the world to me and I will never forget it," Donnarumma said in a statement.
There are two weeks left in the transfer window and City could make a big final move in their goal.
