Manchester City Begins Talks with PSG for Gianluigi Donnarumma

Manchester City have initiated contact with Paris Saint-Germain regarding goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma, who is expected to leave PSG after failing to agree on a contract renewal. Donnarumma, 26, has been omitted from PSG's squad following the signing of Lucas Chevalier and PSG's intent to part ways with him, making Manchester City a potential destination, especially if Ederson departs. City view Donnarumma as a long-term investment and a way to future-proof the goalkeeper position, with the player reportedly keen on a move and highly regarded by Pep Guardiola. Meanwhile, Manchester United are also strongly interested in Donnarumma amid plans to bolster their squad, but face financial and squad clearance challenges before pursuing the signing. Chelsea has been mentioned as another interested party, though Manchester United are considered the most interested club in the Premier League for Donnarumma, who is currently in his final contract year at PSG. Both Manchester clubs are monitoring the situation closely as Donnarumma has not formally received offers but is expected to leave PSG soon.
