Luis Enrique tempted to drop Gianluigi Donnarumma

According to a report by L’Équipe, Luis Enrique is tempted to drop Gianluigi Donnarumma (25) in favour of his competition after a troubled showing in the 2-0 defeat to Arsenal.

Donnarumma had a notably poor performance on Tuesday evening when PSG travelled to the Emirates Stadium for their Champions League tie. The Italian goalkeeper did not cover himself in glory and was at fault for the two goals both of which came from Arsenal set-pieces.

Luis Enrique’s preference for three goalkeepers

The arrival of Matvei Safanov (25) over the summer has provided some competition while Luis Enrique’s preference for a three-man rotation at the position meant that Arnau Tenas (23) remained at the club over the summer.

Whether Luis Enrique will drop Donnarumma remains to be seen, but doubts are building in the capital, and L’Équipe reports that contract talks between the club and player over a contract extension beyond his 2026 end date have been slow to materialise.
