Transfer news – Is Safonov leaving PSG? The answer is in | OneFootball

Matvey Safonov, the 26-year-old Russian goalkeeper who joined Paris Saint-Germain in the summer of 2024 from Krasnodar with a contract until 2029, has been stuck in a number 2 role behind Gianluigi Donnarumma, and then Lucas Chevalier (24 years old). This has fueled some transfer rumors during this window. L’Equipe mentions one today.

This is still just a rumor, since it comes from the media, but it’s nonetheless a significant chill on rumors that have never been confirmed. We remain cautious, of course. Only concrete facts can provide certainty. And this denial comes, coincidentally, only after a strong performance and renewed talk of possible competition.

This is a situation to watch, with Chevalier and Safonov both giving their all to play. After that, the staff will make their choices. It remains to be seen how ready each is to face this competition. It’s difficult to keep two top-level goalkeepers over the long term, as sharing the role is complicated. But, for now, no departure is on the horizon.
