‘It makes you think’ – Lucas Chevalier reveals Premier League temptation | OneFootball

Could Lucas Chevalier (23) be set for a move to the Premier League? The Lille OSC goalkeeper’s recent comments suggest he is at least tempted by the idea.

Chevalier was present at the UNFP end-of-season awards on Sunday. During the ceremony, he was named best goalkeeper in Ligue 1 for the 2024/25 season and was also included in the Ligue 1 team-of-the-year. This season, Lille are in the race to return to the UEFA Champions League and it is in this competition that the young shotstopper has particularly shone. His performances in the League Phase of the competition led to great clamour for him to be involved in the France set-up. He has since earned his first call-up from Didier Deschamps.

For several months, Chevalier has been linked with a move to Paris Saint-Germain. However, a move to the Parc des Princes is looking less likely given Gianluigi Donnarumma’s return to form. But that doesn’t mean that a summer move away from Lille isn’t off the cards entirely.

Speaking at the UNFP awards, Chevalier hinted that he would be interested in a move abroad. “The Premier League? It is the most attractive league. When you see Tottenham and Manchester United, who are struggling with crazy players [in their squads]… I have two years left on my contract, and you know the president (Olivier Létang) (laughs). I haven’t had any contacts, but it makes you think,” said the goalkeeper in a conference, transcribed by Julien Froment.
