Manchester City, Juventus Await PSG Standout to Make Major Decision Over Contract | OneFootball

PSG have a big call to make—and clubs like Manchester City are likely paying close attention: Is Gianluigi Donnarumma still their long-term solution in goal?

He’s under contract through 2026, but interest from top European sides is building. Since joining from AC Milan in 2021, Donnarumma has come through in big moments—making crucial saves and coming up big in penalty shootouts—but his time in Paris hasn’t been without hiccups.

There have been some high-profile errors, including the infamous mistake against Real Madrid in the 2022 Champions League, that still raise questions about his reliability under pressure.

Now, with PSG headed to the Champions League final, the spotlight is squarely on him again. A strong showing could solidify his place as the club’s No. 1. If not, and with his contract winding down, other clubs will be ready to make a move.

Football Italia reported on Saturday that Donnarumma’s contract is winding down. Still, despite interest from Manchester City, Bayern Munich, Juventus, and Inter Milan, he plans to meet with PSG first to discuss a new deal.

His current contract runs until June 2026, but PSG have offered him a new deal with a much lower salary than the €10 million per season he was earning after leaving Milan in 2021.

In his latest column for Ensemble PSG, Robin Bairner, the chief editor at Football Transfers, wrote about Donnarumma’s future and whether PSG should offer him a new contract.

“There’s a debate to be had about the No.1, although that’s for another day. Despite shaky shot-stopping statistics overall this season, [Donnarumma has] been statistically poorer than Matvey Safanov.

“For example, his Champions League performances suggest that he’s the perfect keeper for PSG. He’s shown a capacity to raise his level for the big games, which has been precious, even vital, to the team’s European progress. This should be enough to see him rewarded with a new deal.”
