Football Transfer Rumours: Donnarumma to Leave PSG … for Manchester United?
Today’s transfer gossip is turning heads.
Gianluigi Donnarumma, widely regarded as the top goalkeeper globally, is currently with Paris Saint-Germain, the reigning Champions League victors. PSG’s recent acquisition of Lucas Chevalier from Lille, a talented goalkeeper in his own right, seemed like a strategic move to keep Donnarumma sharp. However, the latest buzz suggests Donnarumma might be on his way out of PSG, with Manchester United as a potential destination. It’s puzzling why a world-class keeper would consider joining a club that finished 15th in the Premier League, isn’t competing in Europe, and lacks serious title aspirations. The usual lure of money seems unlikely, given Donnarumma’s hefty €12m annual salary after taxes, and United’s recent financial woes. Yet, L’Équipe appears confident in these whispers, and we’re here to relay the message.
Meanwhile, Borussia Dortmund is on the hunt for wingers following Jamie Gittens’ move to Chelsea. Jadon Sancho’s name has resurfaced as a possible candidate. The English winger, who has already had two stints with Dortmund, the latest being a loan spell last January, might be making a permanent return. Manchester United is reportedly willing to let him go for a mere £20m, though any agreement would require Sancho to accept a significant pay reduction.
