Manchester City are reportedly monitoring Gianluigi Donnarumma’s situation at Paris Saint-Germain, with growing uncertainty surrounding the Italian goalkeeper’s future at the club.
The 25-year-old remains under contract at PSG until the summer of 2026, but talks over a new deal have recently hit a standstill. According to reports, PSG are attempting to extend Donnarumma’s contract on reduced wages, incorporating performance-based bonuses as a significant part of the offer. However, the Italian international has not yet agreed to those terms, opening the door for top clubs across Europe to make their move.
City See Donnarumma as a Potential Successor to Ederson
Manchester City have now entered the picture, with the Premier League champions identifying Donnarumma as a potential long-term replacement for Ederson. The Brazilian keeper has been linked with a summer exit, amid growing interest from Saudi Arabian clubs.
While no official bid has been made, City are expected to step up their pursuit if Ederson departs in the coming weeks. Donnarumma, who joined PSG in 2021 after a high-profile exit from AC Milan, has remained a regular starter but has not fully convinced all critics in the French capital.
Chelsea and Manchester United Also Interested
Manchester United and Chelsea are also said to be keeping a close eye on the situation. Chelsea, in particular, are still searching for a consistent first-choice goalkeeper after rotating between Robert Sánchez and Đorđe Petrović last season. Manchester United could also enter the race if André Onana’s form doesn’t improve, or if they choose to bring in competition.
Bayern Munich are reportedly another club monitoring Donnarumma’s contract status as they explore future options between the sticks.
Donnarumma’s PSG Future in Doubt
Despite publicly stating his desire to stay in Paris, Donnarumma is now at a crossroads in his career. PSG’s reluctance to meet his current wage demands—combined with their interest in cutting costs—could force the Ligue 1 giants to consider selling him either this summer or next, rather than risk losing him for a lower fee or for free in 2026.
City, Chelsea, and United are all poised to make a move if PSG give the green light.
Manchester City’s interest in Gianluigi Donnarumma signals potential changes in their goalkeeping department. With PSG struggling to tie him down to a new contract, and top European clubs circling, this transfer saga could heat up quickly in the coming weeks.
