Paris Saint-Germain<\/a> have reportedly agreed a deal for a new goalkeeper, leaving the future of Gianluigi Donnarumma up in the air – with Manchester United<\/a> and Manchester City<\/a> now poised to pounce.<\/p>\n

United are still hunting for stability between the sticks following a rough two-year spell from Andre Onana<\/a>, who has failed to impress since joining from Inter Milan<\/a>\u00a0for \u00a347.2million in 2023.<\/p>\n

Since his arrival, no Premier League<\/a> goalkeeper has committed more errors leading to goals across all competitions than Onana’s eight. His save percentage in 2024\u201325 was just 67.2 per cent – ranking 11th in the league.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile at City, Ederson<\/a>\u2019s long-term future has been questioned, and the club are set to re-sign James Trafford<\/a> from Burnley<\/a> for \u00a327m.<\/p>\n

Trafford is regarded as a bright talent who could provide competition or eventually succeed Ederson down the line.<\/p>\n

The 22-year-old came through City’s academy but never made a senior appearance for the first team before joining Burnley in 2023 for \u00a315m – nevertheless, City retained a buy-back option for their exciting talent.<\/p>\n

\"Man <\/p>\n

Man United and Man City are reportedly in the race to sign PSG’s Gianluigi Donnarumma<\/p>\n

\"Mail <\/p>\n

Mail Sport reported that United are willing to listen to offers of \u00a330million for Andre Onana<\/p>\n

\"City <\/p>\n

City are set to re-sign future star James Trafford, while Ederson could be out of the door soon<\/p>\n

According to\u00a0L\u2019Equipe<\/a>, PSG are closing in on signing Lille\u2019s promising shot-stopper Lucas Chevalier.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The 23-year-old is seen as a long-term project who could eventually start for the French capital club.<\/p>\n

The arrival of Chevalier could force Donnarumma to consider his options, with both United and City said to be in the race to sign him.<\/p>\n

Before sanctioning Donnarumma’s departure, it is believed that PSG want to secure the signing of Chevalier.<\/p>\n

Donnarumma enjoyed the most successful season of his career in 2024-25, registering 12 clean sheets as PSG marched to an imperious treble-winning campaign.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Italian shot-stopper is widely considered the frontrunner to win the Yashin Trophy for a second time – an award handed out to the best-performing goalkeeper in the world.<\/p>\n

It has not yet been disclosed what fee PSG would demand for Donnarumma, but it would not be surprising if clubs were forced to break the bank for him.<\/p>\n

Kepa Arrizabalaga remains the most expensive goalkeeper ever, after Chelsea signed him from Athletic Bilbao in 2018 for \u00a371.6m.<\/p>\n

The arrival of Lucas Chevalier from Lille could force Donnarumma to consider his options<\/p>\n

\"Donnarumma's <\/p>\n

Donnarumma’s deal expires next summer but he has made it clear that he wants to stay at PSG<\/p>\n

\"No <\/p>\n

No Premier League goalkeeper has committed more errors leading to goals across all competitions than Onana’s eight since he arrived at United<\/p>\n

\"Ederson <\/p>\n

Ederson has made 372 appearances and kept 168 clean sheets for City since joining for \u00a335m from Benfica in 2017<\/p>\n

\"Trafford <\/p>\n

Trafford is regarded as a bright talent who could provide competition or eventually succeed Ederson down the line<\/p>\n

Donnarumma’s deal expires in the summer of 2026, but he has made it clear that he wants to stay in Paris.<\/p>\n

\u2018My priority is to stay at PSG and sign a new deal,\u2019 he said last month. \u2018I don\u2019t think there will be any problems in the negotiations.\u2019<\/p>\n

Donnarumma began his career at\u00a0ASD Club Napoli’s youth system before moving to AC Milan, where he went on to make his\u00a0Serie A debut at 16 years old in 2015.<\/p>\n

He cemented himself as not only one of the most exciting young talents but one of the best goalkeepers in world football, before joining PSG as a free agent in the summer of 2021.<\/p>\n
