Reports suggest Gianluigi Donnarumma is eager to swap Paris for Manchester as he targets a move to Old Trafford.
United weigh goalkeeping options
**Manchester United**’s summer business might not be over just yet. Despite bringing in three major signings, rumours say Gianluigi Donnarumma could be next in line.
The Italian shot-stopper is reportedly keen on making Old Trafford his next home. He want to join Ruben Amorim’s squad this window. Man Utd’s current goalkeeping setup has faced its fair share of criticism. Andre Onana had a tough season. Meanwhile, Altay Bayindir is finding it hard to stake a strong claim for the number one jersey.
Donnarumma is on a £300k-a-week deal at PSG. Now, he is being linked with a potential £26m switch. Sources claim talkSPORT’s Anil Kandola received word late last week confirming the keeper’s desire to move to the PL.
The Italian rose to stardom at AC Milan. Now, a fresh challenge in England could be the perfect stage to regain his world-class status. In the meantime, PSG have singed Lille youngster Lucas Chevalier. So, it has only fueled rumours over the Italian’s future. The French champions are looking likely ready for life without him.
Donnarumma eyes Old Trafford move
The timing of this transfer could be very important for United. The PL opener against Arsenal just around the corner. So, it is important that Amorim lays down a marker in his first full season at the helm. Getting a keeper of Donnarumma’s quality in before the window shuts would be a show of intention.
His authority, reflexes, and mentality in big moments could provide Man Utd with stability. He will surely enhance their chances of playing in Europe next season.
While no formal talks have been confirmed for now. But, the belief is clear, if United decide to push, they could land the Italian star.
For Donnarumma, it’s much more than just the move. It’s about taking up the challenge of English football and becoming a key in Man Utd’s revival.
