PSG Keen on Chelsea, Bayern Munich Target to Bolster Goalkeeping
Paris Saint-Germain are facing uncertainty regarding their goalkeeping situation, with questions surrounding Gianluigi Donnarumma’s future. If the club chooses to part ways with the 25-year-old, they may need to explore the transfer market for a replacement.
Despite being under contract until 2026, Donnarumma’s performances have been inconsistent, with errors casting a shadow over his time at the club. This could be testing PSG’s patience as they consider their long-term plans for the position.
A January move for a new goalkeeper seems unlikely, but next summer could see the Ligue 1 side searching for a more reliable presence in goal.
Are PSG keen on FC Porto star to solve goalkeeping issues?
Under sporting advisor Luis Campos, PSG have looked toward Portugal to pursue talented players and it seems they might do that to bolster the goalkeeping position. PSG Inside Actus reported on Sunday that the capital club have five goalkeepers on their radar and one of them is Diogo Costa.
The report reveals that the young Portuguese goalkeeper is considered one of the best prospects in his position. His performances in Liga NOS and the UEFA Champions League have caught the attention of major European clubs.
