Faced with the refusal of Gianluigi Donnarumma to extend his contract, PSG is very close to welcome Lucas Chevalier. A decision included Philippe Montanier.
The first summer recruit of PSG may well be Lucas Chevalier. While the player has agreed for several days with Parisian leaders, the latter would have indeed reached an agreement with their Lille counterparts and only a few details would now remain to be settled.
Nothing therefore seems to oppose the arrival of the young northern porter, expected to take over from Gianluigi Donnarumma. A time decried, the Transalpine goalkeeper nevertheless comes out of a particularly convincing season in the capital, his performances being for many in the coronation of Parisians in the Champions League.
But the former Milanese has only one year of contract with the red and blue and refused all the extension offers of the Parisian club. What force Luis Campos and his teams to react.
“To govern is to predict and it seems logical that Paris anticipates and has the will to have a very high level goalkeeper”, confided to this purpose Philippe Montanier at the microphone of RMC.
“Lucas Chevalier still has a margin of progression”
“It was wise to want to keep Donnarumma because it made it possible to have stability. He is already well integrated into the Paris project and he had a very great season. It is part of the current dynamics. But the problem is that it is at the end of the contract and that it chooses not to respond to the offers of Paris ”, he explained.
And for the former coach of Real Sociedad, the profile of Lucas Chevalier perfectly corresponds to the new Champions of France policy. “It is true that Paris has taken an option with young players with high potential and Lucas knight between well in this context”, he said, adding:
“The two profiles are very good but Lucas Chevalier still has a margin of progression. He is only 23 years old and demonstrates a lot of qualities. »»
