Gianluigi Donnarumma has reportedly agreed personal terms with Manchester City following a shocking development.
According to L’Equipe, the Italian goalkeeper has held talks with Pep Guardiola, who is actively driving the transfer push. City now need to hammer out a transfer fee with PSG.
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has verified ongoing discussions between City and Donnarumma. He notes PSG are demanding €50 million, a figure City considers excessive.
Romano adds that City must offload Ederson, currently negotiating with Galatasaray, before sealing the deal.
Donnarumma announced his PSG exit on Tuesday, citing pressure from manager Luis Enrique, who seeks a more foot-skilled goalkeeper. This follows failed contract talks this summer, with his deal expiring in 2026.
PSG proposed cutting his €10m annual base salary for performance-based bonuses, which Donnarumma rejected, prompting the club to sign Lucas Chevalier from Lille.
His exclusion from the European Super Cup squad against Tottenham almost certainly signals the end of his time in Paris.
Donnarumma already has 10 years of experience and over 400 club appearances under his belt for Milan and PSG.
He has also been capped 74 times for Italy, winning Player of the Tournament at Euro 2020 as the Azzurri won the trophy.
