Donaluma s contract renewal is doubtful, Chelsea is listed as a potential next home, the conflict in the Club World Cup will have an impact

On July 26, according to French media "League", the Premier League Chelsea club is closely monitoring Paris Saint-Germain's main goalkeeper Donaluma and explore the possibility of introducing it, because the players' contract renewal negotiations with Paris are progressing slowly. Currently, Donnarumma has only one last year left in the contract with Paris.

Chelsea publicly pursued AC Milan goalkeeper Meinion this summer but failed. Although new coach Maresca publicly expressed his trust in the current goalkeeper Sanchez and substitute goalkeeper Jorgensen during his leadership of the Club World Cup, Chelsea's intention to strengthen the goalkeeper's position is still very clear. The "Team News" analyzed that the previous bid for Menion was more about using his contract status to operate rather than losing confidence in the existing goalkeeper, and the interest in Donnarumma this time is also a similar situation.

Donnarumma, 26, has entered his final year of contract, and he himself tends to stay in Paris. However, there are still significant obstacles in the renewal negotiations between the two sides. According to reports, Donnarumma is currently the only player in Paris who still holds the contract signed by sports director Campos before taking office. Campos has led a major reform of the club's salary structure and implemented a contract model based on incentive clauses, which is similar to Chelsea's current strategy. Donnarumma's existing contract includes high fixed weekly wages, and Paris has tried many times to convince him to accept the new salary framework but has not been successful.

It is this contract extension that has aroused the interest of Chelsea. "The Post" has repeatedly listed Chelsea as Donnarumma's potential next home. At present, Paris Saint-Germain has no intention of actively selling Donnarumma. But it is worth noting that the Ligue 1 overlord is actively chasing Lille goalkeeper Shevalier. Once Schevalier successfully joins Paris, Donnarumma's position in the team will be directly impacted and may be forced to leave the team.

However, the feasibility of Donnarumma's transfer to Chelsea remains questionable. Similar to Paris, Chelsea almost certainly requires players to accept salary cuts before completing the deal. In addition, the two clubs clashed after the final of the Club World Cup that ended not long ago, and Donnarumma was involved, with Paris coach Enrique hitting Chelsea player Pedro in the face in the chaos. Whether this tension can be resolved will also be one of the key factors in whether the transfer can be successful.
