Donnarumma has declined multiple offers to extend his contract with PSG, citing decreased wages and disagreements over the contractual terms. According to Sportitalia the 26-year-old goalkeeper has received significant interest from Galatasaray, who are willing to offer him better wages than the French club have proposed so far. The ex- keeper appreciates the Turkish club’s interest but will take his time to decide his next move.

PSG have scouted ‘s Lucas Chevalier as a possible replacement for the Italian, but the winners are still trying to match Donnarumma’s demands and convince him to sign an extension. are monitoring the Italian’s situation at PSG though reports they advancing in talks with regarding triggering their €47m (£40m/$50m) buy-back clause for English goalkeeper James Trafford suggest they will not pursue the ex-AC Milan star.

Donnarumma’s issue with PSG stems from the club’s decision to lower the goalkeeper’s wages from €10m (£8m/$11m) to €7m. Though the club have included additional performance-based bonuses, the upfront decrease in wages has not been received well by Donnarumma’s camp. This move comes after PSG’s sporting director Campos plans to re-think the payment structure by focusing it more around performance-based incentives rather than guaranteed money. The Frenchman was also linked with Porto’s Diogo Costa, who is also a target for Manchester .

Donnarumma is still in his prime years and wouldn’t find it difficult to switch to a major European club. Him winning the Champions League last season further strengthens his case, and in a market depleted of top goalkeeping options, the availability of a player of Donnarumma’s stature is sure to attract significant interest.
