The arrival of Gianluigi Donnarumma at Parc des Princes in July 2021 made Keylor Navas’ life much more complicated than it was. The experienced Costarican keeper faced a severe challenge for the place in the starting XI before going down the pecking order. The coaches changed, but one thing remained pretty much the same – Donnarumma was always the first choice. That led to Navas’ loan to Nottingham Forrest last year, and the rumours of his permanent move to Saudi Arabia were heard on a daily basis after the end of the previous season. Rebel Navas: ‘I want to play, something has to change’However, Navas insisted on staying with the Saints and was patient enough to get a chance to showcase his qualities.It will happen tonight against the third-tier US Orleans in the Coupe de France. ##NAJAVA_MECA_7812917##According to L’Equipe, the former Barcelona manager is set to make seven changes as Les Parisiens take on the underdogs. The first change should occur in goal with Donnarumma given the evening off and Navas deputising in the starting eleven. Luis Enrique is expected to make two further changes in defence, with captain Marquinhos replaced by Beraldo and Mukiele returning at right back. The attacking axis will be comprised of Goncalo Ramos, Randal Kolo-Muani and Marco Asensio, joining Kylian Mbappe, who will captain the side.
