Gianluigi Donnarumma and PSG seem to be heading toward a breakup within a year. The Italian goalkeeper has no intention of giving up his 12 million salary—in fact, after a season in which he played a key role in winning PSG’s first-ever Champions League title, the former Milan keeper is asking for a raise to 15 million. On top of that, there’s the inevitable agent commission for Enzo Raiola, who has clearly learned the trade well from his late relative, Mino Raiola.What’s that noise you hear? It’s Chelsea coming for one more keeperPSG does want to extend Donnarumma’s contract, but not only are they unwilling to raise his salary—they’re proposing to lower it to around 8–9 million, with another 3–4 million tied to personal performance and team results. Since his contract expires next year, Donnarumma is in no mood to accept those terms, especially knowing he’ll be free to negotiate with any club in just six months.It’s worth remembering that Donnarumma went through a similar scenario four years ago with Milan. The negotiations dragged on for over a year, as Milan refused to meet the salary demands set by then-agent Mino Raiola. When Milan finally agreed, Raiola upped the request again, and Milan’s management realized the keeper had likely already made a deal elsewhere—which turned out to be PSG.##EDITORS_CHOICE##It wouldn’t be surprising if Enzo Raiola already has a club lined up, one ready to meet the demands of both agent and client. Manchester City and Bayern Munich are both in the market for a new top-tier goalkeeper: Ederson is excellent with the ball at his feet but not among the top ten in terms of shot-stopping and positioning, while Neuer is nearing 40 and close to retirement.That Donnarumma save from Saka 😳#UCL pic.twitter.com/cXoTvzumwc— UEFA Champions League (@ChampionsLeague) May 13, 2025 From both a sporting and financial standpoint, City and Bayern can easily afford to bring in Donnarumma. But they aren’t the only contenders—Chelsea and Real Madrid have already explored the possibility of a move, while Inter might try to lure him back to Milan, playing on his nostalgia for the city.One thing is certain—Donnarumma won’t head to the 2026 World Cup (if Italy qualifies) without a club, and he will definitely want to be a starter somewhere. At 27 years old, with 500 appearances across league, cup, and national team matches, he’s in a perfect position to land the contract of his career—potentially with a salary to match Thibaut Courtois at Real Madrid.##NAJAVA_MECA_9019321##
