Gianluigi Donnarumma To Leave Paris Saint-Germain 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Tue Aug 12, 2025 8:29 pm

Gianluigi Donnarumma will leave Paris Saint-Germain after being omitted from the squad for Wednesday\'s UEFA Super Cup match against Tottenham Hotspur. PSG signed goalkeeper Lucas Chevalier from Lille on Saturday in a transfer ESPN reported was worth $47 million plus an additional $17 million in potential bonuses. 

Luis Enrique said he was \"100 percent responsible\" for the \"difficult decision\" to leave Donnarumma out of the squad.

\"Donnarumma is one of the best goalkeepers in the world, no doubt, and even better as a person,\" Luis Enrique told Sky Italy. \"But this is the life of high-level footballers. I am 100 percent responsible for this difficult decision.

\"If it were easy, anyone would do it; these decisions have to do with the profile of the goalkeeper that my team needs.\"

Donnarumma, already one of the squad\'s highest earners at €850,000 a month, wanted a pay rise and refused to accept the new salary structure imposed by the club\'s sporting director Luis Campos in the past two years
