Manchester United is closely monitoring the situation of Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma but has not yet taken substantial action, while negotiations between Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain continue to progress.

Romano stated in a video that Donnarumma has a high chance of moving to the Premier League, which is the next destination the Italian is interested in. Manchester City’s interest in him is directly linked to Ederson’s future at the club. According to the player’s agent, the Premier League is Donnarumma’s preferred destination, and he is eager to leave Paris immediately, provided a suitable suitor can be found. No Serie A clubs have entered negotiations so far.

Manchester City has initiated preliminary discussions over signing Donnarumma, but the progress of the deal depends on Ederson’s departure. According to reliable sources, Turkish clubs such as Galatasaray are closely monitoring Ederson, so the Brazilian goalkeeper’s future may face uncertainties. Negotiations over Ederson’s transfer have not yet made a breakthrough.

Notably, Chelsea has not joined this pursuit. While Manchester United, as previously reported, has indeed added Donnarumma to its watchlist, the club is currently more focused on the transfer of Baleba and needs to balance the budget allocation for midfield signings. Inside the Red Devils, discussions on reinforcing the goalkeeper position continue, but no formal contact has been made with Donnarumma’s team.

Regardless, for Manchester City, the club hopes to complete the deal for a transfer fee below €50 million, while Donnarumma himself strongly prefers a move to the Citizens. He has recently discussed the details of personal terms with his agent. Manchester City will restart transfer negotiations with Paris Saint-Germain after the UEFA Super Cup.
