JAKARTA - Paris Saint-Germain has signed Lille goalkeeper Lucas Chevalier, with a five-year contract worth 40 million (Rp948 billion) plus a potential bonus of 15 million (Rp284 billion).
The official confirmation will take place in the next few hours, but Chevalier has undergone a medical test in Paris and will be PSG's main goalkeeper.
This makes Gianluigi Donnarumma, who played a key role in PSG's historic 2024/2025 season, have to find a new club this summer.
PSG does not want to keep the Italian National Team player and has two best goalkeepers in his squad this season.

Several clubs have shown interest, such as Chelsea, Manchester United, and Inter Milan. They have contacted Enzo Raiola, Donnarumma's agent, to take the next approach.
The 26-year-old wants to extend his contract in the French capital with only one year remaining on his current contract. However, both sides never reached an agreement.
Donnarumma, who has become one of the highest-paid players in the squad--850,000 euros per month (Rp16 billion) - wants a salary increase and rejects the new salary structure imposed by PSG Sports Director Luis Campos, in the last two years.
The new salary structure in question is a lower salary base with large incentives for individual and collective performance.
Donnarumma is an important player for PSG for the 2024/2025 season, with key saves in major matches against Liverpool, Aston Villa, and Arsenal as the club won their first Champions League titles.
However, manager Luis Enrique wants a goalkeeper with a better distribution and more comfortable possession of the ball, like Chevalier.
