Paris, France – Gist no dey sweet pass when goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma dey package to leave Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) like fresh suya. E don reach level wey dem no carry am go UEFA Super Cup wey dem play against Tottenham last Wednesday, after dem bring in Lucas Chevalier from Lille. Wetin dey happen here?
People wey sabi football say Manchester City dey yan say dem no discuss anything with Donnarumma yet, but dem no wan completely rule out the possibility of him joining them (Talk am so we no go hear say dem dey play prank).
Sources from Etihad Stadium talk say fit happen if their current number one goalkeeper, Ederson, decide to bounce go another club. E sure say PSG no go chop surprise if Donnarumma end up for City, sha. Who no wan play for the team wey carry Champions League trophy?
City don already throw new deal for Donnarumma this summer but e no work out. Head coach Luis Enrique don make am clear say him no need am right now (E be like say dem don forget how Donnarumma hold dem down last season).
Enzo Raiola, wey be Donnarumma agent, talk say di goalkeeper don even gree reduce him salary just to gree stay for Paris, but PSG pipo deny am o. Dem gree say wetin dem dey offer go make am one of di highest-paid keepers for di world. Na wah!
But as di news dey unfold, both sides gist don land for one place wey dem no wan escalate tension. PSG wan collect wetin dem fit from di guy wey dey come free transfer four years ago. City get four senior goalkeepers already, but e fit turn gbedu if Ederson decide to relocate.
Meanwhile, some rumors dey fly say Pep Guardiola don sign deal wey go bring Donnarumma into di team, but insiders don talk say na just talk (E be like say na drama wey dem dey play for Night of a Thousand Laughs).
Ederson dey enter di final year of him contract. When dem ask am about him future, him gree talk say: “My mind dey here.” But who sabi? If correct money land from any club, we go see wahala wey fit make him change him mind.
Competition for City goalkeeping spot don dey hot! With James Trafford wey come from Burnley and Marcus Bettinelli as third choice dis summer, e be like say Stefan Ortega go soon pack him things. City don open ground for offers wey fit make dem buy another goalie if Ederson manage to move go another place.
Donnarumma go still dey shine anyhow. His passing accuracy for last season na 85.4%, make we no forget say Ederson dey top di game for assists with record of eight assists for di club. But no forget say Donnarumma dey keep better save percentages most times, but dis past season no sweet am as he meet only four clean sheets in 24 league starts.
As di transfer window dey waka, e go sweet to see wetin go happen next. E fit be say Donnarumma go shine for City but for now, we go dey watch! (We no fit miss all di drama wey transfer season dey bring, abi na lie?).
