A summer of blockbuster transfers has witnessed its latest bombshell after the recent announcement of Gianluigi Donnarumma’s Paris Saint-Germain departure.

Today, Donnarumma is out of the PSG project with one year left in his contract which runs until the summer of 2026. So what happened in the last few weeks? Why are the European champions willing to let him go?

Gianluigi Donnarumma won the Champions League last season, reached the Club World Cup final with Paris Saint-Germain — and yet, he finds himself potentially on the way out of the Parc des Princes.

Donnarumma took to social media on Tuesday evening to announce that he had been forced out of PSG by one individual. Manager Luis Enrique admitted that he was “100% responsible” for this standoff, explaining that it has “to do with the profile of the goalkeeper my team needs.”

Gianluigi Donnarumma has been linked with a move to both Manchester United and Manchester City this summer. The Italian is one of the best goalkeepers in the world, and he was among the biggest reasons why Paris Saint-Germain won the Champions League last season.

Gab Marcotti and Julien Laurens debate if Gianluigi Donnarumma should have played in the UEFA Super Cup final after seemingly being pushed out the club.

Paris St-Germain manager Luis Enrique says the club back his decision to drop goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma for the Uefa Super Cup.
