[Reporter s Observation] "Qianduoduo" Donnarumma once again seeks transfer in the year of winning the championship, and may make more money from Manchester United

In the early morning of August 9, the new Champions League champion Paris Saint-Germain signed the 23-year-old French national goalkeeper Schalvalier from Lille, replacing the main goalkeeper Donnarumma, who had basically failed to renew his contract.

Paris Saint-Germain won the first Champions League championship in club history on June 1 this year. Donnarumma made great contributions. In the process of eliminating Premier League giants such as Liverpool, Villa, and Arsenal last season in the Champions League, Donnarumma felt like a helping man. Donnarumma is very greedy for money and has long been given the nickname "Qianduoduo" by fans. After winning the championship, he proposed a salary increase, but failed to reach an agreement with the Paris Saint-Germain Club.

Donnarumma's weekly salary in Paris Grande is about 212,500 euros, and he is already one of the highest-paid players in the team, but he yearns for higher incomes. This is not the first time Donnarumma proposed a salary increase in the year of winning the competition. If the salary increase requirement is not met, it is necessary to seek a transfer.

In the summer of 2021, Donnarumma helped the Italian team win the European Cup. He was named the best player in that European Cup. It is rare for goalkeepers to win the best player in the competition, which shows his important role in the national team. Donnarumma had a long stalemate at the time when the contract renewal negotiations with his old club AC Milan, but the contract renewal failed. When the contract expired, he joined Paris Saint-Germain on July 14, 2021, without leaving a penny for AC Milan. Many AC Milan fans "deeply hate him" for this.

Paris Saint-Germa learned from AC Milan's lesson and showed up with Donnarumma this summer with one year left in the contract, either agreeing to the club's renewal conditions or selling him. Donnarumma, 26, is in his prime of his career. One of the best goalkeepers at the moment has no worries about finding a job. Chelsea, Manchester United and Inter Milan have become his potential next home. Donnarumma's salary is overwhelming for Serie A team, so Chelsea or Manchester United are more likely.

Manchester United midfielder Casemiro's weekly salary is as high as 350,000 pounds (about 400,000 euros), while Manchester United captain B's weekly salary is 300,000 pounds (about 350,000 euros). If Donnarumma joins Manchester United, with his status as a gangster, his weekly salary should be in line with Casemiro or B Fee. If he does not receive a significant salary increase, the operation of agent Raiola to help him leave Paris Saint-Germain is not very meaningful.

Paris Saint-Germain reached the peak of team history this year. Among the 30 candidates for the 2025 Golden Ball Awards recently announced, as many as 9 new Champions League champions were selected. Except for the main central defender combinations Marginhos and Pacho were not selected, the remaining nine main players Donnarumma, Mendes, Ashraf, Vitinia, Ruiz, Neves, Kvaratsheria, Dembele and Douai were all shortlisted. Dembele is a popular favorite to win the Golden Globes, while Paris Saint-Germain coach Enrique is a popular favorite to win the Best Coach of the Year.

But Paris Saint-Germain needs to continue to develop, and one of the reasons why he sells the main goalkeeper Donnarumma is that the salary he requires is too high, and there are also technical reasons. Although Donnarumma is one of the best goalkeepers with save skills, his foot skills are a little rough and his ability to use his feet to get the ball out is not very strong. In order to pursue control of the game, Enrique hoped to get a goalkeeper with better skills under his feet, so he fell in love with the French national goalkeeper Schwarier.
