London's Chelsea club decided not to participate in the competition for goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma after PSG put him up for sale. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
The Italian goalkeeper ultimately transferred to Manchester City. Although Chelsea showed interest in the 26-year-old player, the London club did not compete with the "Citizens" for the star footballer.
According to TEAMtalk, Chelsea's management gave up on Donnarumma's candidacy because they plan to invite Milan player Mike Maignan, who is expected to become a free agent next summer, to the team. Currently, the player defending Chelsea's goal is Enzo Mareski, whose performances are often criticized.
The club's management is trying to find a new solution regarding the goalkeeper position. This decision was made in accordance with the team's future development strategy.
Additionally, Chelsea is making long-term plans to strengthen their goalkeeper position. Activities related to buying and selling players are ongoing.
The team's fans and experts want to see a strong player in Chelsea's goal in the future. The club's management is proceeding cautiously in this matter.
