A well-known player from Paris Saint-Germain is a target for Chelsea.
Chelsea wants to get a top player who would join Enzo Maresca’s squad.
Chelsea has already added players to their roster in preparation for the upcoming campaign, including Joao Pedro from Brighton and Liam Delap from Ipswich Town.
Pedro joined during the competition, while Delap joined prior to the Club World Cup.
With a brace in Tuesday’s 2-0 victory over Fluminense in the semi-final, the Brazilian forward has already made an impression.
When the Blues play Paris Saint-Germain in the final on Sunday, they will resume their Club World Cup campaign.
Additionally, Chelsea has been linked to a PSG player ahead of their matchup in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
Gianluigi Donnarumma is a target for Chelsea, according to the French publication L’Equipe.
Many clubs, including Chelsea, are reportedly interested in Donnarumma and are monitoring the goalkeeper’s contract status.
With his current contract set to expire at the end of the 2025–2026 season, the Italian’s future is still up in the air.
With players like Robert Sanchez and Filip Jorgensen currently on its roster, Chelsea is searching for goalkeepers to bolster their goalkeeping staff.
While Jorgensen made six league appearances and competed in his team’s successful Conference League campaign, Sanchez played 32 games in the Premier League last season.
Given his reputation as one of the greatest goalkeepers in the world of football, Donnarumma would be a significant improvement over Sanchez and Jorgensen.
However, Chelsea will have fierce competition because Manchester United and City are also keeping an eye on his contract status.
If Donnarumma doesn’t sign a new contract with PSG, he will be available as a free transfer in less than a year.
In the summer of 2021, the 26-year-old made a free transfer from AC Milan to PSG.
Since joining the French powerhouses, he has made 160 appearances in all competitions and contributed to his team’s Champions League victory the previous season.
