If Donnarumma is not going to play there is no way he is going to stay one year on the bench in Paris. Somehow he is going to leave the club, he is in his prime, he was in Milan's line up when he was 16 years old and now he should stay on the bench because Chevalier is playing? No way.

Honestly, I don't know the exact reason why Enrique no longer needs Donnarumma in the starting lineup. Although the reason currently circulating is that it doesn't fit with Enrique desired scheme, I don't think that's reasonable considering how good Donnarumma previous performance was and brought PSG many titles. PSG doesn't seem to care much about Donnarumma at the moment, just look at when Gigio was no longer a starter in the first match of the League 1 competition. This proves that Gigio must immediately find a new club before the transfer window closes because what the point of staying if he just a bench warmer.

From I understood, Luis Enrique prefers a player more comfortable playing with his feet, so the goalkeeper would be almost like the first playmaker of team. I understand that football keeps evolving and changing but I disagree with this idea: a goalkeeper must save goals, Donnarumma is clearly better than Chevalier and yet he lost his spot because the other player is better passing the ball. Maybe I'm old, I don't know, but I would keep Donnarumma over Chevalier, no doubt about that. If PSG won the Champions League a huge part of the merit goes to Donnarumma and his incredible saves.

Donnarumma is PSG's best goalkeeper right now. He contributed significantly last season, helping PSG win the treble. I don't think Enrique has a problem with Donnarumma. If you say he's an old goalkeeper, I don't think so, because he's only 26 years old. As far as I know, 26 isn't considered old, in fact, players mature more at that age.

According to the news I've read, Donnarumma's problem is actually a request for a salary increase, and PSG isn't ready for it. That's why Donnarumma's contract hasn't been extended. PSG has also recruited a new goalkeeper, Chevalier. This is an option for Enrique at the moment, as long as Donnarumma's problem with PSG is still unresolved, Enrique has prepared a new goalkeeper to replace Donnarumma.

Donnarumma is currently being sought by many top European teams, but PSG's asking price is too high. We'll just have to see how Donnarumma develops with PSG in the future.

Donnarumma is no longer PSG's goalkeeper: yesterday he wasn't even on the bench and after the match he went on the pitch and said goodbye to the fans so it's pretty clear that he won't be playing anymore for them.
And considering City's loss and the bad performance from their goalkeeper I'm pretty sure Donnarumma will join City before the end of the transfer window.

Wasn't it just two weeks ago that the media was saying that after talking to Pep, he would definitely be moving to Manchester City? It seemed to me that this transfer story, with all the rumors and speculation, had ended before it even began. Well, there isn't much time left before the transfer window closes, and I hope he doesn't end up without a team. He'll definitely be useful at City.
