Paris Saint-Germain is moving to sign a “replacement” goalkeeper for the Italian Donnarumma, whose performance has declined significantly during the last rounds of the French League, in light of the injury of his first replacement, Costa Rican Keylor Navas, and the lack of experience of his second replacement, the Spanish Arnau Tenas.
The Monte Carlo Sport radio and television network reported that Saint-Germain had found a solution and was aiming to sign Lucas Chevalier, 22 years old, the goalkeeper of Lille and the French U-21 national team, who convinced the Parisian management and Luis Campos, the club’s sports advisor, after following him closely. In more than one match in the French League, the last of which was his team’s match between Lille and Metz, which ended with a 2-0 victory for Lille, and the success of this goalkeeper in saving two penalty kicks, which contributed strongly to winning the match.
Chevalier has a good record this season, as he succeeded in 14 matches in stopping 39 shots, getting 8 “clean sheets” and conceding only 11 goals. He impressed everyone, especially the goalkeepers of the competing teams, such as Alexandre Okidja, goalkeeper of Metz, the team that… Lille faced him, as he praised his performance, and said in exclusive statements to the newspaper “L’Equipe”: A very good goalkeeper whom I followed before when he was loaned to the Valenciennes team, which plays in the second division. It is true that he faced difficulties in his first season with Lille, but he excelled this season in a great way. Signboard.
Okidja added: He is a young goalkeeper, and he can gain new experiences if he plays regularly. I noticed maturity in his performance during his match against us, and the ability to play with both feet, in addition to his calmness and balance. He commented, saying: He played a perfect match against us.
Okidja concluded his statements to L’Equipe by saying: I hope that Chevalier will participate in the next Olympic Games, and I believe that he has a promising future with the French senior national team, and he has already presented his “credentials” as a very good goalkeeper in the French League, and I hope that he will try his luck outside France to obtain the title. New and broader experiences.
Lucas Chevalier, born on November 6, 2001, began his professional career with Lille in 2018 and was loaned to Valenciennes “second division” for the 2021-2022 season, after which he returned again to Lille. He played for the French youth teams under 16, 18 and 20 years old, and is still a starting goalkeeper in the 21-year-old national team.
