Paris Saint-Germain is about to formalize the arrival of Lucas Chevaelier, the goalkeeper of the LOSC, as part of an estimated transfer of 40 million euros, potentially increasing up to 55 million with the bonuses. The French international is expected in Paris this Thursday evening for his medical examination, followed by the signing of a five-year contract. This recruit is seen as a strategic reinforcement for the post of guard, especially after the club’s decision not to renew Gigio Donnarumma’s contract. Coach Luis Enrique insisted on a quick finalisation of the dossier in order to integrate Chevaelier into the team for the European Supercup against Tottenham.

The 2024-2025 season was historic for the PSG, crowned by an exceptional victory in the Champions League. The team’s course, marked by victories against European giants such as Liverpool, Manchester City and Aston Villa, culminated with a spectacular 5-0 win over Inter Milan in the final. This performance has propelled the PSG to the rank of the major European clubs, now generating respect and fear from its competitors. The team was determined to retain its European title in 2026, an ambition that President Nasser Al-Khelaïfi and coach Luis Enrique were convinced of.

This acquisition of Lucas Chevaelier is part of a policy of strengthening the Parisian workforce, aimed at maintaining the high level of performance reached last season. The club is aware that it will now be a target for all European clubs wishing to destabilise it. Despite this pressure, the PSG remains confident and determined to continue its dominance in the Champions League and to retain its title as champion of France. Chevaelier’s arrival is seen as an essential investment to ensure the club’s success.
