The goalkeeper situation continues to develop at Paris Saint-Germain. While Zion Suzuki is reportedly close to joining Paris with the possibility of being immediately loaned to Juventus, that scenario is apparently far from confirmed. Lucas Chevalier’s future could even completely change PSG’s plans.
PSG have been working for several days on signing Zion Suzuki from Parma. At the same time, the club’s management is reportedly looking for a way out for Lucas Chevalier. If the French goalkeeper leaves before the transfer window closes, Suzuki could ultimately remain in Paris this season, according to PSGINSIDE-ACTUS.
Chevalier’s Future Could Reshape PSG’s Goalkeeper Plans
One option being considered was to sign the Japanese goalkeeper before sending him to Juventus on a season-long loan to guarantee him regular playing time. However, according to PSGINSIDE-ACTUS, a move to Turin is currently far from certain. Much will depend on the changes that could take place in PSG’s goalkeeping department over the coming weeks. Chevalier is reportedly now clearly heading toward the exit, with Paris even looking to facilitate his departure in August. If he finds a new club, Suzuki could be directly integrated into Luis Enrique’s squad and spend the season at PSG rather than joining Juventus.

The situation is even more intriguing because Juventus are reportedly interested not only in Zion Suzuki but also in Lucas Chevalier. Other clubs could also make a move for the Frenchman. Rennes and Monaco have previously shown interest, while Porto could emerge as an option depending on Diogo Costa’s future. German clubs and Aston Villa are also said to be monitoring his situation. Meanwhile, Luis Enrique’s goalkeeper management has already attracted attention during pre-season. Against Manchester United, Matvey Safonov started before being replaced by youngster Alessandro Longoni, while Chevalier remained on the bench throughout the game. Rafael Pol nevertheless insisted there was no message behind the decision, saying it was simply the choice made for that particular match.
With negotiations for Suzuki continuing and Chevalier potentially leaving, PSG’s goalkeeping hierarchy could change significantly in the coming days. The club must now decide whether to loan Suzuki to Juventus or keep him immediately if Chevalier departs. That decision will largely depend on how the French goalkeeper’s transfer situation develops before the end of the window.
