The tragedy of the heroes of the Champions League: Why Paris cleans up the world s best goalkeeper Donaluma

72 days ago, after the Champions League final, he was a Paris Saint-Germain hero. 72 days later, before the European Super Cup, he was excluded from the roster and became an outcast. The sudden "fall" of Gianluigi Donaruma is one of the most shocking events in football in recent years.

What exactly happened behind this?

Three Reasons for Breakup

1. Enrique's Philosophy: The technology under the feet, the eternal original sin

coach Louis Enrique, never fully trusted Donnarumma. The reason is very simple: his ability to shoot the ball under his feet does not conform to Enrique's tactical philosophy. Even after Donaluma used his magical pounces to help the team win the Champions League, Enrique still believed that this could not make up for his incompatibility in the tactical system. As the "Team" commented: "For Enrique, sometimes it needs to be destroyed before it can continue to build."

2. Campos' Blueprint: The new King Schalvalier

sports director Luis Campos has long planned a new blueprint for the goalkeeper position. He personally made the decision and introduced French national goalkeeper Lucas Schövalier and promised him the position of No. 1 goalkeeper.

3. Lesson from the Board: The last straw that broke the camel's back was the contract renewal negotiations. Donnarumma asked to maintain the team's maximum salary, while Paris hoped he would accept a new contract with fixed salary + floating bonuses. After experiencing the painful lesson of Mbappe's free departure last summer, the Paris board of directors will never allow any other star to enter the last year of the contract. When renewals are deadlocked, selling becomes the only option.

Exile and Betrayal

Now, Donnarumma has been completely excluded from first-team training and is likely to be transferred to a redundant player training group composed of Soler, Asensio and others.

"It's not that I don't want to stay. But some people don't want me to stay. I feel betrayed and really disappointed," Donaruma wrote in a letter to fans.

His relatives couldn't hide their anger in an interview with The Team: "Gigio made such a huge contribution to the team's Champions League, how could they let him miss this game? Without him, the team would not be qualified to participate in?"

" Paris spent 15 years looking for a world-class goalkeeper who can conquer the Champions League," RMC Sports commented, "but when they found him, they immediately eliminated him. This is a sad situation."

This is Paris Saint-Germain. Under the iron fist of Enrique and Campos, no one is irreplaceable—even the heroes who have just made history.
