Lucas Chevalier has joined Paris Saint-Germain on a deal until 2030 — and he’ll be wearing the number 30 shirt. The last PSG player to don that number? None other than Lionel Messi.
The 23-year-old French international arrives from LOSC for €40m plus €15m in bonuses, swapping Lille’s goal for PSG’s in a move symbolizing a shift from global superstar glamour to French homegrown talent. Chevalier, already voted Ligue 1’s Best Goalkeeper at the UNFP Awards and a Yashin Trophy nominee, is renowned for his shot-stopping, aerial dominance, and precise distribution.
From 30 to… 1?
“It’s a great joy to be here. I’ll wear this shirt with love and ambition,” Chevalier said. PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaïfi hailed him as “a fantastic signing” for the club’s long-term project. For now, Gianluigi Donnarumma keeps the number 1 jersey — but for how long?
In the goalkeeping department, Renato Marin is also tipped to take the number 89, pending official confirmation.
