It was twenty-four hours ahead of schedule that Gianluigi Donnarumma returned from vacation.
The European champion goalkeeper with Italy, who had been left free by AC Milan, was indeed at the Loges camp this Thursday morning, as the club showed on its website.
Designated best player of the Euro, Donnarumma was able to greet his partners who are preparing the resumption of Ligue 1 with the trip to Troyes, this Saturday, 9 pm.
On the pictures posted by PSG, we see him meet Achraf Hakimi, another recruit of the summer transfer window but especially Keylor Navas.
It is this photo that was quickly shared by Parisian supporters on social networks.
It must be said that the competition expected between the two goalkeepers remains one of the hottest issues at the start of the PSG season that Mauricio Pochettino will have to manage.

Asked whether an alternation of competitions - Ligue 1 / Champions League - was possible between the two men, the Parisian coach replied: “We will decide when the situations arise.
For the moment, we are happy to have the players present.
Afterwards, the states of form will decide.

He has loaned Garissone Innocent to Vannes (N2) and Alphonse Areola to Fulham (Premier League) and is preparing to do the same with Marcin Bulka at OGC Nice for a season.
Navas' accomplice and usual replacement, Sergio Rico, who had not been selected for the trip to Tel Aviv for the Champions Trophy, is also called to a departure.
