Earns clean sheet at Metz Navas recorded two saves and allowed zero goals in Sunday's 2-0 win against Metz.

Impact Navas did a good job between the posts, helping his team to end the season as the league's second-best defense. Still, it was only his fourth start of the year, and he's likely to leave Paris after being relegated in the competition with Gianluigi Donnarumma and Arnau Tenas. Even at 37 years old, the Costa Rican may be a valuable option for clubs that require experience and constant saves.

One save vs Le Havre Navas had one save and allowed three goals in Saturday's 3-3 draw against Le Havre.

Impact Navas conceded three or more goals for the first time this season. It was only the second occasion in the ongoing campaign where the 37-year-old made just a solitary save.

APRIL 30 • ROTOWIRE

One save against Reims Navas had one save and allowed two goals in Sunday's 2-2 draw against Reims.

Impact Navas was unimpressive between the sticks during his first appearance in a month, allowing two goals in only his second appearance of the season in Ligue 1. He will likely return to the bench away to Montpellier next time out as he remains firmly behind Gianluigi Donnarumma on the depth chart.

MARCH 12 • ROTOWIRE

Two saves in 3-1 win Navas had two saves and allowed one goal in Saturday's 3-1 victory against Lille.

Impact Navas started his first game in the league campaign this season. Other than making a couple of saves and conceding a goal, the 37-year-old made a clearance as well.

FEBRUARY 12 • ROTOWIRE

Returns in friendly Navas started Sunday's friendly clash with US Revel.

Impact Navas got the start during Sunday's friendly. The goalkeeper might be little more than a coach at this point as he won't likely see Ligue 1 action outside a plethora of other injuries ahead of him on the depth chart.

JANUARY 8 • ROTOWIRE

Won't return Navas (back) won't be an option before the winter break.

Impact Navas remains on the sideline as he continues to work back from an injury. Even when he is fit he won't be anything more than a goalkeeping coach in all reality, so this does little to change any part of the first team.

DECEMBER 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Absent again Wednesday Navas (back) will not be available versus Borussia Dortmund on Wednesday.

Impact Navas has yet to get into a Ligue 1 or Champions League match for the club this season. While Gianluigi Donnarumma will get the start against Dortmund, the absence of Navas could impact the club's starting XI versus Lille on Sunday with Donnarumma suspended for that contest.

DECEMBER 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Out once again Navas (back) is out for Saturday's match against Nantes.

Impact Navas is still awaiting a return, being left out once again with a back injury. The goalie will hope to return sometime before the end of the year after training individually this week, but most likely still won't see any playing time, with Gianluigi Donnarumma and Arnau Tenas looking to have the option over Navas.

DECEMBER 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Trains individually Navas (back) was back in individual training this week ahead of Saturday's match against Nantes.

Impact Navas only trained individually this week, most likely not being an option for Saturday after not joining team training. The goalie will hope to end his rehabilitation process soon and return to full fitness, as he has dealt with injuries all season, barely being an option for the club even though he is only their backup. Even if the Costa Rican does make the team sheet against Nantes, he most likely won't get the start, as Arnau Tenas will probably gain that role with Gianluigi Donnarumma out due to suspension.

DECEMBER 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Continues rehabilitation on back Navas (back) is continuing his rehabilitation process ahead of Tuesday's match against Newcastle.

Impact Navas is still sidelined as he continues to deal with back issues. It appears that the goalie may be reaching the end of his professional career as he is having yet another injury-filled season. However, this should be no issue for the club, with Gianluigi Donnarumma maintaining the starting spot in net.

NOVEMBER 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Sidelined again Navas (back) is not available for Tuesday's match against AC Milan after missing the preliminary squad.

Impact Navas will be out for another match, marking his third straight match absent and his second straight in the UCL. The Costa Rican has dealt with multiple injuries this year so far and has appeared in the injury report more than he has on the matchday squad this season. Luckily for PSG, this shouldn't affect the squad, with Gianluigi Donnarumma holding down the starting spot.

NOVEMBER 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Another weekend on the sidelines Navas (back) will not be an option for Friday's match against Montpellier, as he is still dealing with a back injury, according to the club.

Impact Navas will be spending another weekend on the sidelines after being preserved another match day due to lower back pain. The goalie has already dealt with multiple injuries through the first couple of months this season. Luckily, it hasn't affected the squad, seeing that he is only the backup. Arnau Tenas will serve as the backup keeper on the bench for Friday's match, with Gianluigi Donnarumma holding the starting role.

NOVEMBER 2, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Absent from squad Navas (back) was not included in the squad list ahead of Wednesday's matchup with AC Milan.

Impact Navas was not expected to unseat Gianluigi Donnarumma from the starting XI even to begin with, so his absence from the squad is unlikely to have much of an impact on the club. Without Navas available, Arnau Tenas figures to serve as the secondary option behind Donnarumma.

OCTOBER 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable for Wednesday Navas is questionable for Wednesday's match against Milan after picking up a lower back injury, according to the club.

Impact Navas may not be an option on Wednesday, as he injured his back this week during training and was not included in the final training session before the match. The one positive in all of this for the club is that his absence shouldn't affect the starting XI, as he is only the backup keeper at this point. If he does end up being healthy, he will only be an option off the bench, with Gianluigi Donnarumma holding the starting role.

OCTOBER 24, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Ready for return Navas (strain) is a part of the traveling squad for Wednesday's match against Newcastle.

Impact Navas is making his return to play after sitting out the whole start of the season due to a strain. His return adds depth to PSG's squad more than anything, as they now have two world-class keepers healthy in their dressing room. The Costa Rican will probably only hold a role on the bench for Wednesday's match, as Gianluigi Donnarumma holds a firm grip over the starting role.

OCTOBER 2, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Not traveling Navas (strain) isn't in the traveling squad for Saturday's trip to Clermont Foot.

Impact Navas isn't in the traveling squad for Saturday's trip after picking up a training injury. Gianluigi Donnarumma is the top choice in net for the Parisian side either way, with the only change being the addition of Alexandre Letellier to the bench.

SEPTEMBER 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Plays second-half Thursday Navas (groin) took over for the second half of Thursday's friendly versus Jeonbuk.

Impact Navas may still have to continue watching from the bench while Gianluigi Donnarumma figures to be the first-choice keeper heading into the 2023-24 season. If he can't see more opportunities, Navas may ask to pursue other options, much like he did last season with a loan move to Nottingham Forest.

AUGUST 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Listed in traveling squad Navas (groin) is in the traveling squad for PSG's pre-season tour of Japan.

Impact Navas is back in the traveling squad for a pre-season tour of Japan after a groin injury ruled him out of the Gold Cup. The goalkeeper will now have the chance to continue his return to fitness, though he is firmly behind Gianluigi Donnarumma in the first team.

JULY 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out of Gold Cup Navas (groin) will not be available to compete in the Gold Cup with Costa Rica later this month, the federation announced Thursday.

Impact Navas missed the final game of his loan stint with Nottingham Forest a few weeks ago after suffering an adductor injury, and he will not be fit enough to make Costa Rica's Gold Cup roster either this summer. The 36-year-old goalkeeper will hope to return fully fit by the start of the 2023/24 campaign, whether he's at PSG or elsewhere.

JUNE 16, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Loan stint ends Navas (groin) will return to PSG following the end of his loan spell with Nottingham Forest.

Impact Navas missed the season finale for Forest due to his groin problem, a disappointing end to a 2022-23 campaign that saw him feature 17 times for the club in which he registered 51 saves and one clean sheet while considering 51 goals. It seems unlikely Navas will challenge Gianluigi Donnarumma for the starting gig, so don't be surprised to see Navas head out on loan for the 2023-24 season as well.

JUNE 2, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Out for season finale Navas (groin) will miss the Crystal Palace match to close out the season this weekend, Forest manager Steve Cooper confirmed Friday.

Impact Navas suffered this injury in last weekend's win over Arsenal and he's been ruled out of the Palace clash on Sunday. The 36-year-old kept one clean sheet and conceded 32 goals across 17 Premier League matches while on-loan with Nottingham Forest this spring, though he's set to return to PSG in the summer. Wayne Hennessey should start in his place this weekend.

Clean sheet, picks up injury Navas was subbed off due to injury in the 99th minute of Saturday's 1-0 win against Arsenal. He made three saves and allowed zero goals before exiting the match.

Impact It's unclear what happened with Navas in the final seconds of the contest and was subbed off in the 99th minute. It's unclear whether he'll be able to play in the season finale against Crystal Palace. This was first clean sheet of the season, but it came through when the Trick Trees needed it the most.

Makes four saves in draw Navas recorded four saves and allowed two goals in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus Chelsea.

Impact Navas has now conceded 17 goals in the last eight matches to put him at an average of two goals allowed a game. He's failed to record a clean sheet since his club debut on Feb 5, letting in 32 goals since. The keeper will face a tough opponent in the next contest with a visit from Arsenal, who have scored 111 goals in the last five matches.
