Gianluigi Donnarumma certainly looks of PSG this summer, with both Manchester United and Manchester City interested, and the transfer activity of the Italian has caused a commotion in the past
Manchester United and Manchester City seem to be fighting on the transfer market for random PSG goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma. The Italian has confirmed that he will definitely leave the French capital this summer, after being frozen.
Donnarumma played a leading role for Les Parisiens when they won the Champions League last season, but after the arrival of the French international Lucas Chevalier, his days seem to be counted in Paris. Both the red and the sky -blue halves of Manchester are now supposedly interested.
The side of Ruben Amorim needs a high-quality Shot stopper, with the mistakes of Altay Bayindir exposed in their 1-0 loss of Arsenal and Andre Onana who have made several mistakes in the past term. City, on the other hand, seemed to have found their number 1 for the future this summer in the form of James Trafford.
But with Ederson who leaves, after he was connected to Turkish side Galatasaray, Pep Guardiola remains interested in bringing in the 26-year-old Italian. Where Donnarumma will end is unknown, but he was previously involved in controversial transfer negotiations, namely in 2017 when he again signed with Boyhood AC Milan, and rumors about a clause in which his brother was involved, arose.
In 2017, a silent teen Donnarumma had become the starting goalkeeper of AC Milan and was considered one of the most promising shot stoppers in Europe. With his contract, he seemed destined to go somewhere else, with people like Juventus and Real Madrid waiting in the wings, but a drastic U-turn took place.
Although the player of the player, the late Mino Raiola, stated that he would not again sign at the San Siro, Donnarumma put the pen on paper for a new deal until 2021, with a number of alleged interesting clauses on it.
At the time it was reported that the brother of Donnarummma, Antonio, 27, as part of this new deal, who was also a goalkeeper who played for Asteras Tripolis, should be signed by I Rossoneri. This transmission of £ 1 million was completed only one day after the younger brother wrote his new contract.
Antonio was paid around £ 850,000 annually, six times less than his younger brother or sister. However, the sports director of AC Milan, Massimiliano Mirabelli, made the headlines for rejecting the existence of a clause in the new Donnarumma contract.
“The first thing we had to do was to renew Gigio's contract, but I immediately had the idea of bringing in his brother Antonio,” he admitted in 2017.
“The technical evaluation comes first and I think Antonio can be a 12th man for Milan. He is not a shipping package as someone said. I am sorry for him if certain things are written.
“Vincenzo Montella [former AC Milan manager] has also endorsed this signature. I know him well and I wanted to bring the family back together. I am proud to present the Donnarumma pair. “
Antonio, who had played for AC Milan in his youth before he continued with Genoa, some fans raged with his arrival. However, he released a good -hearted message eight years ago after he had made a move that was subject to contrasting reports and remains somewhat a mystery.
“I will be in the dressing room with my brother, which makes me very happy. It is a wonderful thing to be back in Milan,” admitted Antonio, who is currently playing for series C Side Salernitana.
After his deal had expired, Donnarumma left for PSG in 2021 and now seems to be set up for a new chapter. His brother, Antonio, also left Milan four years ago, moved to Padova shortly after the exit of his brother or sister and ended with his current outfit via Torino.
