Donnarumma, who made his professional debut in AC Milan in 2025, surprised the Serie A stage by showing his ability to defend himself through tremendous reflexes despite his young age. At the age of just 16, he was in charge of Milan's goalkeeper, and also showed tremendous growth for the Italian national team, replacing Gianluigi Buffon. His good defense on major stages such as penalty shootouts made fans cheer.
Donnarumma was not accompanied by Milan for a long time. I chose to transfer while wearing a PSG uniform in 2021. His skills were as good as ever. After his transfer, he won the competition with Keylor Navas to take the position of PSG's main goalkeeper. In the 2024-2025 season, Donnarumma received favorable reviews by leading the first UCL victory in PSG club history with tremendous saves. Even though he suffered an injury during the season in which his face was shot by an opponent's stud, he remained in place and devoted himself.
However, the companion of Donnarumma and PSG was not a happy ending. The biggest reason is the changed salary proposal along with the change in PSG's salary system. PSG is expected to re-sign general manager Luis Campos to reduce its basic salary and implement a variable remuneration policy based on the number of games played and various performances. Due to this policy, Donnarumma was offered less than his previous salary despite his performance this season, and an agreement was not reached.

Luis Enrique also hired a new goalkeeper, Luca Schvalier, and he was chosen as the new goalkeeper. In the end, Donnarumma made the decision on August 13 on his personal SNS page saying, `Now I can no longer remain a part of this team and contribute to the team's success. It's frustrating and frustrating. I hope I have a chance to say hello to my fans properly. 'It was an honor for me to play for this club and spend it in the city,' he said, confirming his farewell.
The new team holding Donnarumma's hand was Manchester City. Manchester City are close to transferring Ederson, who was the main goalkeeper this summer, to Fenerbahce. Newcomer James Trafford is also sluggish, and Donnarumma is likely to become the main goalkeeper at the same time as the transfer. Manchester City is expected to hope that the recruitment of Donnarumma will be the key to the turnaround at a time when it is sluggish with one win and two losses in three league games. Following Serie A and League 1, Donnarumma's new journey to the English Premier League is imminent.
