Inter Milan Legend Urges PSG & Italy Megastar To Join Man City Amid Nerazzurri Interest: “If I Was Him, I Would Go To Guardiola” | OneFootball

Former Gianluca Pagliuca has urged PSG goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma to join Manchester City amid Inter Milan rumors.

Speaking to La Stampa via FCInter1908, Pagliuca offered his verdict on the goalkeeper’s uncertain future.

Gianluigi Donnarumma has entered the final 12 months of his contract at the Parc des Princes.

Indeed, he signed a lucrative four-year deal when he joined the club from AC Milan in the summer of 2021.

Donnarumma currently earns around €11.5 million net per season.

Meanwhile, Les Parisiens have offered him a new contract worth around €8 million per year.

As expected, the 26-year-old has no intention of accepting such terms.

Therefore, he could leave Paris at the end of next season as a free agent, with Inter contemplating a move.

Despite Donnarumma’s past ties with Milan, the Nerazzurri view the Italy captain as a genuine target.

However, they face fierce competition from Manchester United.

On the other hand, Gianluca Pagliuca has offered different advice to the star keeper.

“I don’t understand why they signed Chevalier,” Gianluca Pagliuca said. “Donnarumma played a huge part in winning the Champions League.

“He was decisive in almost every match. Unfortunately, he was only untested in the final against Inter.

“He’s the best in the world. I think he could be worth a few million more in wages.

“I imagine they couldn’t agree on a contract extension for financial reasons.

“The accusation that he can’t play well with his feet? I remember Luis Enrique’s interviews after the games against Liverpool, Aston Villa, and Arsenal. He praised him, saying he’s an extraordinary goalkeeper.

“I would’ve understood such a move in the past, when there had been some problems and criticism was relentless.

“But after this triumphant season, it makes no sense. The issue is financial,” he added.

“If I were him, I’d jump at the chance to join Guardiola.

“Or he could also calmly stay at PSG for another year, take his chances, and then leave on a free in a year’s time. Maybe to Inter.”
