‘We’re Winning Everything’ ‘This Is Massive’ Chelsea Fans Can’t Hide Their Excitement After Latest Transfer Update
Chelsea have begun talks about signing AC Milan goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma on a free transfer, according to reports in the UK.
The Italian international’s current deal expires in the summer and he is free to talk to clubs about signing a pre-contract agreement this month.
Despite having spent £22m on Edouard Mendy back in September, many supporters on Twitter believe that the Blues can’t pass up the opportunity to sign a goalkeeper like Donnarumma:
We’re winning everything

no disrespect to mendy but if we pulled this off it’s probably one of the best signings we’ve ever made

We don’t like to do business with Raiola tho

This is massive. In 50 yrs time he will still be 21. Needs a long contract

Whether there is any credibility behind these reports, we shall have to wait and see. Donnarumma’s agent is Mino Raiola and director Marina Granovskaia has had run-ins with the Dutchman in the past.
The goalkeeper’s salary and signing-on fee are also likely to be high but, at 21 years of age, they would be getting a player who could be the club’s number one for the next decade. It seems like a deal worth exploring at the very least.
