Manchester City have confirmed the signing of Gianluigi Donnarumma from Paris Saint-Germain, with the move subject to international clearance.
The 26-year-old Italy international goalkeeper has agreed a five-year contract, keeping him at the Etihad Stadium until summer 2030.
A Proven Winner
Standing at 6ft 5ins, Donnarumma has long been regarded as one of the finest goalkeepers in world football.
- AC Milan: Broke through as a 16-year-old, made over 250 appearances, won the 2016 Italian Supercoppa.
- PSG: Claimed 4 Ligue 1 titles, 2 Coupe de France trophies, 3 Trophée des Champions, and most notably the 2024–25 Champions League after a 5-0 win over Inter.
- Italy: Hero of EURO 2020, saving decisive penalties in the final against England and winning Player of the Tournament.
Donnarumma’s First Words as a City Player
“To have signed for Manchester City is such a special and proud moment for me,” said Donnarumma.
“I am joining a squad packed with world-class talent and a team led by Pep Guardiola, one of the greatest managers in football history. This is a club every player would love to join. I promise to give everything to help achieve even more success.”
City Welcome Their New Keeper
Director of Football Hugo Viana hailed the signing:
“Gianluigi’s pedigree and quality speak for themselves. He arrives here as one of the best goalkeepers in the world and will add further strength to our squad. Everyone at City is delighted to welcome him.”
With Donnarumma now set to compete for the No.1 spot, City add yet another world-class talent to their ranks as they aim for continued dominance at home and in Europe.
