Gianluigi Donnarumma and his agent Mino Raiola didn’t find an agreement with Milan, the club announced.
Loyalty is very rare in football nowadays, and Milan fans received a glaring evidence of it today as it was officially confirmed that Donnarumma will not be signing a new contract with the Rossoneri.
The agent of Donnarumma, Mino Raiola, was at Casa Milan today (Thursday) for a meeting with Marco Fassone (he didn’t want to meet Massimiliano Mirabelli). After the brief encounter, the CEO called a press conference to announce the decision of Gianluigi.
“I preferred rather than to release a statement, considering the focus on the so-called Donnarumma case, that I would update you immediately on the meeting I just had a few minutes ago with Mino Raiola,” Fassone said at the start of the presser which was broadcasted live on Facebook.
“Raiola informed us that Donnarumma has made a definitive decision not to renew the contract with Milan. It is a definitive decision, made by the player. I want to remind you all that 10 days ago Mirabelli made a very important proposal to the player, one even stronger than the reports that appeared in the various papers. The player evaluated it and made some evaluations that were not just economic, but also technical and professional, and he told us that he does not wish to renew the contract, so his time with Milan will therefore conclude by June 30, 2018.
“We were taken by surprise, as we had confidently hoped Donnarumma would be the keeper taking Milan into the future that we could build the team around. We trust we can do our best. Naturally, the decision leaves a bitter taste in the mouth, but now we have to go forward and Milan go forward.”
Sky Italia’s Peppe Di Stefano reports that Milan’s offer to Donnarumma was a five-year contract worth almost €5 million a season. It now remains to be seen whether the player will leave this summer or be kept by the Diavolo and spend the entire next season in the stands until his deal expires.
Sportitalia claims that Real Madrid are interested in the 18-year-old and are offering him €6m per season while PSG could also be an option. Milan did everything to keep him, but are now forced to buy a goalkeeper in this transfer market. It’s early to point at names but it will be interesting to see whether Fassone and Mirabelli decide to go with a veteran goalkeeper for next season until the highly-rated 17-year-old Alessandro Plizzari is ready to take over and be Milan’s #1.
Donnarumma said in the past that he wants to be a Milan legend and kissed the badge on numerous occasions. But when it was time to back it up with real actions, he showed his true coolers.
Ungrateful kid with a shameless agent, a perfect combination.
He shud be demoted and not allowed to train in Milanello again. That skills he is relying on will soon die in him. He will become the young worst goal keeper in Europe very soon. Trust me. #ShinePlizzari
Run bitc* Run…
Raiola is a shit. I knew the long wait, clause blaa ..blaa ..blaa was because he has a deal with man u or Madrid to make him more money. Let’s not get hold into a player if his stay is decided by his agent not his heart. May be Donna himself doesn’t trust into our project. Why doesn’t Raiola put clause on Bonadinho. Even Jackson Martinez was a star at Porto with great potential and before Bacca, Milan did put all efforts on him and Kondogbia but they rejected thinking Milan is a shit club. Look at them now? They… Read more »
Left to me, he’s no longer Milan player, and if I could feel and endured the pain of selling Kaka, I don’t think any player will take my sleep from me.
I think we should sell him at this market ( we need the money from him), or relegate him to under 18, never to train with the senior team, should not be registered for the serie A and Europa league.
Handanovic is the only keeper in serie A that can provide us with the covers.
Forza Milan
I’ve had a far worse time with Shevchenko’s transfer a decade ago…won’t really lose much sleep
I can’t believe this. I have never been so upset. Donnarumma and mino can both f*** OFF! I have never been like this before but this whole saga was ridiculous. You love milan then screw us? Good I hope plizzari shines bright and putts you to shame. I hope he takes over from your international spot too! I’m outraged man this is crazy
Guys chill out, it said more to follow. Anything can happen for the sake of Milan
We are chill. We just don’t want him anymore. He needs to leave. NOW!
More to follow? I read already on milannews.it comment from Fassone that this is his definit answer but Milan moves on. Forza Milan!
Sell every single Milan players who’s agent is raiola…
That means selling Bonaventura. I hear you but I prefer if Bona drops Raiola as his agent.
Put a rule in place that if you want to do business with Milan, you can’t have fat pig as an agent. He is a money hungry parasite.
I don’t know why am not bothered … AC Milan ain’t a one player team.. we just need a solid defense to work hand in hand with the next goalkeeper and donna nonsense would fade off
Right now it hurts a bit. But in the long run it’s a good thing for the team. Donna and Raiolla would mess up the entire planning every summer. We don’t want to dance as they want. In the end he is only a keeper.
I hope he goes to PSG (and never win anything). At least not to go to Juve-that will be too much.
And I don’t want him rotting on the bench. Sell him for 40m and show him we don’t need him. This all happened cause mino that scum wanted a release clause that we wouldn’t agree to. Absolutely ridiculous. BOTH OF YOU GET LOST!
At modern football we all learned that very little players that actually has loyalty, but all to be said, this thing sucks and surely going to hurt. Milan gave him chance and even though he did some mistakes still back him up, and this ungrateful kid did some unbelieveable decisions.
Time to move on, f-ck him and his agent, and the positive thiggs is, im sure to ease fans’s pain, ankther big signings is coming. For sure
Don’t ever even dream to step into San Siro . Kissing the others club badge would even make things worse for you at San Siro
Ungrateful ..thats why todays players cannot be legends..like baressi ..maldini..tassoti..buffon..totti..no player is bigger than a club like milan..donaruma is no ex ception..players like him repent through out their career..and will be colourless in no time..players like himcome and go..he seems to be thi nking himself extra intelligent greedy for money..time will gv him a lesson..
I’m relieved!! At 18 yo to be offered by so called “your club” €4m a year plus bonuses and is still not good enough because he allows his agent dictate he doesn’t deserve Milan. This agent thinks he’s the player, all this media attention, all the clauses and commissions he wishes. Really disgusting!! Out of interest have we got other players under this agent? I wish he gets banned for life from having anything to do with Milan!! Hope they get a back up goalkeeper and they put Plizzari as number 1!! Forza Milan!!
Donnarunma is a coward
this is where he will lose his integrity and love of italy and the national team
his value will drop to represent the national team
his costly mistakes he makes during match Ac milan cover will be critically expose during match
he has already lose his onion and bright dreams
i hope milan act fast to bring in a good replacement so this wount alter our transfer plan
One Love Milan Forza Rosonneri
Forza Milan. We are greater than one player. Let him go we will get another good goalkeeper. He was there past 2 seasons but we lost to Udinese home and away Roma Napoli so I believe with good defense and midfielders we will achieve our priorities. At his age 4m euro is not enough for him. Every football legend advised him to renew but he refused so let him go.
Comment: The funny thing about the situation is that players that want to stay will all they have are being thrown out, but we beg those that already left us metaphysically.
this is clear, Plizzari can keep, atleast, he showed that.
I will repeat that we should never allow any player a to be a monopoly in any position.
1st it was MSD, now Dona.
Storari,Plizzari and Guarone is enough.
Hats off to Fassone & Mirabelli for standing their ground. Strong management is all we need. If they gave in to this traitor, 10 more will stand up next summer. Bravo Milan.
Boy, i hate being right all the time.
So, anymore donnaista apologists who’ll claim that what donna and mino do is perfectly ethical, he’s more talented than both buffon AND neuer (absurd!) and he’ll be milan’s very own buffon?
Well, please excuse me while im being right one more time: 1) belotti isnt worth > 80m and kalinic is sure as hell not worth > 30m.
Oh, and when milan start winning significant trophies again, it wont be montella at the helm leading them.
Comment:we should get folsberg and I will be satisfied….the kid can go Milan is Milan…..this will never hinder our comeback project……………fassobelli get me folsberg plssssssssssssssssssssssssss…de guy is creative
If Gigio is acting like this at this age then he’s gonna go down in a fiery crash. This is going to be bad for both him and his agent. I can see clubs stop dealing with that blimp althougther and Real’s Perez has done just that. The guy is a money grubbing vulture and posin to a club. As far as The kid is concerned, he should keep his head down and work and try and improve. 4 mil a year for an 18 year old is a lot of money. He should look around to see what other… Read more »
F… him!!! He went from kissing the AC Milan badge to being greedy little prick. His agent is a pig but Donnarumma is to blame – if he wanted to stay with Milan and be a legend, he would just tell his agent, I don’t care what you do, I want to sign new deal, if you can’t work it out, I will find someone else who will. They offered him 4-5m contract, that’s more than Buffon is he is no where near his level and may never be. Buffon went down to Serie B with Juventus – that’s what… Read more »
Finally now we know we don’t have a goalkeeper my idea is give him to Madrid and in return dey give us james Rodriguez or give him to PSG and we get Kelvin Trapp plus their polish midfielder that we want .but not to any seria A club.I already saw it coming with the delays tactics his avent was introducing we will not miss him so is d club and d fan’s he will be remembered as a traitor nothing is bad chasing your dreams but not this way.fuck u FAT PIG RIAOLA and ur client
Freeze him out for whole season, no training facility for him for whole damn season..this kid really ungratefull..
Sell his ass to PSG and have them include Pastore in the deal. Finally give Plizzari a chance! Forza Milan!
Pastore or Veratti.
Great move Gianluigi… Ever heard of firing your agent?
What a let down, first youth product from Milan to not have the Italian pride to represent his team especially a bigger team such as Milan. His stupidity is to have an agent such as Raiola to decide his future, an agent that thinks about himself not the player. We supported this kid even though he made fatal mistakes, just like a mother teaching her child how to walk, believing in his abilities to become one of the best GK to ever play for Milan, yet he does this to us. he should know that the next team he chooses… Read more »
This is a sad moment for all Milanistas everywhere. A real stab on the back, just unbelievable. I believed till the very last moment he was going to stay, buy boy how wrong was I. Now it’s the problem of finding a replacement or pushing Plizarri or Gabriel to no1. There is also the choice of either selling him or letting him warm the bench till next year. Letting him rot on the bench would be taking our own pound of flesh, but from a business point selling is the best. And from this news, I doubt if we could… Read more »
i believed it too, that at the end he would stay with us, thats why even put him in to my avatar .. time to change it
and i hope we have gabriel and plizarri as gks, and plizarri starts playing this year to senior team
One dark spot on an otherwise great transfer market so far. This was drama and would come around every couple season. F that. Good by Dramaramma.
Comment: am sure, the next person to act like Donna is suso because he had already agree to 2.5m after the purchase of milan by the Chinese he said he want 3m ever since he refuses any contract talk.
bye
Yeah mate, ive been saying exact same thing regarding suso. He’s garbage player before milan took him under its wing but now it looks like we’re having donna 2.0 on our hands
Actually Suso is just average player, he always takes too much time to pass the ball and let’s say if he tries 10 moves only 1 or 2 goes good the other 8-9 put always a big risk of a counter attack. So if he starts to think he is better than he is and that Serie A is small for him. He can go F*** Off too.
This is the reason why u never give a 16 yo permanet chance to feature. If he got 5 games per season he would definitely have signed 5 year contract by 18.
Oh and yes, go to hell with ya boy
Dollarumma!!! We can say it’s all Raiola’s fault but fact of the matter is if Donna wanted Milan then he could have still signed! So it’s solely his decision and for that eff him. He’s a beast of a keeper and our keeper worries would have been solved for next 10 years, if not more. However in today’s time there aren’t many Maldini’s, Totti’s, Buffons, Giggsy’s or even Gerrard’s. Donna made a decision albeit financially and although it leaves a bitter taste, I guess he thinks he’s making a good decision financially. Good luck to him. Get him out and… Read more »
Not to be childish, but I truly wish him the worst. I hope he fails and whichever club he goes to and becomes a nobody. I don’t even want to sell him. I’d rather take the financial hit than to make raiola any money on a transfer. Let him rot and go for free.
Whoa calm ur tits mate. These things happen. Now its best for milan mgmt to make profitable decision without being overwhelmed by emotions
My tits are going crazy right now I can’t stop them. I hate him right now. Can you rub my back
I’d love to but that would put me in even more awkward situation than donna hanging around in milan locker room next preseason
I have a feeling he will sign for real. And I have a feeling we will get James or Morata in return. And I have a feeling that real will lose to milan in Champions league 2018/2019 with dona in goal and Morata scoring :D it would be so satisfying.
That’d be sweet but what if madrid trigger the buy back clause for both morata and james though? Haha
Why would we agree to that? thats would be stupid. No buy back clause for established players. Thats redanculus
And why would madrid agree to swap donna with morata AND james without inserting buy back clause?
Because they want to buy Donna? i dont see your point. Both of them are established players. If they where to have a buy back option it would be at a price tag they are at now. That means the buy back option would still be 60 mill and they wont realy get anything out of it. Maybe when they where 20 years and a risk. Than i’d agree with you but not now.
And if you look up i dident write Both of them. i said Morata OR Jamas. donna aint worth both. he aint even worth one of them. Donna will go for 40-50 mill. Real want 60-70 for morata and 80 for james.
Why would madrid put a buy back clause thats not cheaper than the actual price of the players?
Morata was worth way more than 30m madrid paid juve at that time. If he still have been 20m worth of player like when juve bought him then madrid surely wouldnt have triggered that clause.
My point is if madrid’re gonna buy donna it would be with cash not players swap because, like u said, both morata and james are worth more than donna.
Anyway, the buy back clause was a joke. Relax mate
I didnt read the “or” though, my mistake
No club in the world would agree to sign a player for 50m+ and giving him wages of 8m a year with a buy back option? xD where have you seen that before?
dont get me wrong i dident mean it to be a stright swap. Just make a deal behind the table that they will agree to sell to us if we agree to sell to them. If they buy him for 50 and we agree to by let say morata for 70. That would be a great deal imo
Hence i said its a joke, though i dont think madrid are above that
yea :D
If he wants to go sell him to the highest bidder, and let him sit on the bench until he accepts an offer (and afterwards if we need to wait until the winter). And may he, and everything related to him, be hated in Milan forever.
But I still think this is not over yet. We haven’t heard from Riola yet.
dont sell him… just put him at primavera until januari… put him at home and never give him to pratice at milan… let see if januari the other club still wants him…
be good goalkeeper need pratice and experience… until januari just gave him pratice how to see big pig raniola…
Exactly. And we should be done doing business with raiola. Bonaventura should drop him now
Fuck u Donnarumma
Bye suso bye bonadinho
atleast we have some real potetial to get Morata/James from Madrid.. Gigo + 20 mill.
logical solution would be to ask psg for straight swap with pastore. Letting his contract runs out and letting him go for free a year from now are dumb moves because 1) its not profitable for milan financial wise, 2) donna/mino can pick any club which will offer them most money, including juve and milan wont be able to do anything about it. just ask dortmund fans how they felt regarding lewandowski leaving for free to bayern. Its very important not to get emotional when making crucial business decisions such as this
Pastore is super overrated. He doesn’t do much with his national team and in PSG he isn’t brilliant either… Transfer market has more young and potential players. It would be better to spend more money in a player that brings all we need and in the financial point that has marketing that will help a lot in the Asian market. Pastore doesn’t bring any of those… Sorry mate but the truth is most Argentinian players are overrated. Not that I hate their players, Veron, Batistuta, Crespo, Messi, Maradona were awesome in their roles
Milan need playmaker and pastore is good playmaker. I know it, most football fans who watch his performances with their own eyes know it. Its no brainer really. Pastore doesnt shine so bright in albiceleste colors because messi already plays in his preferred #10 role while psg dont even use a trequartista in their 4-3-3 formation. Just because ballon d’or winners like baggio, sheva and kaka flopped at their respective clubs doesnt mean theyre overrated. Likewise pastore. What we know for sure is serie a fits pastore like a glove so yeah he’ll be good at milan. P.s. Beckham helped… Read more »
Madrid only hires the biggest names available in the market, they don’t care about the player, just see how Raul and Casillas go out… About Pastore and all you say Argentina National team isn’t the same as Veron/Crespo Argentina was, see every player from in every position they are, they play in best teams in Europe but in important games they don’t do nothing… Look Dybala, Higuain, Di Maria, Kun Aguero just name a player that take the lead and change games, like Kaka did in the past both with Milan and Brazil… If you say they are cracks cause… Read more »
Er, argentina were finalists of last 2 editions of copa america AND wc ’14 and they just beat brazil last week. Those are better records than batistuta era. Please get the facts straight mate.
and pastore never played in his preferred position as #10 because of messi but still he largely performs playing as rm
Yes, that might work, although we should get some extra cash. Donna should be worth almost double Pastore’s price …
It’s still a terrible setback if he leaves. The best player on our squad.
So disappointed in Dona. I wish him good luck and I want him to know Milan will never change its identity because of him. A greater player and generations of great players will still come and honor the red and black jersey and will thank us for it. We are bigger than one player. God bless A.C. Milan.
Good riddance, the reason he shined so much was cuz our defense was shit. Plizzarri was destined for greatness and Donna was the obstacle on his way. We should sell him, the only reason am sad is cuz he knew he would not renew and still let us sell Diego Lopez. We should sell him to PSG and get Pastore
This kid is so shameless and daft.. He and his agent are both greedy bastards.. Sell the biiish off oredy and get a nice goalkeeper for this season then promote plizarri next season.. I assure u guys that dona will flop and this fame that entered his stupid head will bring him down… Stupid traitor.. After milan gave you limelight this is how repay us? .. We all hate you now greedy stupid traitor… Fcking sell him off already..U can’t t cheat Milan and shine.. Go and ask.
We are Milan we don’t need plyers that don’t want to play in our colors, let’s not cry over spilled milk. He’s already decided. Anyone that does not want Milan should leave, a rule that stand for everyone
In my opinion no fan of any club would like to have a goalkeeper like him in club. He were so “reliable”!
Players like Maldini, Baresi, Totti and lots of others (who all of us know well) don’t born anymore!
AC Milan ain’t only one player, but club with very big history!
I would like to see Dollarumma in another club’s squad when Milan players score against him 5 times in 5 minutes! (F**king 5 million dollars?!!!! He refused! It’s more than Buffon’s wage!)
What a snake! He is dead to me now Raiola got to him and he let him now i hope he ruins his career
Fuck him
Please bring an experienced goal keeper who can serve next 2/3 season and by then we will have plizzari as our new donnarumma ( not in heart but in skill).
GIVE BONAVENTURA ,ABATE AND ZAPATA PLUS 30 MIL TO TORINO FOR BELOTTI,GIVE DONARUMMA FOR JAMES TO REAL MADRID,SIGN CONTI,FORSBERG,,KRYCHOWIAK AND NETO(GK) FROM JUVENTUS.PUT THIS LINEUP : PLIZZARI,CONTI,MUSSACHIO,ROMAGNOLI,RODRIGUEZ,KESSIE,KRYCHOWIAK,FORSBERG,JAMES,BELOTTI,ANDRE SILVA. DONNARUMA IS ONE ******.HE AND RAIOLA ARE PURE GREED AND I DONT WANT HIM TO FAIL,BUT I WANT PLIZZARI TO SHINE AND US TO BE CHAMPIONS NEXT YEAR.BUT MILAN FANS BEWARE HE WILL SIGN WITH JUVENTUS,THAT WAS THE PLAN ALL ALONG JUVE PAID RAIOLA AND JUVE WANTS HIM TO BE NEXT BUFFON AND WEAKEN US.BUT THEY DO NOT KNOW ALL THEY DO WONT HELP THEM NEXT SEASON BECAUSE WE GONNA **** THEM… Read more »
