Gianluigi Donnarumma`s agent clarified that his recent meeting at the Inter headquarters did not concern the Italy international goalkeeper. However, he surprisingly asserted that a return to AC Milan from Paris Saint-Germain is “not impossible,” drawing a parallel to Paul Pogba`s transfer history.
The agent, Enzo Raiola, sparked various rumours when he was seen entering Inter`s building in Milan earlier today. Speculation intensified particularly because Donnarumma`s contract with Paris Saint-Germain is not long-term, currently set to expire in 2026.
“I have never excluded interest from major Italian clubs, but there have also been no concrete negotiations, so we shall see,” Raiola commented to Radio Sportiva. “He is still quite young, so I need to maximize his potential for at least another decade! Currently, seeing Donnarumma in Serie A appears highly improbable, influenced not only by financial aspects but also by the sporting landscape. Beyond Inter, who made it to the Champions League Final, Milan and Juventus are currently facing challenges and undergoing reorganization. These factors are critical.”
Considering Serie A Options for Donnarumma
Donnarumma`s standing with AC Milan fans shifted dramatically in 2021. He went from being a cherished hero to a figure of controversy after departing for Paris Saint-Germain as a free agent. This move involved rejecting a significant contract extension offer from the club that had nurtured him since he was just 16 years old.
“Why wouldn`t it be possible?” Raiola remarked regarding a Milan return. “We facilitated Paul Pogba`s move from Manchester United to Juventus and then back again. Nothing is truly impossible, so this scenario isn`t either. Even if Milan isn`t experiencing its peak period right now, it remains a highly respected club, and Gigio will forever be grateful for their role in his development. They supported and raised him; Gigio will always feel affection and appreciation towards the Rossoneri.”
The 26-year-old Italy national team goalkeeper`s current agreement with Paris Saint-Germain is valid until June 2026. This contract timeline has fueled ongoing speculation linking him with a potential return to Italy`s top flight, with Juventus, Inter, and even Napoli frequently mentioned as possible destinations.
