£80 million Italian takes to Instagram after Chelsea reportedly open talks to get deal wrapped up
Gianluigui Donnarumma has taken to social media amid speculation that Chelsea have begun talks over a potential transfer deal.
It was no secret over the course of the summer transfer window that we were very interested in trying to secure a transfer deal for the big Italian before they opted to complete a deal for Edouard Mendy.
But the clubs interest has remained in the Italian this season, especially as there is constant speculation about his future at the Italian giants, and the fact that he has not agreed a new contract to extend his stay beyond the current season.
Despite his tender years, the 21-year-old has been the club’s first choice between the sticks for some time, and looks set to fill the role of the Italian national team’s long-term successor to Gianluigi Buffon.
And reports over the past £24 hours have suggested that we gave made their moves to try and convince Donarumma that a move to Stamford Bridge is the right one to make.
However, the big Italian is not letting all the speculation go to his head, as away from the transfer talks, Reflecting on what was a difficult 2020 for most, Donnarumma took to Instagram and wished everyone a Happy New Year.
“After a difficult year like the one experienced, I wish all of us a different, indeed normal, 2021,” he wrote. “Because the thing we need most is normality.
“And for us, who are ready to face the new year with the same spirit, grit and determination as always, the norm would be to be able to get our fans back to the stadium as soon as possible.
“Happy 2021 to all.”
