It is important to firmly reiterate that no one outside of Milan can decide who plays and who renews. Certain choices are up to the coach as regards the field and the club for contractual matters: the note he issued to Ansa Paolo Maldini, the director of the Milan technical area in reference to the match that took place on Saturday 1 May between Donnarumma and the ultrs of the South at Milanello, in which the fans would have invited the goalkeeper to renew the contract or, in any case, not to play against Juve – among the possible candidates for the purchase of the goalkeeper – if the situation had not been resolved first.
Renewal frozen
From this moment – adds Maldini – every single negotiation for renewals is frozen until the end of the season, to allow the team to focus solely on the championship. In the meantime, we will continue to protect our players as we always have.
In comparison with the representatives of the ultr (about 20-30 people), from what transpires, Donnarumma would, as mentioned, have been invited to stay to become the Totti of Milan. The goalkeeper, who accepted the match reluctantly, seems to have sent reassuring messages (I decide and I want to stay at Milan), but in the end it is even burst into tears: tears dictated by the emotional stress that this situation, once again, has created in the boy. The story was much more dramatic in 2017, when fans called him Dollarumma.
