During his passage at a press conference during the Media Day, Luis Enrique did not fail to slip a few glowing words towards Gianluigi Donnarumma. Serene and secure of his choices, the PSG coach praised the Italian goalkeeper's season, stressing his decisive role in major meetings and his constant progression under pressure. In a young group in search of major titles, “Gigio” embodies a solid base for him, capable of making the difference when the time of the finals is approaching. A confidence assumed, at the height of Parisian ambitions: “This type of match presents the two situations. It depends on everyone's management and I think Gigio is a player who has a lot of experience and that he will be able to manage this at best. It is obvious that he will play against an opponent who has been part of his football career and beyond the match, I think it is very important when the games go crazy, at the time when one of the two teams scores first, what I already knew about past seasons, and I think it is his second final between three years of the Champions League and so that means that they do very well, so well, Milan knows very well, Ball, they are very mobile, they have quality players, they know how to defend high, defend low, it is a very complete team and a very high level coach“He said before continuing.
“”You know that each time it is to individualize over the two seasons where we have been there, we have always tried to bring each player to improve and adapt the characteristics of the players to our style, what we are looking for is not the same for a goalkeeper according to the profile of the guards and coaches and I believe that the improvement was obvious, I think they were more confident and that we could see a very good version of Gigio Donnaruma The same thing we had seen when he was a guardian of Italy against Spain, it is the same feeling that I had when I saw playing Gigio».
