PSG: Gianluigi Donnarumma tracked by Juventus

Transferred from Paris Saint-Germain to Manchester City last summer, Gianluigi Donnarumma already seems to have won unanimous support across the Channel. Following an investigation carried out by The Athletic among 20 players' agents, the Italian international goalkeeper (77 caps) has just been named “best rookie” in the Premier League.

With five votes, he is ahead of Jack Grealish (4), who joined Everton from Manchester City, and Viktor Gyökeres (2), who moved from Sporting CP to Arsenal. After only a month and a half in England, Donnarumma has visibly turned the page in Paris and is now flourishing at City.
