Complicated and mixed week for Gigio Donnarumma. The Italian goalkeeper is capable of the best and the worst. During the previous day against AS Monaco (5-2 victory), the Parisian made a restart error.
An error which allowed ASM to return to a goal everywhere. The same thing this Tuesday in the Champions League against Newcastle.
The European champion with Italy in 2021 is not exempt from all criticism of the goal scored by Alexander Isak. The former Milan player poorly repelled Miguel Almiron’s attempt with his left foot which returned directly to the left foot of the Magpies striker.
The Red and Blue alternates the good and the less good. And its difficulties do not go unnoticed by various observers.
This Friday, as part of an interview for France Bleu Paris, former Parisian goalkeeper Nicolas Douchez (2011-2016) spoke about the transalpine international. For him, the technical staff of the capital asks too much of Donnarumma in relation to his qualities.
“These errors are perhaps also linked to what we ask of him. We ask too much of him in relation to his quality of kicking and he tries to apply what is asked of him. (…)he should worry less and take fewer risks,” did he declare.
A status soon to be called into question?
Can the status of Gigio Donnarumma be called into question in the coming weeks? A priori no, but nothing is less. Luis Enrique likes Keylor Navas. However, the Spanish technician wants to maintain his confidence in Gigio Donnarumma. But be careful, other errors on the part of the former Milanese could reignite the debate again…
