Manchester City goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma revealed that his friendship with striker Erling Haaland played a significant role in his decision to join the «Citizens».
Gianluigi Donnarumma, Getty Images«He’s a great guy, he’s so calm, he loves his family and loves being with them. We understood each other well. This synergy developed naturally between us. Even when we played against each other, we stayed in touch and often talked after matches.
Then I had the opportunity to move here, and he wrote to me. He was persistent in persuading me to come here, and I’m very grateful to him for that. He’s truly a wonderful friend, and it’s great to play with him because playing against him is so hard! He’s an alien!» Donnarumma is quoted by Sky Sports.
