Gianluigi Donnarumma, who came to Manchester City with a great stir in European football, spoke openly about his relationship with his new team, and especially Erling Haaland. The Italian goalkeeper says that playing alongside the Norwegian striker has become one of the most pleasant coincidences in his career.
According to Donnarumma, Haaland is not only a leader on the field and a formidable goalkeeper, but also a very calm, tolerant, and valuing family man in life. Their friendship began long before they joined the team.
The Italian goalkeeper says: even in matches where they faced opponents, they maintained mutual respect and sincere relationships, and after matches, they often talked together, developing mutually supportive relationships. Therefore, when the opportunity arose to move to City, Haaland was the first to send him a message.
"Erling really wanted me to come here. His support was a great motivation for me. Therefore, I sincerely thank him," said Donnarumma.
He emphasized that playing on the same team as Haaland provides great comfort not only professionally but also mentally. Because playing against him is very difficult - he is a player who doesn't stop on the field, is physically strong, and is ready for a goal at any moment. As Donnarumma jokingly put it, "Erling plays like a real alien."
Therefore, for a goalkeeper today, playing alongside Haaland is not just a job, but a harmonious partnership based on friendship, trust, and mutual respect. The Italian player is pleased with the atmosphere at his new club and believes this partnership will bring more joy to City fans.
