November 2025
Donnarumma revealed that his close relationship with Haaland played a key role in his decision to leave PSG for Manchester City, explaining that the pair quickly bonded and often joke about facing each other with their national teams. In an interview, the Italy goalkeeper praised Haaland’s ferocious left-footed strikes, even rating him tougher to face than Kylian Mbappe, and admitted he would rather have the Norwegian on his side as City chase more trophies following his switch from Paris.
