#2 - Gianluigi Donnarumma:
Gianluigi Donnarumma made his Serie A debut and kept his sheets clean for the first time at the age of 16, becoming the youngest goalkeeper in the league's history, to do so. At 17, he had already received a call-up to represent Italy's national team and is already being touted as Buffon's heir.
Donnarumma is already one of the most consistent goalkeepers in the Italian league, and will certainly continue to develop his talent in the next few years. Many pundits already agree that he has the qualities and the mentality to one day, be regarded as the best goalkeeper in the world.
Meanwhile, Real Madrid's current first-choice option Keylor Navas, continues to receive criticism as he tends to commit the odd blunder, every now and then. The Spanish club almost signed De Gea from Manchester United 2 years ago, so their intentions of replacing the Costa Rica international is hardly breaking news.
In the summer, rumours had linked Donnarumma with a Milan exit after his agent Mino Raiola had reportedly convinced him to leave the club for the reigning champions of Europe, but the move did not happen after Gianluigi was able to find a solution with the new Milan board in charge.
How could it go wrong if Real Madrid get their hands on, quite possibly, a future all-time great, who is already capable of delivering at present times?
