Post
๐ฐ Donnarumma's agent insists nothing will change for the goalkeeper after Manchester City's guilty verdict.
๐ Key points
๐๏ธ Agent Enzo Raiola spoke on Italian radio.
๐ค He said City had spoken to Donnarumma directly to reassure him.
๐ "Everyone is calm," Raiola said, playing down any unrest.
โ๏ธ He stressed that the Liverpool and PSG games come first.
๐ก๏ธ He defended Donnarumma against what he called unfair criticism.
๐ What happened
๐๏ธ Speaking to Radio Napoli Centrale on 7 October, Raiola said: "Will the Manchester City chaos change anything? No, nothing will change for us or for Gigio. The club has spoken with Gigio and everyone is calm."
โ๏ธ He added: "Now there are important games against Liverpool and PSG, then sporting justice will take its course."
๐ก๏ธ Raiola said many had criticised Donnarumma unfairly, "especially because of the player's value", describing him as someone who has always kept his feet on the ground. He also said the keeper had been badly disappointed by Italy missing the World Cup.
๐๏ธ City were found guilty of 114 of 115 breaches of Premier League financial rules and have appealed. The comments come amid uncertainty over the futures of some of their players.
