Donnarumma, a 74-cap international, is one of the best goalkeepers in the world, and his potential arrival at Old Trafford would be a significant boost for the team. In an interview, former Manchester United player Wayne Rooney expressed his opinion on the matter, stating that signing Donnarumma would be a no-brainer for the Red Devils.

Rooney, who played for United from 2004 to 2017, drew parallels between Donnarumma's arrival and the impact of Edwin Van der Sar's arrival at the club. He noted that Van der Sar's calm and confident presence between the posts helped to alleviate the pressure on the defenders. In contrast, Rooney felt that the current goalkeeper, Andre Onana, did not inspire confidence last season.

Rooney's comments have sparked debate among fans, with some arguing that Donnarumma's signing would be a significant improvement for the team. His agent is reportedly in talks with Manchester City, but United manager Ruben Amorim may act quickly to secure the Italy international's services.
