This article contains exclusive comment from Stefan Borson, a former financial adviser to Man City.

Speaking exclusively to Football Insider, Borson said: “It’s looking possibly increasingly likely because Donnarumma is obviously definitely now leaving PSG, we know that.

“According to actually quite a few podcasts and people that know, they have said that he’s on €12million (£10.3million) net, so that’s the best part of £200,000 net a week, which obviously in the UK translates to about roughly £400,000 gross. 

“He did want a pay increase at PSG.

“It’s just extraordinary money obviously.”
