well you must remember that contract discussions between Milan and Donnarumma/Raiola have been very messy before. I remember there was a lot of drama when he renewed in 2017, Milan eventually caved and paid him a lot of money as well as signed his brother. This time, they simply had enough at some point. They offered him a more than fair deal (I think 8-10 million per year), but Raiola continued to demand 12 as well as 20 for him (of course). I completely understand Milan in that situation, you can't continue to have agents run the show. They'll be fine with Maignan, he's a good keeper too.
