Report: Real Madrid want Donnarumma

Real Madrid are reportedly interested in signing AC Milan goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma.

The highly-rated stopper became the youngest goalkeeper ever to debut in Serie A at the age of 16, and has since become Milan's number one despite only turning 17 earlier this year.

The teenager, who stands at 6'5", also became Italy's young-ever goalkeeper when he made his international debut in Thursday's friendly with France.

According to Sport, Real Madrid have identified Donnarumma as their future number one after dropping their long-term interest in Manchester United's David de Gea and will launch a bid at the end of the 2016-17 campaign.

Donnarumma joined Milan's youth system at the age of 14.
