Chelsea and Man Utd to fight it out for AC Milan young gun Donnarumma

AC Milan goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma could be available for transfer this summer.

According to Italian publication Tuttosport, the Rossoneri are considering offloading the 17-year-old young gun in a bid to bring in some needed funds.

It has been suggested that Milan want to balance the books and could sell the talented gloveman, who has broken into the first team at the San Siro this season, for around £32million.

That news has Chelsea and Manchester United on alert with both their number one keepers Thibaut Courtois and David De Gea being heavily linked with summer departures, with Spanish duo Barcelona and Real Madrid prominently involved in that speculation.

Donnarumma is Italy's next big thing in the keeping department and would represent great value at that price, especially considering his agent recently valued him at nearer to £132m.
