Raiola again declares he wants to remove Donnarumma from AC Milan

Agent Mino Raiola admits he wants to take Gigio Donnarumma away from AC Milan.

Milan are in talks to sign Napoli goalkeeper Pepe Reina.

“Will Reina or Donnarumma be the starter for Milan next year?" Raiola considered.

“Hopefully Reina…"

Donnarumma is expected to be the heir to Juventus keeper Gianluigi Buffon for Italy, but the 40-year-old has been called-up for the friendlies with Argentina and England...

"I'm amazed by the choice of Buffon, who I love, but that's just how Italy is, I need to tell you that.

"I've been trying to change things for 10 or 15 years without success.

"We give the national team to [Giampiero] Ventura and now [Luigi] Di Biagio - who has never achieved anything at a high level - and then await results.

"If you win you're right, because that's all that counts in Italy and for me that's wrong.

"If we call Buffon today we have to take him to the Euros, that seems clear to me.

"We'll only see Donnarumma with Milan and not with the national team, because if a new cycle starts with Buffon he'll continue up to the European Championships.

"If not then he [Donnarumma] will do it."
