exactly.
not that it's bad like having Khedira
But obviously the best situation for us would be:
Selling polish guy for 20-30m
Get Dollarumma for 20m + 6m wages (as some rumors say)
So double-triple win XD same or lower wages and some money spent/gained
Basically a 0€ operation.
But it's obvious that if we can't find a new home for Szczesny ... Dollarumma not gonna happen

Dollarumma it's just a way to get a italy national player 22years old instead of Szczesny 30years old with very expensive wages/fees
So I agree if the terms are what they're talking about and no if we had to give him 10m as wages
I heard rumors about Donnarumma accepting the same wage he had at Milan.
That would be ok since we pay Szczesny more anyway!
Else we need to buy 2 midfielders and prolly a striker rather than wasting money on keeper

The amount of shit people throw at Woj is disgusting. The man saved us countless times in the past 3 years and he cannot get away with a dip in form for 4-5 games?
The irony is the same people want to replace him with a dude who's been incredibly inconsistent for the past 3 years. The only advantage people keep mentioning when they try to compare Donnarumma to Szczesny is his young age, as if the goal is to just secure a keeper for the next 10 years regardless of his quality.

Up until 2021 arrived, Woj was a very reliable, consistent shot stopper for us. However saying he "saved us countless times" is stretching it a bit, he's not exactly the heroic kind of goalie, rarely will you see Woj making incredible saves that you wouldn't expect to be possible. I think that's where Donnarumma comes in, his ceiling is to be that Buffon type of goalie. With that said, I've grown allergic to Raiola and would happily bet on Woj, especially if we can reduce his ridiculous salary.
Sorry dude but "His ceiling is to be that Buffon type of goalie"? 
Donna is large enough to make saves others wouldn't be able to, he benched solid experienced goalies like Abbiatti (350+ games for Milan, Juventus, Torino and Atletico Madrid) and Lopez (350+ games for Villareal, Real Madrid, Milan and Espanyol) and hold on to his spot against Reina (500 games between Villareal, Liverpool and Milan) while he was still a teenager. Last season he won the Serie A goalkeeper of the year and this Friday he will debut in a major tournament with Italy. The potential is pretty obvious, don't you think? I have serious doubts if he'll fulfill it with someone like Raiola by his side (see Balotelli for worst case scenario), but surely we're talking about a generational talent when it comes to goalkeeping.

Also Buffon didn't have a 5 minute YouTube compilation worth of horrendous howlers by the time he reached 23 years old. Have you ever seen Donnarumma parry a shot any other way than central? He basically fails to impress at every aspect of goalkeeping basics from coming out for crosses, positioning awareness to ball distribution.
You can believe whatever you want about Donnarumma's potential but please don't bring Buffon's name into this. Other than number of caps at the same age, Donnarumma will never reach half of Buffon's quality on and off the pitch.
