Manchester City has signed goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma from Paris Saint-Germain, the Premier League club confirmed on Tuesday.
The 26-year-old Italian has penned a five-year deal, with Ederson ending his eight-year stint at the club with a move to Fenerbahce.
“To have signed for Manchester City is such a special and proud moment for me,” said Donnarumma.
“I am joining a squad packed with world-class talent and a team led by one of the greatest managers in the history of football in Pep Guardiola. This is a club every player in world football would love to join. I have admired watching Manchester City for many years – so to now be able to play for the Club is a huge honour and a privilege,” he added.

On the international level, he helped Italy lift the EURO 2020 title, showcasing his shot-stopping ability in the dramatic penalty shoot-out win against England in the final. His heroics throughout the competition also earned him the Player of the Tournament award.
