In an interview with Gazzetta dello Sport, Italian goalkeeper Donnarumma talked about AC Milan, Guardiola and some topics about the Serie A league.

Which team is most likely to win the Serie A title this season?

Donnarumma: "I like AC Milan, and I am curious about all the changes behind this club. I thought of Allegri, but not just him."

Is Milan expected to win the championship?

Donnarumma: "Milan has great ambitions. I've talked to people who understand the Rossoneri's environment: they believe in themselves and they are doing the right things."

What about other teams?

Donnarumma: "The strength of Inter Milan lies in their already well-integrated team and the experience they have accumulated recently; Naples is full of energy and has excellent skills under the leadership of Conte; Gasperini's New Roma still has a lot of room for improvement; Juventus is also worthy of attention. In short, this will be a wonderful contest."

About the transfer to Manchester City

Donnarumma: "In Manchester City, I feel like at home, although I Just transferred not long ago. They wanted me firmly, made me feel important, and now they see me as one of their own..."

On Guardiola

Where's Gattuso?

Donnarumma: "Gattuso makes you feel his presence all the time, as if he is always behind you. Our head coach likes dialogue, he communicates with us often and explains everything: he quickly allows us to regain a strong sense of collective identity."

Can Gattuso lead Italy to the World Cup?

Donnaruma: "The word play-offs will not scare us, nor will it affect us."

This Italian team has a good atmosphere.

Donnarumma: "In this new Italian team, the team atmosphere is really good and very united. I can definitely say that we are very happy together and very harmonious with each other."
