Rossoneri Round-up for 4 September: Donnarumma: Goal is to get Milan ‘back where it deserves’

Gianluigi Donnarumma spoke to Sky Sports before joining up with the Italy squad before the Italy national team. And while he spoke about duty for the Azzurri, he also spoke about Milan’s win over Roma.

Donnarumma said:

We are a great group, we wanted to win against Roma, we all looked for it, it was a great feeling, our goal is to bring Milan back where it deserves, that is in the Champions League and we will do everything to achieve that. It was really exciting to see Leonardo, Maldini and Kaka together, they put you in a bit of awe, they fuel you to get Milan back up.
