Former Milan coach Fabio Capello said Gianluigi Donnarumma’s farewell ‘hurts more’ than Romelu Lukaku leaving Inter. ‘He didn’t bring a euro to the club’.
Two big profiles have left the fashion capital this summer, as Inter’s leading goalscorer in 2020-21, Lukaku, left the Nerazzurri and Italy international Donnarumma moved away from the Rossoneri.
Lukaku was brought back to Chelsea for €115m and Capello said the Belgian leaving thus hurts less than Donnarumma joining Paris Saint-Germain on a free transfer.
The 22-year-old goalkeeper waited until his contract with the Diavolo expired in June before joining the Ligue 1 giants after becoming European champion with Italy.
“Lukaku’s farewell with Inter, technically weighs as much as Donnarumma leaving Milan,” Capello told La Repubblica.
“But Gigio didn’t bring a euro to the club, so it hurts more. The gratitude for those who raised you, helping your family, is due.”
