The goalkeeper left boyhood club Milan as a free agent over the summer to join Paris Saint-Germain, having refused a new and lucrative contract to remain with the Rossoneri.

This infuriated Milan supporters and he had asked in interviews over the last few days for there to be no jeers during his Italy performance at San Siro.

The moment he came out onto the pitch for his warm-up with the other Italy goalkeepers in the squad, there were some audible jeers and whistles from the crowd.

However, when the rest of the squad emerged for their part of the warm-up, it was all cheers at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza.

Several people in the stands are wearing Milan jerseys, even though Italy are playing against Spain this evening.

There were also images outside of people with signs showing Donnarumma’s face crossed out by a ‘forbidden’ sign, warning he was ‘not welcome here.’

The arena is only at 50 per cent capacity due to COVID restrictions.
