Real Madrid and Galatasaray are reportedly monitoring Manchester City goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma following the club’s guilty verdict.
Donnarumma only joined City in 2025, but uncertainty over potential sanctions has sparked speculation that he could become available. Real Madrid reportedly see the 27-year-old as a possible long-term replacement for Thibaut Courtois, while Galatasaray are also keeping tabs on his situation.
However, City have made no decision on player sales as they focus on their appeal and await the eventual punishment.
