# Steve Nicol claims Donnarumma would be good for Liverpool

Liverpool legend Steve Nicol has said that AC Milan goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma would be a good signing for the club.

Nicol claims that Donnarumma would be a good signing for the next decade, with the shot-stopper still in his teens.

The Italian international only recently turned 19 and has already played 114 games for Milan at senior level.

He has also been capped five times by Italy as he prepares to replace Gianluigi Buffon as his country’s number one.

[As quoted by Goal,](https://www.goal.com/en/news/donnarumma-to-liverpool-milan-star-perfect-option-for-next/bm0h05leqa0o1cdq0g0uvoe6c) Nicol said this:

> I would have no problem with him \[Roma keeper Alisson\], I would have no problem if they can get the likes of Donnarumma who would be a goalkeeper for the next decade.

Donnarumma looks set to hit 100 Serie A matches before the end of the season, so he has the experience to come in and start at Liverpool.

Simon Mignolet and Loris Karius have both failed to nail down a starting position with authority over the past two seasons, with a new goalkeeper expected to come in this summer.
