At the Ballon d'Or awards ceremony, Donnarumma was asked if he had wanted to stay at PSG. He replied, "Yes, when you go through many positive experiences and spend a lot of time with great friends, it's difficult to leave." Donnarumma received the Yashin trophy for best goalkeeper of the season.

Donnarumma has since settled into his new role at Manchester City, where he has signed a five-year contract. According to reports, City paid £30 million for the goalkeeper.

Donnarumma expressed his appreciation for Manchester City, stating, "I've found an extraordinary club with extraordinary players who welcome me like family. This is important to me." However, he also acknowledged the difficulty of changing teams and the strong bond he had formed with PSG.

Donnarumma explained, "I had found an extraordinary team at PSG, with great supporters, players, staff, coaches, and a president. That's why I wanted to stay."
