Gianluigi Donnarumma has completed a remarkable U-turn by agreeing to sign a new AC Milan contract, according to Sky sources.

The 18-year-old goalkeeper has 12 months left on his deal and three weeks ago his agent, Mino Raiola, told Milan his client would not be signing a new contract - with Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain interested in signing him.

After more talks - and the furious reaction of Milan fans - Donnarumma has had a change of heart.

He has agreed to sign a new deal which will make him one of the best paid players in Italy, on £100,000 a week.
