Raiola: Donnarumma is worth €170 million

The 16-year-old goalkeeper has usurped Diego Lopez as AC Milan's new No.1 and is now being tipped for superstardom

Super-agent Mino Raiola says AC Milan sensation Gianluigi Donnarumma is already worth 170 million euros ($180 million).

"I'd compare him to a [piece by Italian artist Amadeo] Modigliani," the teenager's representative told Mediaset Premium. "He's worth 170 million."

Donnarumma is just 16 years of age yet is already earning comparisons with Italy and Juventus goalkeeping icon Gianluigi Buffon after displacing Diego Lopez as the Rossoneri's first-choice shot-stopper this season.
