Owen Hargreaves<\/a> believes Manchester City<\/a> goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma<\/a> will eventually be regarded as the best Premier League<\/a> signing of the summer transfer window.<\/p>\n Despite his stellar performances in the Champions League last season, Paris<\/a> Saint-Germain opted to sell Donnarumma and sign Lucas Chevalier from Lille as their new first-choice goalkeeper<\/a>.<\/p>\n Both Chelsea and Manchester United passed up the chance to sign the Italy international, leaving the path clear for Manchester City to complete a \u00a326 million deal with PSG earlier this month.<\/p>\n The 26-year-old delivered an impressive display on his debut last weekend as City ran out 3-0 winners against United at the Etihad Stadium<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u2018Donnarumma is a huge plus to them, he could turn out to be the biggest transfer of anybody,\u2019 Hargreaves told Premier League Productions.<\/p>\n \t\t\t\tGet personalised updates on Manchester United every day\t\t\t<\/p>\n Wake up to find news on your club in your inbox every morning with Metro\u2019s Football Newsletter. <\/p>\n Sign up to our newsletter<\/a> and then select your team in the link so we can send you football news tailored to you. <\/p>\n \u2018I think he gives them stability in terms of those big moments, he can make saves. How he only cost \u00a326m I\u2019ll never know.<\/p>\n To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web \u2018At 26 years old he won the Champions League<\/a>, probably helped PSG<\/a> win the Champions League with the big saves he made in all those games.<\/p>\n \u2018I really believe that could be one of the biggest signings of any team.<\/p>\n \u2018You look at Pep, everyone says, \u2018he\u2019s not a Pep keeper because he\u2019s not great with his feet\u2019, he\u2019s good enough with his feet.<\/p>\n \u2018Everyone said Haaland wasn\u2019t a Pep striker but that\u2019s the cool think about Pep, Pep continues to evolve on what he needs.<\/p>\n \u2018He saw an option with the [James] Trafford situation not going his way, realised he had to do something and he did.<\/p>\n \u2018I think Donnarumma is one of the best without question. That save he made against Mbeumo at the Etihad, I don\u2019t think any other goalkeeper in the league outside Alisson makes that save.\u2019<\/p>\n For more stories like this,\u00a0check our sport page<\/a>.<\/p>\n Follow Metro Sport for the latest news on Arrow Arrow Arrow
