Milan fans unfurled a banner in the San Siro this week that read: 'psychological violence by giving you €6million-a-season and signing your parasite brother? It's time to leave... our patience with you is over!'

Donnarumma posted on Instagram on Friday: "It was a bad night, and I didn't see it coming.

"I never said that I had any moral violence when I signed the contract. Despite everything I look forward and head to the next game. Forza Milan!"
