Chelsea ready to make first signing

Many London based papers are reporting today that Chelsea may be on the brink of their first summer signing, in youngster Gianluigi Donnarumma.

The 16-year-old is currently at AC Milan as an academy player, but is being watched by a host of top European clubs, including Real Madrid and Manchester United, as well as the Blues.

The goalkeeper is already being compared to his namesake, Gianluigi Buffon, while Milan boss Fillipo Inzaghi sees the youngster as a third choice next season.

Reports claim that Donnarumma is not being viewed as a replacement to Petr Cech, who is likely to leave Chelsea this summer.
