Monza GM Adriano Galliani has rejected criticism of PSG goalkeeper Gigio Donnarumma.

Galliani originally signed the Italy No1 for AC Milan.

He recalled: "Mauro Bianchessi one day came to my office telling me that he was the strongest ever but he was about to sign with Inter.

"I managed to bring him to us at Milan at the age of 14.

"At 16 he made his debut in Serie A and in the European Championship we won he was elected as the best player of the tournament, not as the best goalkeeper.

"Then unfortunately the memory in football is short."
