• Delete - fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. GiantSnowman 12:34, 30 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - He has not played in a fully pro league or received significant coverage, meaning the article fails WP:NSPORT and WP:GNG. Sir Sputnik (talk) 17:22, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - Clearly notable. He has played for the senior team in a match. (see Real Madrid 0-0 AC Milan (pens 10-9) 16-year-old goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma misses decisive spot kick in friendly) --Racklever (talk) 09:47, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Friendlies don't count as professional appearances. Spiderone 13:34, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I have added a reference to the article to show it complies with WP:GNG. --Racklever (talk) 16:49, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Are there any other articles out there about him? I'm sure that one Daily Mail article isn't enough to pass WP:GNG although I will admit that I'm no expert. Spiderone 20:02, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Racklever: - the Daily Mail is not a RS and one source is insufficient for GNG. GiantSnowman 19:58, 4 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. Fails WP:NFOOTBALL because subject hasn't played in a fully professional league, and there's no evidence he's received enough non-trivial coverage in independent reliable sources to pass WP:BIO. All the Daily Mail piece says about Mr Donnarumma is that he's 16, he's a goalkeeper, and he missed a penalty in a shootout in a pre-season friendly, i.e. he exists and he's registered with a well-known club. That isn't even remotely significant coverage. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 18:38, 4 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Fails WP:NFOOTY. Playing in a friendly does not confer notability. Number 57 23:09, 4 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - fails GNG and NFOOTY -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 18:36, 5 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete: Fails WP:NFOOTY and WP:GNG, never played in a fully-professional league. MYS77 ^✉ 19:25, 5 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
