Neville discussed Donnarumma on his Sky Sports podcast, highlighting the Italian international's exceptional skills and physical presence in goal.
Donnarumma, who signed with Manchester City in the summer transfer window, conceded his first goal for the team in a recent match against Arsenal, but Neville believes he has the potential to become a top Premier League goalkeeper.
Neville credits Donnarumma's height as a significant factor in his success, saying it makes opposing attackers think twice before shooting on goal.
"He's a big goalkeeper, and when he comes for a ball, it makes attackers think twice because they know they'll get hit hard if he comes and hits them," Neville said.
Neville also praised Donnarumma's technical skills, saying he's good at making saves, dominating the box, and being positive in his actions.
"He's a fantastic goalkeeper, and I love watching him play," Neville said. "He's the type of goalkeeper I've always enjoyed watching, like Alisson at Liverpool and David Raya."
Neville believes Donnarumma's impressive skills and experience, including winning the Champions League and Euro 2020 with Italy, make him a valuable player for Manchester City.
As Donnarumma continues to perform well, Neville's praise may be justified, even if he's still early in his Premier League career.
