Donnarumma FC 28 Review — The Giant Between the Posts
6'5" of pure goalkeeping dominance. Donnarumma's height is a cheat code in FC 28. He reaches shots other keepers can't, makes the goal feel smaller, and his Ligue 1 + Italy links fit perfectly into competitive squads.

In-Game Performance
Strengths
- Height (6'5"): The key advantage — reaches top-corner finesse shots that shorter GKs miss
- Reflexes (90): Best reflexes of any gold GK — reaction saves are incredible
- Diving (88): Full-stretch saves look spectacular and happen regularly
- Size presence: Makes the goal look smaller — opponents panic and rush shots
- Ligue 1 links: Marquinhos, Hakimi — strong defensive partnerships
Weaknesses
- Handling (82): Spills shots more often than Alisson — rebounds are risky
- Kicking (78): Distribution isn't great — risky passes from goal kicks
- Speed (42): Very slow coming off the line — long through-balls can beat him
- Low shots: His height actually works against him for low-driven shots near the post

Best Chemistry Styles
| Chem Style | Boosts | When to Use |
|---|---|---|
| Glove | Diving + Handling + Positioning | Best overall — fixes handling weakness |
| Cat | Reflexes + Speed + Positioning | If you want him rushing out more |
| Basic | All stats (small) | Balanced — popular among pros |
Our pick: Glove. Shores up handling while boosting already-good diving and positioning. Makes him more complete.
Final Verdict
Rating: 8.5/10
Donnarumma's height makes him arguably the best gold GK in FC 28 for competitive play. The 6'5" frame saves shots that 6'3" keepers physically cannot reach. His reflexes are the best of any gold GK. The handling and kicking need work, but for pure shot-stopping, nobody does it better. Essential for Ligue 1 or Italian squads.
