Donnarumma has been kept out of the squad by a significant presence of South American footballers, as per Il Corriere della Sera via Football Italia.
Manager Mauricio Pochettino is defined as a 'equilibrist,' making decisions based on the wishes of his players.
"We had a really excellent match today," he stated after Saturday's 2-0 success against Montpellier, which Navas began. We had a great team. I am quite pleased with the youngsters' performance. We had several opportunities to win the game, and we did not. Never once did I suffer.
Goalkeeper dualism? I've often said, and I have to say it again. I select whether Navas & Donnarumma shall perform before each game.
But, Donnarumma is already been linked with a return to Italy.
The 22-year-old has reportedly piqued the interest of Juventus, who are looking to revamp their team.

Another problem Pochettino might have to deal with is the simmering rivalry among Neymar & Kylian Mbappe.
Mbappe was seen moaning to Idrissa Gueye about the Brazilian, who has since assisted Julian Draxler, in photos from Saturday's triumph.
"He (Neymar) doesn't really provide me the pass," Kylian Mbappe said RMC Sport.
