Some research:
Looking at various serie A forums.
People think he's a good kid and a very good shot stopper. He's rated by many to be one of the best keepers in serie A. And one that quite regularly pulls off extraordinary saves and performances. While his career in serie A is short he also played at a consistently high level in serie B. And has gone strength to strength.
Inter fans question how good he is with the ball. Mostly because of how good onana is. The consensus seems to be, not good not bad but he could improve.
Others do point out he does have a tendency to push the ball out into dangerous areas. But this is a weakness that can be mitigated and not a major worry.
Some Juventus fans have concerns that there is a difference between playing for weaker teams and top teams and some can look good only to fail at the top. Obviously this is always a risk (though I would argue particularly with keepers known for shot stopping but for another time).
Milan fans also think he is a traditional goalkeeper not a modern sweeper, but he could improve in these aspects and rate him highly. Most see it as he will inevitably be given a chance in a top team, and you never know but it's the next move.
Interestingly, the keeper all the fan bases seem most excited about is a 22 year old called Carnesecchi (funny name, literally translated to something like dried meats though not quite grammatically correct) . Who is currently playing in serie B though owned by atalanta. So a name to keep an eye on. But outside the top teams it is the two are considered the next up and coming keepers due a big break.
Anyway, to round up, this doesn't seem like an outrageous signing. He is more a shotstopper but it doesnt seem like he'd be awful with his passing to a level where he couldnt do it at all. He's young for a goalkeeper and a step up is considered inevitable. It might as well be to us.
