The name of Mike Maignan, the goalkeeper of the Italian club "Milan", has once again appeared in the transfer plans of the English club "Chelsea". The London representative is preparing to renew their interest in the French goalkeeper after a failed attempt in the summer.
Idman.Biz reports with reference to "La Gazzetta dello Sport" that "Chelsea" is currently evaluating options for the goalkeeper position, and Maignan maintains his status as an irreplaceable main goalkeeper in "Milan". However, the 30-year-old football player's contract, which is valid until June 2026, creates uncertainty about his future.
The management of "Milan" does not want to repeat the scenario of Canluigi Donnarumma leaving the club as a free agent.
The source notes that negotiations on extending the contract between the parties have been tense. Initial discussions did not yield positive results, and "Milan" did not agree to Maignan's salary demand of 5 million euros (approximately 9.25 million AZN) per season. However, the "rossoneri" are determined to sign a long-term new contract with the goalkeeper.
Against the background of the lack of an agreement so far, "Milan" is also working on alternative plans and has started monitoring possible replacements if Maignan decides to move to another club. The Brazilian goalkeeper Alisson Becker is reported to be the main option.
