CM: Milan have an August plan for Maignan after Chelsea’s failed attempt

There is no doubting that Mike Maignan is one of the most important players in the AC Milan squad at present and the club are planning a move to recognise that.

Calciomercato.com report that Chelsea came knocking to try and sign Maignan which was actually not much of a surprise to the club given how decisive he has been, but Milan made it clear that a negotiation would not be opened for less than €100m.

That amount has not yet been forthcoming from any side who are keen, while Milan are planning a move of their own and they want to discuss the renewal of the Frenchman’s contract during the month of August.

Giorgio Furlani and Geoffrey Moncada absolutely want to secure and reward one of the strongest players in the squad. Within 10/15 days Furlani is planning a first discussion with Maignan’s agent to start concrete negotiations.

The goal is to extend the current agreement expiring in 2026 by one or two seasons, showing the strength of the project and improving the current salary of €2.8m net per season.
