The recent injury issue has not put AC Milan off as they are continuing negotiations over the renewal of Mike Maignan’s contract, a report claims.
Calciomercato.com confirms that Milan have started negotiations with Maignan’s agents to renew and his current contract which is expiring in June 2026, and there will of course be a pay rise as part of it.
The first contacts were more of a fact-finding mission than trying to get everything very quickly resolved. The parties have expressed mutual satisfaction and there is a desire to move forward together.
Milan want to extend Maignan’s contract until 2028, while his entourage are aiming for a salary of around €6m net per year (compared to the current €2.8m). The next meetings will be important with regards to economic details, but the negotiations have begun.
Having joined two years ago from Lille for €15.4m, the Frenchman is now a leader of the team who managed to ensure Gianluigi Donnarumma remains forgotten.
He is currently out with a thigh muscle injury and Pioli will not risk him in the midweek match at Cagliari, but he expects to have him back available for the match against Lazio on Saturday at San Siro.
So the 8-10M demand was false, lol what to excpect from GDS. 6M for him would be a bargain, he is the best GK in the world alongside Courtois.
I mean this is a cm news and is saying Milan wants to give around 6. Its not saying how much Mike wants.
Yeah, let’s take it with a grain of salt.
Extending his contract depreciation will be lower. So almost any sale in future means capital gain.
Speaking like a true Gerry boy
Yeah. Milanelo make comment paying by Gerry
Renew him but not higher than leao salary . I think 5m euro nett + bonus 1m euro are fair offer for him. If he still want salary 8-10m euro then it is time to find other GK option
Sell him, we have Sportiello, use the money for Scalvini and Ricci, sorts out defence and midfield, anything left we can get Baldanzi as a bonus
Its good to take a tough stance on wages, but there are exceptions. We have the best gk in the world, pay him what he deserves. He is FUNDAMENTAL to our success ,arguably more so than any other player.
Possibly controversially, the only deal I’d like to see if we had to sell him would be with PSG. Donamaruna plus cash. I’d take that, issues with wages aside.
