This morning’s edition of Corriere della Sera (via PianetaMilan) speaks about the rumours that Maignan has no intention of renewing his contract with Milan – expiring on 30 June 2026 – after Paolo Maldini’s exit.
Manchester United and Chelsea are the teams keen on signing the France international above all given that both are looking for a starting goalkeeper this summer, but the Rossoneri have made it clear they have no interest in selling.
However, if Maignan were to force his hand and ask to leave then the management have already set the price for his sale, and it is a rather steep €100m.
There is no doubting the importance that the 27-year-old has at Milan given that he is more than just an excellent goalkeeper. He is the first playmaker in the team, he is a leader on the field and in the dressing room too, so the asking price reflects that.
