Mike Maignan’s future has been heavily debated in the last months or so, with some reports suggesting a sale could be on the cards and others talking about a renewal. According to the latest updates, the latter is the most likely outcome
Maignan arrived at Milan in 2021 to replace Gigio Donnarumma, signing a deal until 2026, and he’s yet to be rewarded with a contract renewal. A pay rise is long overdue, especially if you look at the rest of the wage bill, and the goalkeeper’s career is now at a crossroads.
According to today’s edition of Gazzetta dello Sport (see photo below), negotiations are ongoing between Milan and Maignan over a renewal. New contacts took place recently and the parties have reached an advanced point, resulting in ‘more optimism’.
The negotiations are more advanced than those with Theo Hernandez, the newspaper adds, and Milan are now preparing an official offer. It’s possible that he could reach the levels of Rafael Leao, i.e. around €5m, which would be a significant pay rise considering the current €2.8m salary.
Having said all of those, as the newspaper concludes, Maignan is obsessed with winning and will also assess the situation at Milan before making his final decision.
Grant him a renewer contract he deserve it
He absolutely deserved more.
2.8mil /yr is a joke contract for a player of his level and leader.
Deserves double of that
The management will offer 5 million a year for a world class goalkeeper? This management is a complete joke!
I think people honestly have no idea what salaries professional players have. They see a handful of superstar bag 20M met and think that everyone has (or should have) salaries in the same range as those 0.01%..
Ridiculous.
He signed the 2.8M contract in 2019 when he wasn’t 🇫🇷 #1, he wasn’t a “proven winner ”
Wtf yall get to be offended on some millionaires behalf?
Ridiculous!
Best part of it is, they’re gonna whine how players aren’t paid enough for their lvls then whine on the others side when ticket prices go up…
So it means we and he should be okay for a player of his caliber to be with such current pay. That’s a great counter argument. Why don’t we table that to Mike and see if he agrees, or better still let him leave and see how we leak even more goals.
That’s some mental gymnastics going on right there.
everything i wrote went right over your head, didnt it?
