Maignan will undergo surgery tomorrow (Wednesday) as he’s suffering from wrist pain and only afterwards will we know the full extent. However, it’s been established that he will miss at least 10-15 days.
Milan have Ciprian Tatarusanu as their backup goalkeeper but the Romanian hasn’t exactly impressed loads with the red and black shirt. Therefore, Milan are in talks with the entourage of Mirante, who is currently a free agent.
The 38-year-old played for Roma last season and the negotiations are over a one-year deal, with the option to extend it for one more year, per MilanNews. Given the time sensitivity, it’s possible that we could see this deal materialise in the next few days.
