MN: Maignan’s Milan renewal discussions progressing ‘positively’

In recent weeks, speculation regarding the supposed high salary that Mike Maignan was requesting has been rife. However, today, a report has revealed that AC Milan are confident, and talks are progressing nicely. 

In November, it emerged that the goalkeeper had a figure of €8million per year in mind for his next Milan contract. However, MilanNews have today revealed that the figures requested by the Frenchman are similar to what the Rossoneri had imagined.

It is no secret that both the Diavolo and Maignan want to continue together. The shot-stopper revealed his position in a press conference before the 2-1 win against Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League.

Are you already talking to the club about staying for many more years?

“I like being here. We haven’t started talking because I think it’s not the ideal moment for both me and the club.”

In the eyes of the club, they would like to offer him a deal which accurately reflects his importance to the club. Not only is he one of the leaders in the world in his position, but he is also a key figure in the dressing room, an indispensable trait.
