"Of course, Magic Mike, I don't want to steal him from AC Milan, but the guy is world-class. He is so talented, I saw him playing in France and following him in Italy. I mean, the guy is a pure talent. He is a cat, I call him a cat, he can jump and catch the ball like crazy. And he is a leader."
"They were expected to sign the 30-year-old French international during the summer transfer window, but the move did not work out. The links have resurfaced again ahead of the January window, and it will be interesting to see if Chelsea decides to make a move for him. The player will be out of contract at the end of the season, and he seems unlikely to sign a new contract with AC Milan."
Chelsea have been linked with a move for AC Milan goalkeeper Mike Maignan, with interest first reported in the summer and resurfacing ahead of the January window. Maignan will be out of contract at season's end and appears unlikely to sign a new deal with AC Milan, making a free transfer possible. Chelsea are dissatisfied with Robert Sanchez's performances and seek a replacement. Maignan is regarded as one of the world's best goalkeepers, offering superior shot-stopping, ball skills, experience and leadership. Signing him on a free would significantly upgrade Chelsea's goalkeeping and provide valuable dressing-room leadership.
