"Maignan is proving on the pitch to be among the top goalkeepers in terms of technical quality, not just in Serie A but across all of Europe. He decided the derby with some very crucial saves, especially that one on Calhanoglu's penalty,"
"Maignan is going through a very particular contractual situation. I'd like to tell you the whole truth about what happened between Milan and Maignan regarding the contract renewal."
"The premise is that Maignan has a contract expiring in June, and Milan risks losing him for free starting in 2026. From February, a player whose contract is expiring can already sign with another team, but verbal agreements can certainly be reached much earlier."
"I'd say Milan started negotiating in a serious and in-depth way - fostering contacts and meetings with Maignan's agent - as early as September 2024, putting together a draft agreement. Milan already intended back then to renew Maignan's contract and verbally proposed a renewal with significant figures, making Maignan one of the highest-paid in the squad"
Mike Maignan delivered crucial saves, including a penalty stop, to secure Milan's derby victory. Maignan's contract expires in June, creating a risk that Milan could lose him for free starting in 2026. Formal negotiations and a draft proposal began around September 2024, with Milan verbally offering significant terms intended to make Maignan one of the highest-paid players. Rules allow a player with a contract expiring to sign elsewhere from February, increasing urgency. Talks have not yet concluded, and Milan reportedly plan further efforts to convince Maignan to renew.
