Will Mike Maignan leave AC Milan or stay until his contract expires, potentially following in the footsteps of the last great Milan goalkeeper? At this moment, it`s unknown. While contract renewal talks have stalled, perhaps definitively, no interested clubs have submitted offers considered acceptable for his profile. The idea is reportedly to receive around €25 million for him, a figure significantly lower than his valuation (quite a bit more) a year ago when negotiations for a possible extension were underway.
On the other hand, these were the words of Furlani after Chelsea`s intention to submit a proposal of around €20 million before the Club World Cup: “There was interest from an English club, it was not considered interesting [enough]. Mike is an important player for Milan and has been very correct, as has his agent: there was openness to this interest but at the same time there was no forcing from their side. The medium and long-term future will be judged by the results.”
With two months remaining in the transfer window, it`s difficult to predict what will happen with him. It`s likely that the London club could make another attempt in the coming weeks, as the idea of signing him was there and still is currently. Today, Mike Maignan turns 30 years old.
