The relationship between Mike Maignan and Milan has cooled and needs to be clarified with a direct conversation. Maignan's future remains uncertain. After a disappointing end to the last season and an unfulfilling World Cup, the French goalkeeper has been at the center of attention for personal choices and a delayed return to Milanello from August 12 to 16. His social media profiles are almost deserted, with no images and no reference to football in his bio. However, the digital silence does not hide the rumors about his future. Maignan reportedly did not appreciate the radical change in Milan's technical structure, from the separation from Max Allegri and Igli Tare to the farewell of coach Claudio Filippi, with whom he had a very positive relationship.

Al Nassr is watching

Despite the contract renewal until 2031, with a total income of around 7 million euros including bonuses, the goalkeeper has started to evaluate new possibilities. Among these is the hypothesis of Al Nassr, which is looking for a new number one after Bento. Milan wants to avoid tension and trusts in the professionalism of the captain. Cardinale and Amorim will discuss his future in the next market meeting. The club wants to keep Maignan, but knows that convincing a dissatisfied player to stay could be counterproductive. A direct conversation will be decisive. If the will is not reciprocal, Milan could consider a transfer, but only in the face of an adequate offer, as reported by the Gazzetta dello Sport.
