AC Milan goalkeeper Mike Maignan signs new deal to 2031

AC Milan secured the long-term future of Mike Maignan after the goalkeeper signed a new deal to 2031. Maignan had an immediate impact after joining Milan from Lille in 2021 to replace Gianluigi Donnarumma, who left to Paris Saint-Germain. The France international helped Milan win Serie A in his first season and was named Serie A goalkeeper of the season. ''(He) quickly established himself as one of the team's key figures, standing out for his leadership, reliability and selfless attitude,'' Milan said in a statement on Saturday. ''His constant growth saw him become club captain and a central presence within the squad, as well as a mainstay for the French national team.'' The 30-year-old Maignan has made 188 appearances for Milan. SSC SSC
