A couple of shot-stoppers have been offered to the Rossoneri, but the club didn’t want to discuss them in detail, so it’s not even worth naming them.
Maignan’s Milan extension: latest updates
Milan are stitching back together the rift from several months ago, when renewal talks collapsed due to some back-and-forth over figures.
At that stage, the debate was tied to a dip in performance from the France international and Maignan’s camp didn’t take it well.
As the goalkeeper has demonstrated in the first months of the season, there’s little to argue about regarding his quality.
Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri is adopting the same strategy he used with Adrien Rabiot a few months back, when the Italian convinced the midfielder to move to San Siro from Marseille.
As long as Milan have a chance to renew with Maignan, they will not delve deeper into discussions with possible alternatives.
