Mike Maignan has surely come back stronger from the injury which he picked up earlier this season. He is the Milanese wall that Pioli relies on. The Frenchman definitely adds a layer of security and confidence to his teammates.
Italian journalist, Carlo Pellegatti reports - on his own YouTube channel - a rumour related to the French goalkeeper and a supposed interest in him:
"There is news coming from England, with Newcastle ready to spend between 113 and 169 million euros in the upcoming transfer window. There is a rumor that the Magpies want to invest 60 million in Mike Maignan. They will knock on the door, like other international clubs, but they won't receive anything. They'll read 'do not disturb' or 'we're out.' The door will be firmly closed, without doubts or uncertainties... After July 1st, Maignan will receive a salary increase to five million euros. If Alisson cost around 80 million... Maignan is a goalkeeper of absolute modernity. He's a charismatic player who talks to the executives and makes suggestions. He's an extraordinary character."
