Mike Maignan should be one of Didier Deschamps' reference points for France in the upcoming European Championship in Germany. The Milan goalkeeper, however, is grappling with an injury that is causing concern in France, not so much for the timing but more for the certainties.
The low-grade injury to his right long adductor detected after an MRI scan, in fact, suggests a possible return to the field against Torino, on the weekend of May 18-19. However, the newspaper L'Equipe dedicates a page to the Rossoneri goalkeeper, emphasizing how unlikely it is for him to be present in the first days of the national team's training camp due to Milan's end-of-season tour in Australia, lasting four days.
He, Theo Hernandez, and Olivier Giroud will not be able to return earlier and will hardly be available on June 3. Would it be beneficial for him not to have a break or some rest before the competition? This is the question being asked in France, because the national team will need a great Maignan. "But before being great, he must be fit."
