Mike Maignan continues to build a wall between the posts of the Rossoneri goal. With his latest performance without conceding a goal, the French goalkeeper has collected his twelfth clean sheet in this championship. A statistic that testifies to his reliability and his fundamental contribution to Milan's defensive solidity.
This is another "zero" conceded allows Maignan to reach two talented colleagues, Yann Sommer of Inter and Marco Carnesecchi of Atalanta, in the special ranking of unbeaten goalkeepers. Ahead of him this season, only Mile Svilar of Roma (leader with 14 clean sheets), Alex Meret of Napoli, and Michele Di Gregorio of Monza, both with 13, remain.
Maignan’s consistent performances are a crucial factor for Milan, especially at a delicate moment of the season when every point won can make the difference. His ability to neutralize opposing offensives and to instill confidence in the defensive line is a precious weapon for coach Conceição's team.
If on the one hand, the top of this particular ranking is still within reach, on the other hand, Maignan’s placement among the best goalkeepers of the championship for clean sheets confirms his undeniable value. A modern goalkeeper, reactive between the posts and also skilled with his feet, he has now become an indispensable pillar for Milan’s present and future. The chase toward the top spot occupied by Svilar, Meret, and Di Gregorio is officially on, with the hope that Maignan can add more "zeros" to his already remarkable collection, as pointed out by PianetaMilan.it.
