How Milan plan to replace Mike Maignan if Frenchman leaves

Serie A side Milan are facing the possibility of losing Mike Maignan but are prepared to find the right players in the summer.

Get Italian Football News have looked at how the keeper is considering his future at the Rossoneri. He isnโ€™t happy with how last season went and is waiting for the World Cup to end before he makes a final decision.

Daniele Longo has now reported that Maignanโ€™s agent is exploring the market for the best possible solution. This has already alerted Milan, who have a shortlist of possible replacements.

Freiburgโ€™s Noah Atubola has impressed the clubโ€™s scouts quite a bit and Cagliariโ€™s Elia Caprile has also made a positive impression. The Germanโ€™s current deal runs out in 2027 and the Bundesliga side have already replaced him, which is another sign that Milan could execute a move.

It is still in evaluation phase but the situation can grow in the next few weeks.

Wise decision by Milan

This is quite wise from Milan, especially as replacing a player of Maignanโ€™s abilities wonโ€™t be easy. They would ideally want a younger option who proved himself at the highest level, which is what the France international himself had done at Lille.

Both Atubolu and Caprile fit the bill, with the Italian specifically having made a mark in Serie A. He has also grown as a leader and definitely wonโ€™t mind a big move.
