AC Milan and Maignan Reach Verbal Agreement on Contract Extension

According to transfer expert reports, AC Milan has reached a verbal agreement with goalkeeper Mike Maignan to extend his contract until 2028. The new deal is expected to make Maignan one of the highest-paid players at the club.

Transfer specialist Matteo Moretto reports that Milan and Maignan have agreed in principle to a contract extension that would keep the French goalkeeper at the San Siro until 2028. The proposed deal would reportedly offer Maignan a base salary of around €5 million per season, putting him on par with top earners like Christian Pulisic and Theo Hernandez.

Maignan’s current contract is set to expire in 2026. By extending now, Milan aims to secure the long-term future of their first-choice goalkeeper and ward off potential interest from other clubs. The two parties are expected to meet again in the coming weeks to finalize the details of the new agreement.

This contract extension would represent a significant commitment from Milan to Maignan, who has established himself as one of the top goalkeepers in Serie A since joining from Lille in 2021. At 28 years old, Maignan is entering his prime years and Milan clearly view him as a cornerstone of their squad going forward.

While the verbal agreement is a positive step, fans will be eager to see the deal officially signed and announced. If completed as reported, it would be a major boost for Milan as they look to build a squad capable of challenging for domestic and European honors in the coming seasons.
