AC Milan: Maignan’s Recovery Progress and Team’s Upcoming Challenges
Recent updates on AC Milan’s goalkeeper Mike Maignan bring relief to the club’s supporters. Following a CT scan at a Milan clinic, it has been confirmed that the French keeper suffered no serious consequences from his collision with Jimenez during the Udinese match. However, Maignan will need to observe additional days of rest to ensure full recovery.
The Rossoneri are optimistic about Maignan’s availability for the crucial upcoming match against Atalanta, which is pivotal for European qualification. The final decision will depend on his condition in the coming days, with coach Conceicao weighing the risks of playing Maignan against the need to rest him for the Coppa Italia semi-final return leg against Inter.
AC Milan, currently ninth in Serie A with 51 points, faces a challenging end to the season as they pursue continental competition qualification. After the Atalanta fixture and the Coppa Italia clash with Inter, Milan’s remaining league matches include encounters with Venezia, Genoa, Bologna, Roma, and Monza.
The team’s performance in these final matches will be crucial in determining their European fate for the next season, making Maignan’s recovery and return to the squad all the more important.
