Chelsea are keen on acquiring the services of the 28-year-old AC Milan shot-stopper Mike Maignan in the summer.
According to a report by Fichajes, Chelsea are keen on reinforcing the goalkeeping position in the summer transfer window and they have their eyes set on AC Milan’s Mike Maignan. The 28-year-old French international is one of the best shot-stoppers in the world and the Blues feel he could play a pivotal role in their revival.
Maignan’s time at AC Milan
Things might not have worked out for Maignan at PSG but he did manage to revive himself at LOSC Lille. On the back of his impressive performances, AC Milan acquired his services in the summer of 2021. The French shot-stopper has taken his game to another level during his time at the Italian club.
The 28-year-old played a pivotal in their Serie A winning campaign and has been a consistent performer for Milan over the years. In the ongoing season, he has featured in 42 games and has kept 15 clean sheets.
While his contract with the Italian giants runs until the summer of 2026, he could still be on the move in the upcoming transfer window given the amount of interest in his services. Chelsea are one of the clubs that are interested in signing the French international and they could push hard for his signatures.
The Blues are planning to make major changes to their squad in the summer after another disappointing season. They are looking to give their manager Mauricio Pochettino more world-class options in order to ensure they bounce back next season.
Chelsea keen on signing Robert Sanchez
They are desperately looking for a new goalkeeper despite having signed Robert Sanchez last summer from Brighton. The 26-year-old hasn’t lived up to the expectations and reports suggest they could even look to part ways with him.
Chelsea want someone more reliable in goal and are interested in having Maignan at their disposal. They have been interested in the 28-year-old’s services for a while now and could finally push for him in the upcoming transfer window.
The AC Milan shot-stopper is at the top of their wishlist. His arrival will be a big boost for the team as a whole and it will surely add a top of strength to their defence.
