End of the story. Maignan extends contract with Milan

Milan is on the verge of officially announcing Mike Maignan's contract extension, although all formalities were settled earlier today. The French goalkeeper has signed a new deal that will keep him at the club until June 2030, with an option to extend for another season—through the summer of 2031.

According to Football Italia, under the terms of the agreement, the 30-year-old shot-stopper will become one of the club's highest-paid players alongside Rafael Leão. His salary will be around 5 million euros per year, with up to 2 million more available in performance-related bonuses.

Let's recall, earlier this summer, Maignan's future was shrouded in uncertainty. His previous contract was set to expire at the end of the season, attracting intense interest from Europe's elite clubs—Chelsea, Barcelona, and Manchester United were all reportedly keen to sign the French international on a free transfer.
