"Last night, the latest case of Mike Maignan being magic was displayed, and it comes with an unfortunate side effect for AC Milan. A massive penalty save that could define a season, Maignan was flawless last night, leading the team in every way. You are only as strong as your captain, and Maignan was phenomenal at San Siro on Sunday."
"A painfully brilliant reminder Whilst there is joy about his save and what it means in the immediate, and potentially further future, it also brought a bit of regret, again. As Gazzetta dello Sport write, every time Maignan is 'magic', the issue reappears. After the Gatti save against Juventus, then against Zappacosta in Bergamo, and now, after the penalty save against Paulo Dybala."
"The Rossoneri are left in awe, grateful for their French shot-stopper. However, awfully aware of the situation which they face. It is 'increasingly apparent' that his future lies away from the club, even if Massimiliano Allegri stated that he had no role in keeping him this summer. In two months, he can discuss a new home, and with the stalemate continuing at Casa Milan, it is difficult to imagine him at the club next season, at least for now. A deal was there, and the Diavolo stepped away. Now, they are left to sit with regret."
Maignan produced a massive penalty save that could define the season, leading AC Milan with flawless performance and captaincy. The save generated immediate joy and gratitude among teammates and fans, but also revived regret and concern about the club's situation. Previous critical saves against Gatti and Zappacosta similarly exposed the recurring issue that his future may lie away from the club. The squad acknowledges his value while contract negotiations remain stalled. In two months Maignan can negotiate a new club, and with Casa Milan unable to finalize terms, his presence at the club next season appears doubtful.
