CM: At least €20m – Milan must cough up funds to replace Maignan in summer

Ahead of the summer mercato, it seems that two goalkeepers are taking AC Milan’s interest currently, with Mike Maignan likely to leave.

There has been no shortage of goalkeepers linked to Milan in recent months, and whilst Maignan edges closer to the door, that number should only increase. The Rossoneri have their parameters set, and at present, it seems two choices are leading the way.

Those are Noah Atoubolu and Elia Caprile, with both ticking several required boxes.

Their situations

According to Calciomercato.com, Atubolu is valued at around €20 million, which feels rather cheap for a goalkeeper with his potential in the current market. However, considering he is not playing for the biggest club in Germany, it is certainly feasible.

To add to this, his contract expires in the summer of 2027, so his value is only decreasing as time passes, which is worth considering.

Closer to home, Calciomercato.com reports that Caprile could be worth as little as €25m, which, although more, is not a bad price for a proven goalkeeper in Italy, who also would help with registration rules.

There is no denying that both are fairly significant prices for goalkeepers. However, paying this price now could save millions in the future. The Rossoneri may need to be bold in the summer, if not sooner.
