Official: AC Milan announce Mike Maignan has renewed his contract until 2031

Mike Maignan has officially renewed his contract with AC Milan, signing a deal that will keep him at the club until 2031.

It had been in the works for many months, but now it’s official: Maignan’s contract has been renewed. After what looked like an impossible situation in the summer, Massimiliano Allegri and Igli Tare managed to mend the situation in recent months, getting the Frenchman back onboard.

At the end of December, Gazzetta dello Sport broke the news about a turning point in the negotiations. The reports before that were all rather pessimistic, but a hefty offer and an improvement on the pitch were enough for Maignan to be convinced.

Maignan renewal: Now it’s official

On their website, Milan published a statement announcing the renewal. The initial deadline will be 2031. The goalkeeper is expected to earn €5m plus €2m in bonuses (even if the salary wasn’t mentioned by the club).

“AC Milan is pleased to announce the renewal of Mike Maignan’s contract until June 30, 2031.

“Arriving in the Rossoneri in the summer of 2021, Mike immediately established himself as one of the reference points of the group, distinguishing himself for leadership, reliability and spirit of sacrifice, until he became Captain and central figure of the team.

”A constant growth that has also led him to become a pillar of the French national team.

”With the Rossoneri jersey, Maignan has collected 188 appearances and was among the protagonists of the conquest of the Scudetto in the 2021/22 season and the 2024 Italian Super Cup, goals of a personal path built over time with dedication, responsibility and a deep sense of belonging to the Rossoneri colors.

“On an individual level, he was elected the best goalkeeper in Serie A in the 2021/22 season.

“Milan and Mike Maignan thus strengthen their bond, with the aim of continuing to write new pages of Rossoneri history together.“

For the Rossoneri, this is undoubtedly huge news, especially when you consider just how good Maignan has been this evening. The stats certainly back that up, as the Frenchman has prevented the most goals out of any goalkeeper in the top five leagues.
