Good news for the French team

While the worst was to be feared for Mike Maignan, the tests taken by the Milan goalkeeper were reassuring.

Didier Deschamps was left with quite a scare. And with him, the entire French team. Starting goalkeeper of the Blues since the retirement of Hugo Lloris, Mike Maignan injured a finger on Thursday during a training session with AC Milan two days before the reception of Salernitana at the occasion of the last day of Serie A.

The worst seemed to be feared for the former Lille player, who is just recovering from an adductor injury after missing the Rossoneri’s last four matches. But more fear than harm for Mike Maignan. The examinations subsequently undergone by the Guyanese revealed no fracture. The French number 1 therefore only suffers from a simple dislocation and his presence at the Euro is not called into question.

Will Mike Maignan be on the trip to Australia with Milan?

However, the Milanese has had to wear protection on his finger for a week, which will cause him to miss the last match of the season with the Lombard club. It remains to be seen whether this new physical problem will prevent him from going to Australia to play the friendly match against AS Roma scheduled for May 31 when the Blues will have already been meeting at Clairefontaine for a few days.

If the presence of Mike Maignan with the Blues is not called into question, as is that of Kingsley Coman, who got a big scare on Monday during training with Bayern Munich, the doubt persists in revenge concerning Aurélien Tchouameni, victim of a stress fracture in his foot two weeks ago. His package for the Champions League final, in eight days, is a given and Radio France explained at the start of the week that he will not be 100% before the end of the group stage.
