The year ends as it began for Mike Maignan, and it’s unfortunate. Friday evening, the French goalkeeper complained again about having been the target of racist insults from supporters of Hellas Verona (0-1).
Last January, Maignan was already the victim of the stupidity of opposing supporters during AC Milan’s trip to Udinese. The former Lille player briefly left the field to mark the occasion.
He then received a strong wave of support, like the message posted by Kylian Mbappé. “You are very far from being alone Mike Maignan. We are all with you. Still the same problems and still NO solution. Enough is enough!!!!!!!!!!!! “, had railed the captain of the France team, who shouted his anger loudly: “NO TO RACISM”.
Maignan supported by AC Milan
This time, Maignan’s distress was less visible, since the Milan goalkeeper simply came to complain to the match referee, just after the final whistle. This Saturday morning, AC Milan posted a message of support for their player, once again calling for an end to racism.
