Before the match against Sassuolo, which ended in a draw (2-2), AC Milan sporting director Igli Tare took stock of the situation of French goalkeeper Mike Maignan. “We never talked about numbers. Talking about Maignan is easy: he is an extraordinary boy, a leader, a group man. We are happy. He likes being here and AC Milan will be happy if Mike extends. »he said about a possible extension, before specifying: “We are in discussions, but today there is an important match and we hope to win. Then we will have the opportunity to talk about this topic. »

The Albanian leader then spoke about the offensive needs of the Rossoneri, deprived of Rafael Leão and Santiago Giménez: “the January transfer window is very difficult to find players capable of changing something. We will remain attentive and, if anything can improve the situation of this team, we will do it. But for the moment, the team is making progress. Nkunku, during the second half against Torino, gave important signals. Against Sassuolo, it’s a great opportunity for him to show the real Nkunku we’ve all been waiting for. Gimenez has this physical problem, we are waiting for it. He is also important for this team. » The Italian club will have to provide the necessary means to meet the colossal demands of the French goalkeeper.
