On the first day of 2026, AC Milan brought encouraging news that their main goalkeeper Maignan is close to renewing his contract. Latest updates from Italy’s well-known journalist Schira indicate that the talks between Maignan and AC Milan are going very well.
According to Schira, Maignan is near completing his contract extension with AC Milan, which would last until 2029, plus an option to extend by one more year until 2030. Maignan’s annual salary will see a significant increase, rising from the current net 2.8 million euros to 6 million euros, along with additional bonuses.
As previously exclusively revealed by Schira, AC Milan’s head coach Allegri and sporting director Maldini both regard the 30-year-old French goalkeeper Maignan as a core member of the team. Despite rumors linking Maignan with some top clubs in the big five leagues, the renewal talks between Maignan and AC Milan have been very friendly and smooth, making the extension almost certain.
The good news of AC Milan completing Maignan’s contract renewal is a boost for the club. As long as Maignan stays healthy, he is the best goalkeeper in Serie A and among the elite goalkeepers in the big five leagues, providing stability to Milan’s defensive line.
Maignan is currently 30 years old, with his existing contract running until the end of June 2026, which marks the conclusion of this season. His market value on Transfermarkt stands at 25 million euros.
