"It was only earlier this season when Mike Maignan renewed his contract at AC Milan. However, that may not be a guarantee of him staying. When Maignan renewed his deal, it was after months of hard work. Milan had turned a corner and looked a threat for the Scudetto, let alone the Champions League places. Any thoughts of Maignan leaving were gradually disappearing and it seemed like there was a long future together."
"Since his renewal, things have turned. A Champions League spot is now in doubt and there is the suggestion that stars could be sold to balance the books. In that list of stars, Maignan's name would be found. Maignan and Chelsea flirt again It is not a one way street, though."
"According to Gazzetta dello Sport (via Calciomercato.com), the Frenchman could also consider a departure if the Rossoneri do not reach the Champions League for the second consecutive season. He, as the report states, is 'suffering from the current uncertainty' and is even looking at his own situation once again. To remain at the club, he must play Champions League football under Massimiliano Allegri."
"Both obligations must be fulfilled, if not, he may look for an exit and there is already interest. Chelsea, after failing to land the goalkeeper last summer, are back on his trail and they could make a bigger push this time around. They never left the scene and will consider making an enquiry shortly."
Mike Maignan renewed his contract with AC Milan earlier in the season, after months of progress that made the club look like a serious threat for the Scudetto and Champions League qualification. Since then, Milan’s position has worsened, with a Champions League spot now uncertain and suggestions that key players could be sold to balance the books. Maignan’s name is included among the potential departures. He could also consider leaving if Milan fail to reach the Champions League for a second consecutive season. He is said to be affected by the current uncertainty and would require Champions League football under Massimiliano Allegri to stay. If those conditions are not met, Chelsea could make a renewed move for him.
