""Juventus is going through a difficult period sportingly. After a strong start with Spalletti in charge, the team has stalled in terms of results, both in the Champions League and in the league. One of the most important issues is certainly the goalkeeper, because Di Gregorio 's performance is causing controversy. However, I want to focus on two other names linked to Juventus. First, I can confirm that between November and December, Juventus contacted Mike Maignan.""
""They also offered him the possibility of earning a certain salary, which was only slightly higher than what he earns at AC Milan after his recent contract renewal. Juventus called Maignan's entourage and asked if they could sit down to discuss a future together. However, at that point, Maignan stalled, clearly stating that his priority was Milan. In fact, by stalling, he then made it clear to Juventus that their paths could not cross.""
During the summer window Chelsea attempted to sign Mike Maignan before the Club World Cup while his contract was due to expire in 2026, making an extension seem unlikely. Massimiliano Allegri, Igli Tare and Milan's staff engaged with Maignan and influenced his stance. A new contract was announced extending his deal to 2031 with a 30+1 structure and an option favoring Milan. Juventus contacted Maignan between November and December and offered a slightly higher salary and talks with his entourage, but Maignan stalled and prioritized staying at Milan. Juventus also faced goalkeeping concerns with Di Gregorio's performances causing controversy.
