Chelsea are considering a move for AC Milan goalie Mike Maignan.
According to Sky Sports, Chelsea are interested in LOSC Lille goalkeeper Mike Maignan, who could be available for a transfer fee of around €30m this summer.
The 25-year-old Maignan came through the youth ranks at PSG before making the switch to Lille in 2015 in search of regular game time. Over the past couple of years, he has developed into one of the best goalkeepers in France, becoming a key player for Lille.
Till date, he has featured 133 times for the French club, keeping 42 clean sheets, 13 of which came in the 2019/20 campaign. He conceded a solitary goal in Lille’s opening league game of the 2020/21 term.
Chelsea’s goalkeeping situation, as things stand, is a bit bleak. Kepa Arrizabalaga struggled to inspire any sort of confidence between the sticks this past season. So much so that, manager Frank Lampard axed him from the starting XI on multiple occasions.
Willy Caballero, on the other hand, is in the final phase of his career and cannot be relied upon week in week out. So securing an upgrade on our current options this summer is of great importance.
A number of names such as Nick Pope, Kasper Schmeichel have been mentioned. And Lille’s Mike Maignan has also emerged as a target for the club as per Sky Sports.
The 25-year-old former PSG academy man has been a consistent performer for Lille. And, at €30m, he would be a viable addition for the club.
It remains to be seen if the club does decide to go after a goalkeeper this summer, given that we have already spent heavily on Hakim Ziyech and Timo Werner already.
