Chelsea Told to Pay €30 Million for Top Target After Preparing €25 Million Bid: Reports
- Chelsea have officially reached out to AC Milan to negotiate the signing of goalkeeper Mike Maignan, aiming to finalize the transfer ahead of the FIFA Club World Cup starting on June 14, 2025.
- Chelsea’s interest in Maignan arises amid their need to improve a goalkeeper position weakened by inconsistent performances and following Edouard Mendy's 2023 departure.
- Maignan, 29, has played 163 games with AC Milan since 2021, won two trophies including the 2021-22 Serie A title, and is France’s first-choice keeper since January 2023.
- AC Milan demands €30 million while Chelsea had prepared a €25 million bid, showing reluctance to meet Milan’s price due to Maignan's one-year remaining contract.
- If signed, Maignan would likely start immediately and improve Chelsea's goalkeeper situation, though further negotiations will determine if an agreement is reached.
