Last night, during the Champions League match lost by Milan against Liverpool, the Rossoneri also had to deal with the injury of goalkeeper Mike Maignan. The Frenchman, in fact, had already shown physical problems in the first half, but chose to grit his teeth after receiving medical attention.
The incident that forced him to exit the game happened early in the second half, when after a low save he collided accidentally with Fikayo Tomori, who had slid in to contain the opponent. Maignan then waved the white flag, giving way to third goalkeeper Lorenzo Torriani, as deputy goalkeeper Sportiello is also injured.
There is great concern in the Rossoneri camp for the condition of the Frenchman, especially with the upcoming derby against Inter on Sunday evening. Maignan left the stadium limping yesterday and the initial diagnosis – as reported by MilanNews – is a severe bruise to the right thigh. Further examinations should be carried out today to assess the extent of the problem and determine whether he will be available against the Nerazzurri.
