Overview
- On November 2 at San Siro, Mike Maignan saved Paulo Dybala’s 82nd-minute penalty to preserve Milan’s 1-0 victory over Roma.
- It was the first penalty saved by a Milan goalkeeper at home since Ciprian Tătărușanu stopped Lautaro Martínez on November 7, 2021.
- Former goalkeeper Luca Marchegiani said Claudio Filippi’s detailed preparation influenced Maignan’s read on the kick, citing study of run-ups and game context.
- Reporting in Italy says contract talks are frozen, Maignan can negotiate with other clubs from January, and a summer exit remains possible after a proposed move to Chelsea fell through over price.
- Milan are assessing potential successors, with Noah Atubolu of Freiburg and Zion Suzuki of Parma among the names under consideration.
