DBasia.news – AC Milan is rumored to be bringing in former AS Roma goalkeeper, Antonio Mirante, in the near future. Il Diavolo Rosso took the decision after the main goalkeeper, Mike Maignan suffered an injury.
AC Milan are in a complicated situation after Mike Maignan continues feel pain in his wrist. The goalkeeper began to feel it after the game against Liverpool.
Finally, Mike Maigan will perform arthroscopic surgery to heal the injury. That way, the former Lille goalkeeper is rumored to be out for at least the next 10 days.
Not surprisingly, Milan are looking for a new goalkeeper. Because, currently only Ciprian Tatarusanu is ready to play after Alessandro Plizzari is recovering from an injury. Moreover, it is feared that Maignan will need a longer break, reaching six to eight weeks.
Milan is increasingly under pressure because tough opponents like Bologna, Roma, Porto and Inter Milan are waiting for them in the next few matches.
With limited options because the transfer market has closed, Milan has moved to secure Antonio Mirante. The Rossoneri can bring Mirante because he is currently a free transfer or not under contract with any club.
The two sides are said to have reached the final stages of negotiations. The goalkeeper will soon undergo medical tests in the near future. Previously, Mirante was linked with another Serie A club, Spezia.
Antonio Mirante is not currently defending any club after his contract was not extended by AS Roma in the summer of 2021. Before strengthening Roma, Mirante had defended Bologna, Parma, Sampdoria, Juventus, Siena, to FC Crotone. Currently, the goalkeeper is 38 years old.
The presence of Antonio Mirante is expected to maintain the pace of Milan in Serie A. Currently, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and his team mates are in second place in the standings with 19 points. Next, Milan will host Hellas Verona (17/10).
