JAKARTA - Goalkeeper Mike Maignan is ready to return to play with big Italian league club AC Milan after being sidelined for several weeks due to wrist surgery.

Quoted by Antara from football-Italy, Tuesday, Maignan previously suffered an injury while competing with the French national team during the international break last October.

Furthermore, Maignan is expected to return to defend AC Milan to face Sassuolo in the 14th week of the Italian League, November 28, 2021.

Even though he is ready to return to grazing, Maignan is still unable to defend AC Milan when they face Atletico Madrid in the Champions League, which will be held on Thursday morning Indonesian time.

Since his arrival from Lille earlier this season, Maignan immediately gained the trust to fill the main position of AC Milan goalkeeper replacing Gianluigi Donnarumma who left for Paris Saint-Germain.

Maignan has appeared in seven games for AC Milan in the Italian league this season and has kept three clean sheets during his time in charge of the Rossoneri.

In the Champions League, Maignan has conceded five goals in two games against Liverpool and Atletico Madrid.

Before joining AC Milan, Mike Maignan was listed as a mainstay goalkeeper for Lille and was part of the club's success in winning the French League title last season.

During his time with Lille in 2015, Mike Maignan made 180 appearances with 65 goals scored in all competitions.

Without Maignan last weekend, Ciprian Tatarusanu's goal was broken four times by Fiorentina in a thriller match that ended 4-3 for La Viola's advantage.
