Undisputed No. 1 for France
Maignan has been named in France's World Cup squad and is expected to start almost every fixture for Les Bleus as coach Didier Deschamps' undisputed first choice between the posts.
Analysis: Maignan wraps up a standout club campaign as one of the most dominant goalkeepers in Serie A, pairing elite shot-stopping with a commanding aerial presence as he gears up to anchor what looks like a deep run for France in the tournament. With Brice Samba set to serve as his backup, the AC Milan keeper enters the competition firmly in the conversation as one of the top goalkeepers in the world and will be leaned on heavily as France chase a third World Cup title. His leadership and defensive organization elevate his impact, making him just as valuable with his distribution and communication as he is with his reflexes between the posts. Maignan also posted his highest clean sheet total since the 2021/2022 season with 13 this campaign and heads into the tournament in top form.
Nine saves against Cagliari
Maignan made nine saves and allowed two goals in Sunday's 2-1 loss versus Cagliari. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 58th minute.
Analysis: Maignan was decisive on multiple occasions in Sunday's 1-2 defeat to Cagliari on the final day of the Serie A season, producing several important interventions to keep his side in the match. The French goalkeeper was ultimately beaten twice by Gennaro Borrelli and Juan Rodriguez as AC Milan's hopes of returning to the UEFA Champions League came to an end at San Siro. Maignan finishes the 2025-26 Serie A season with 13 clean sheets, 108 saves and 35 goals conceded across 37 appearances, and he is expected to play a major role for France national football team at the FIFA World Cup in June.
