AC Milan goalkeeper Mike Maignan should be available for selection ahead of this weekend’s Derby della Madonnina clash against Inter Milan.

The 29-year-old left the pitch in agony on Tuesday during his side’s 1-3 defeat at the hands of Liverpool on the opening matchday of the Champions League group stage.

The Frenchman covered his face while making his way towards the locker room. He left his place between the sticks for 19-year-old Lorenzo Torriani.

This incident prompted major concerns among Rossoneri supporters who feared the worst, especially with the Derby just around the corner.

But according to Sky Sport Italia via FcInterNews, Maignan will be ready and raring to go on Sunday.

As the source explains, the France international suffered a severe bruise to the right thigh.

Nevertheless, the custodian returned to training regularly on Thursday. Therefore, he’s expected to start for Paulo Fonseca’s side.

This is a significant boost for the Portuguese manager who’s currently walking on thin ice. His Milan tenure started on a slow note, as the team had to wait until the fourth round of the Serie A campaign to earn its first win of the season.

Moreover, the Milan fans in the stands voiced their displeasure following Tuesday’s defeat against Liverpool. The supporters in the Curva Sud hurled insults at the players after the final whistle, accusing them of complacency.

Therefore, many believe that a poor result in the Derby della Madonnina could spell a swift end to Fonseca’s time at Milanello.

Hence, the former Roma and Lille manager will be heavily relying on Maignan to produce the heroics between the posts.
