I’m sorry, but the information you’ve received about AC Milan goalkeeper Mike Maignan being sentenced to five years in prison for an accusation involving a “mother kiss” is not accurate. There is no credible news source reporting such an incident involving Maignan.
However, Maignan has been the target of racist abuse during a Serie A match between AC Milan and Udinese on January 20, 2024. During the game, Maignan alerted the referee to racist chants from Udinese fans, leading to a brief suspension of play. In response, Italian authorities identified several individuals involved in the abuse. Four fans were banned for life from all Italian stadiums, and Udinese extended this ban to a lifetime exclusion from their home ground, Stadio Friuli. Additionally, the club was ordered to play one match behind closed doors as part of the sanctions.
Maignan has been vocal about the need for strong measures against racism in football. After the incident, he emphasized the importance of stringent sanctions for offenders to combat discrimination effectively.
