Beaten once in opener Maignan registered no saves and allowed one goal in Sunday's 2-1 win against Torino.

Impact Maignan had a poor outing as he failed to stop the only shot on target he faced, which came in the late stages of the game against Torino. It was his first appearance since the disappointing end to his participation in the 2026 World Cup with the French national team. Before that, he averaged 2.9 saves per game and secured 13 clean sheets over 37 matches during the last Serie A competition, so he'll look to bounce back to achieve similar numbers in the current season. Up next is a home fixture versus Venezia, which appears to be one of the more manageable matchups in the initial stretch of the schedule.

AUGUST 24 • ROTOWIRE

Concedes six goals to England Maignan registered four saves and allowed six goals in Saturday's 6-4 loss versus England.

Impact Maignan had a busy day which included four goals conceded only in the first half as his side's second-unit defense struggled to deny the opposition's attacks. Still, this was the keeper's best game in terms of saves, increasing his tally to 13 shots stopped over eight World Cup starts. He'll head back to his club AC Milan ahead of the Serie A kickoff in August.

Beaten twice in loss to Spain Maignan made no saves and allowed two goals in Tuesday's 2-0 defeat against Spain.

Impact Maignan had his worst outing in the 2026 World Cup, failing to stop a single shot and committing an error that could have led to another goal against. The two goals conceded doubled his total over the first seven games of the competition, with the match against Spain marking the first time his side's defensive weaknesses were actually exposed. With only the third-place game left, the goalkeeper will soon end his participation in the international window, having recorded nine saves, four goals allowed and four clean sheets over seven World Cup starts so far.

JULY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Clean sheet against Morocco Maignan had one save and allowed zero goals in Thursday's 2-0 win against Morocco.

Impact Maignan would have a relatively quiet day in net for France, as the goalie was only called into action once, earning a clean sheet. This is a third straight clean sheet for the goalie at the World Cup, with four in six appearances thus far. He will now prepare to face Spain or Belgium in the semifinals, with the path not getting any easier.

JULY 9 • ROTOWIRE

Keeps clean sheet versus Paraguay Maignan had no saves and allowed zero goals in Saturday's 1-0 win against Paraguay.

Impact Maignan did a good job despite not being required to stop any shot during a one-sided game. He left his goal unbeaten for the third time in the last four matches, having conceded only once against Norway over that period. The goalkeeper should be reliable for clean sheet chances if France continue to dominate, but he'll likely face a greater workload in the quarter-finals meeting with Morocco, who scored eight goals across their previous three games.

JULY 4 • ROTOWIRE

Keeps clean sheet against Sweden Maignan recorded three saves and allowed zero goals in Tuesday's 3-0 victory over Sweden.

Impact Maignan did a solid job as his national team dominated in the first knockout round of the 2026 World Cup. The goalkeeper registered three saves for the second straight game, adding to a total of eight across four matches played so far. As for the clean sheet, it was his second over that span. He should be one of the safest fantasy options in the next round if France continue to meet expectations against a Paraguay side that scored less than two goals in each of the previous four games.

JUNE 30 • ROTOWIRE

Three saves against Norway Maignan recorded three saves and allowed one goal in Friday's 4-1 victory over Norway.

Impact Maignan made three saves in Friday's 4-1 win over Norway, with his most important contribution coming in the second half when he dived low to his right to repel Jorgen Strand Larsen's weak penalty after Theo Hernandez's foul on Oscar Bobb, keeping France's lead at two goals and preventing Norway from having any realistic hope of a comeback. The AC Milan goalkeeper also dealt confidently with Bobb's one-on-one in the 72nd minute, completing a clean-sheet performance in open play that was only interrupted by Thelo Aasgaard's first-half goal from a collective defensive error rather than any individual goalkeeping lapse. His penalty save, composure and command of his area across three group games without a genuine goalkeeping error make him one of the most reliable goalkeepers at the tournament, and France's defensive platform heading into the knockout rounds is built significantly on the certainty he provides.

He was largely a spectator between the posts behind a France back line that dictated the game from start to finish, both before and after the lengthy stoppage. The victory punches France's ticket to the World Cup Round of 32, with Maignan and Les Bleus now set for a Group I showdown against Norway with first place on the line.

JUNE 22 • ROTOWIRE

Two saves in opener Maignan had two saves and allowed one goal in Tuesday's 3-1 win over Senegal.

Impact Maignan caught a break in the 25th minute when Nicolas Jackson's effort rattled the post and ricocheted off his foot before bouncing harmlessly away, sparing him from an unfortunate own goal. He was eventually beaten by Ibrahim Mbaye's stoppage-time strike, which briefly put a scare into what had otherwise been a comfortable French victory, while making two routine saves during a largely quiet evening between the posts. France will need a more alert start from both their goalkeeper and defensive unit when the knockout rounds bring a much tougher challenge.

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.

Impact 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.

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.
