Thigh injury forces Mike Maignan to leave France vs Türkiye match

Mike Maignan, the goalkeeper for the French national team, suffered an injury during the match against Türkiye on Sunday evening, in the sixth and final round of the group stage of the UEFA Nations League, forcing him to leave the pitch at the start of the second half.

AC Milan's goalkeeper was unable to continue the match after feeling pain in his thigh, prompting the coaching staff to substitute him at the start of the second half, bringing on goalkeeper Reis Steeve in his place.

Maignan made a crucial save in the first half, after he denied a dangerous opportunity for the Türkiye national team, following a one-on-one with the striker Gül, maintaining his clean sheet before leaving.

The nature and severity of the injury remain unclear as medical examinations are awaited to determine the extent of the issue and the potential duration of absence.
