Maignan: Milan vs Como is Serie A, I don’t understand why it should be played in Australia

Milan goalkeeper Maignan said he did not understand why Milan's Serie A match against Como was scheduled to be played in Australia.

Since the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics will be held at Milan's San Siro Stadium, Milan's home game against Como in February next year will be held in Perth, Australia. Milan midfielder Rabiot has previously expressed opposition to this, saying that "this is completely crazy." Maignan also supported Rabiot's view in an interview.

Maignan said: "I completely agree with Rabiot's point of view. Some people have forgotten many issues and are too focused on economic interests. This is a Serie A league and I don't understand why it should be played outside Italy. In addition, we have already lost a home game this season. Although our goals are high, we should not take it lightly."
