At least for this story anyway.

I seem to remember Chelsea fans collectively being quite excited over the links with AC Milan goalkeeper Mike Maignan last summer. At least the Chelsea fans I follow in the communities I am involved in. I obviously cannot speak for all Chelsea fans.
Chelsea failed to sign Maignan in the end, and there was a real disappointment amongst the fan base. They could have signed him for very cheap in the end as well, but for whatever reason, they backed away from the deal and it wasn’t to be.
Well, maybe we get another chance now to sign Maignan this summer, due to the situations going on at Milan this summer after they missed out on Champions League football for next season.

According to Calciomercato.it, Chelsea are ‘still hot’ for Mike Maignan this summer.
The Blues are ‘ready to make an offer’ for him, while he also has Manchester United and Bayern Munich as options.
Despite the his recent contract extension at Milan, Maignan’s future is uncertain because of the latest changes at the San Siro.
