Maldini driving licence suspended after car crash

Cagliari attacking midfielder Daniel Maldini had his driver's licence revoked by Milan authorities after failing roadside breath tests following an early Sunday morning collision. The 24-year-old was driving a Porsche Carrera 4 that struck another automobile, leaving him and five others with slight injuries.

5 g/l. After undergoing cautionary medical evaluations at a nearby hospital, he was discharged, with his club subsequently announcing that his own toxicology screenings came back clean and confirming his presence at Monday's workout.

The crash occurred just hours after Maldini netted the decisive strike during Cagliari's 2-1 Serie A triumph over Atalanta, the side that currently holds his registration. The player represents the third generation of his renowned dynasty to feature for the Italian senior national team, tracing the path of his father Paolo and grandfather Cesare.

Since earning his senior international cap in a 2024 Nations League encounter with Israel, he has represented the Azzurri six times, most recently taking the pitch in September 2025.
