==Career==

===Mohun Bagan===
After two seasons playing as a youth with Indian National FC Maithani signed for [[Mohun Bagan A.C.]] in 2009.
On 28 March, he had scored the equalizer against [[Shillong Lajong F.C.]], after coming in as a substitute.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.mohunbaganac.com/interview-detail/karim-bencherifa-speaks |title=McDowell Mohun Bagan - Interviews - Karim Bencherifa speaks |website=www.mohunbaganac.com |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130425234233/http://www.mohunbaganac.com/interview-detail/karim-bencherifa-speaks |archive-date=2013-04-25}} </ref>

===Mohammedan (loan)===
After the 2012–13 season ended, Maithani signed with IMG-Reliance to join their [[Indian Super League]] but due to objection from the [[I-League]] clubs in which they said they would not sign any players who joined the ISL it meant that Maithani would be without a club for a long period of time. Then, on 30 October 2013, it was announced that [[Mohammedan S.C. (Kolkata)|Mohammedan S.C.]] had broken that barrier when they signed Maithani on loan.<ref>{{cite web|title=Md Sporting snap ties with IPFCA|url=http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2013-10-30/i-league/43526042_1_i-league-clubs-ipfca-pritam-kotal|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131208050649/http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2013-10-30/i-league/43526042_1_i-league-clubs-ipfca-pritam-kotal|url-status=dead|archive-date=8 December 2013|work=[[The Times of India]]|accessdate=3 December 2013}}</ref>
