Milan are tracking the progress of promising Norway international Fredrik Stromstad.
The midfielder currently plays for Start in his homeland but has dropped on to the radar of the Italian giants.
Cesare Maldini has run a personal check on the 23-year-old and has passed on his views to Milan.
But should Rossoneri coach Carlo Ancelotti follow up on Maldini's report, he could face competition from across the continent.
Anderlecht and AZ Alkmaar are also keen on Stromstad, although the player is trying to stay focused on his Start career.
"I haven't heard any club names mentioned," Stromstad told VG.
"I do have the ambition to go abroad. I am fully focused on Start and the national team."

When I read "young prospect" I thought we were talking 18 years old or less. But 23? Hmmmm....
I think if he is a good player 23 years old is fine.
Even tho at 23 years old he is not a prospect, he is already a prffesional.

Oh btw, I feel like he is a BS player
next thing ud be asking for is a 5 year old to pair up with sheva in attack...
cant believe some of u find 23 'kinda old' ... whats difference dos it make to u if the guy is 23 or 18?? ... hes still a youngster on both occasions and if anything at23 he has more experience... not that im saying we should sign this guy... what i mean is that its stupid how desparate some people here sound for youth

I have seen Frederik Strψmstad play a bit this season, and he's definitely a good player. Maybe not superstar material, but given time and experience in the Serie A, he could become a useful player for us.

The difference is that when you are 23 you are closer to reaching your potential than when you are 17. If you are 23 and you havent opened other people's eyes, something is wrong.....or you arent that gifted.

no buddy, its usually at 28-31 where a player reaches his potential... not at 23, in te old days, 23 used to be considered as young as 18 is today... 23 is still young, a player that age still has around 12 years ahead of him, and thats alot.
good player but i dont think at this point he could have anything to offer milan
he gets his first match for norway later today btw

Fredrik Stromstad plays for my local team Start, he has been our most consistent and best player overall this season. Start was promoted to the highest level in Norway before this season, and are top-of-the-league with only 3 rounds left to play.
He is a fierce midfielder who runs a lot and he also has great skills. He is an Italy- and Milan-fan, and has always been.
He will make his full international debut later this evening against Belarus.
Although he would take some time to adapt to a big club like Milan, but then again most players would, I definitely think he is one-to-watch. Even Alberto Gilardino took some time to adapt...
Personally it would be great to see a player from my own town play for Milan.
The norwegian media also reports that Milan are interested in his fellow teammate Kristofer Haestad (I have posted about him in this forum earlier), another midfielder from Start and Norway. Apparently former Milan-player Per Bredesen reports directly to Cesare Maldini and the interest in the two players have been confirmed.
no buddy, its usually at 28-31 where a player reaches his potential... not at 23, in te old days, 23 used to be considered as young as 18 is today... 23 is still young, a player that age still has around 12 years ahead of him, and thats alot.usually players reaches their career climax at 25 - 30... for instance to examples - Dinho Gaucho and our Sheva ;)
23 is not so young as a teenager tough it is not so risky to buy him, cuz it is almost the age when a person is enough mature to show his real abilities ;)
Forza Milan

Nowadays, with 23 you have like 3 pro seasons under your belt. Id rather sign an teenager than a 23 years old guy. You arent a great football player from day to night.

Fredrik Stromstad made his debut for Norway yesterday away at Belarus. Stromstad played the whole 90 minutes and Norway won the match by 1-0. He was one of the best players in the match, showing great passing, skills and fighting spirit.

Good way to put it...

Yer right, dude. As I have said acquiring teenagers is very risky. It's better to grow up yer own youngsters. But now we are coerced to search for young gouys form other clubs. IMO it's quite good strategy to buy guys like Gila and Kaka in order to get well known stars like 'ski or Real does.
We should check Stromstand too, in case he might be another talent of Norge in rossonero ;) :sagrin:

Sorry, I did not mean to piss you off mk18, just the fact that I think he has STARTED MATURING, in comparison to an 18 year old player who has a few more years to at least START SHOWING what he is all about. Plus, I have not turned him down because he is old or something. I have expressed my opinion against him as I have never ever heard his name(although I'm into youngsters) and feel like it could be a mistake. ;)
Furthermore, developing your own youth and injecting some young players into the team, instead of relying only on older and experienced players is the safest call. It works for Barcelona to say the least
I hope I have exonerated myself in front of you

If he is any good, then I say get him. Someone has to beat Chelsea to all the talent thats out there!

no u ddnt piss me off, what i meant by that was that its annoying to hear all these guys crying for so many youngsters, it just isnt right, its not better when u go for youngsters

Nothing against Jordan, I dont even know where that is.....I would have said the same thing about a guy from Brazil or USA. I love it when guys that spend 20 hours on the Internet think they know more that people that spend 20 hours scouting or working in the soccer industry. Just that.

Right everyone lets get back on topic actually forgetting gila11 and mk18s argument really i want Fredrick I think he will be useful and we need young players know i know what mk18 said in other topic that age has nothing to do with it but still i just prefer younger players for some reason

and another thing, being the retarded scout u are doesnt make u a master of the game, ur ideology is crap and facts prove that experience is better for milans defence than 'youth' is... over the past decade weve had the following CB's who had a starting spot chance: maldini, baresi, costacurta, nesta, stam (experienced), roque jr, ayala, and laursen (youth) ... and being the amazing scout u are u conclude who turned out better! oh, maybe i should mention this, im a uni. student and im studyi sports management hoping to become a coach, so dont give me the tone that 'u work in the industry' because as far as im concerned, u sound like a little league assistant coach with that stoopid ideolgy u got
... to say 23 is not young .. LOL

What pro scouts? You think they just share your opinion? Okay then, I rather have Gods angels siding than me than pro scouts. they have a much better view.
There are numerous of examples of players who breaked trough at the age of 22-25 and from there on went on to show the world what they could do.

'ageless jordan' !!! ... ageless??? if anything were not ageless, where one of the first if not the first country/region to form our modern world u dumbass (refering to gila attack) were the region that bought u most prophets including muhammad, jesus and moses.

Most prominent way of dealing with someone that does irritate you is counter arguements or ignoring.
Some players that breaked trough a bit later: The whole attacking tridente of Udinese, Vieri, Oddo, Prso, Ballack. Players like Rivaldo and Zidane wasn't that known not national players by that age from I remember. I could with little effort list many more players that break trough in the league and/or the national team after none really fancied them that much when they where 22-24. Especially if we talk about countries that are out of the radar for most people here.
...
Almost forgot Makelele, IMO the best defensive midfielder in the world. Before he came to Real Madrid he didn't play in the national team and he wasn't really fancied. In fact I heard fans of Real Madrid doubt that transfer and Real Madrid did that year also buy the more highly rated Flavio concecaio.

Im not good in italian but this is what I THINK is said:
He knows and is happy that Milan are interested in him. Wigan also are after him. The coach of Start though said that we dont want to sell him for a large sum of money, we want to keep him as he has 3 more years on his contract. Milan are also interested by Haestad, another Norwegian midfielder in Start.

24-10-2005, 23:33
Wigan and Milan...Two teams of equal strength... :w262:
pff i dunno em. don't think he would be great he could be like our dhoraso player, warming the bench and selling em afterworths.
that our scouts do there best. i ve seen a player 'arthur' of sao paulo, he seems to be good. he is a defensive midfielder.
but yea we'll c. hope milan makes right choice.
