Colombian defender? Nah... Sceptical.
Young South American to take up a non EU spot.Wouldnt be right if that didnt happen

LOL. At least this Balanta kid playing top level football at one of the Argentinian/South American biggest clubs, not some what's-its-name club at Columbian second division.
Speaking of non EU quota, with Vergara's being loaned out, does that free one spot for us?
There were Balanta to Barca rumours so he might be a bit different, having said that I don't trust Galliani signing anymore. At all.
It's official I guess, on the official site there is mention of Essien arriving
Trentun anni appena compiuti, tante vittorie in carriera nei Campionati nazionali e in Champions League, nazionale ghanese. E' questo il curriculum d'alto livello che accompagna Michael Essien all'aeroporto della Malpensa. L'atterraggio previsto in serata.
Don't get the Essien signing personally, if anything it just lessens Cristante's opportunities from what I see. I do worry about the way we're rebuilding the squad.

no.
Best forget him then. Especially if what Reza said about Barca's interest is true. Unless he secretly loves Milan, there's no way we can compete financially with them.

Something tells me Seedorf was going to try De Jong - Monto for a 'long' while any way, Essien does not necessarily change that much.
