Summer Mercato 2011
Sneijder saying that he can leave, because Inter need money.

Maybe he really could be this summer's Alessandro Nesta? Devilol

On other news, Christian Eriksen (Ajax), linked with Milan numerous times, reportedly turned down Manchester City's big buck offer. Good to see young players with this kind of transfer-intelligence Smile

Edit: Porto got interested in Ganso too.

We could get Eriksen before Ajax signed him if we do have great scout outside Italy and have interest of young European players (for now it seems that we have only focus to get talents from Italy). Milan should monitor the German talents, they are producing many talents now result of heir reform on their youth development a decade ago. I am not saying that we should non-Italian talents but certain players could be bought if they indeed show more talents than the Italian ones.

4 out of 5 upcoming young German talents are of Turkish origin, so I say lets go and scout in Turkey,it might be more productive Big Grin

Seeing the last U17 teams it is true but the German talents still exist, at least the ones who are now blooming in Dortmund, München, Schalke etc and some of them are being monitored by big European club like Real Madrid. Bundesliga could 'export' more players than they have been doing until now since Özil, Khedira's time. Bundesliga clubs can't hold their best players (except München I believe) but at the same time they could substitute the outgoing players with young players, just like how they started giving chances to young players a couple of years ago due to (one of them) players' price inflation.

If we could sign one of their player is Can, a skillful midfielder who is very good at offensive job and could build the game too plus liked helping the defensive duties. Too bad he already featured in the training of Bayern München last season (which should mean that FC Bayern do rate him).

At least we have started to give focus on youth development. This year we still buy some (or I should say many) young talents from inside Italy. Valoti supposed to play with Primavera but it seems he could join the senior team when the season starts, a role which Merkel did last year.

I wish we would sign Lucas and Fabregas.. That would be the perfect mercato! Leaves space for cassano to prove his worth because at Lucas young age he'll eventually fill into trequartista role and get a fair share of caps, while Fabregas will be a great replacement to pirlo and help out our midfield.. 15-20mln Lucas, 40mln fabregas.. 60mln we have a complete squad.

He's not a lethal scorer, but opens the field up by blowing by people and dishing off to other players. He'd improve our squad for sure, but I think we're all wishing for someone younger, in better form, and perhaps someone that can fit out system a bit better. Quite frankly, being linked with Pastore, Hamsik, & Fabregas, Kaka would be a slight disappointment, considering his injuries, etc.

Of the three u listed, only Hamsik said he does not playing for Milan next season. While Monty and Aqua both stated they were in talks with Milan. To me Kaka is much better than Monty and Aqua.

Inter have bought a half of Juraj Kucka for 8M, but the deal is not finalized because both parties want him for the coming season. http://www.football-italia.net/aug8d.html

IMO, he is a box to box player who can pass like Arturo Vidal. Inter could be more fearsome with him because their biggest weakness is the midfielders. Cambiasso's passing is not better than Gattuso and he is not getting younger, Sneijder is struggling with new formation, other CMs besides Motta lack the energy.

Someone from other forum said that Fio also getting Kharja, which could raise the rumor of Montolivo going to Milan. It is also said that Cassano, Paloschi and Oddo will leave and Drogba will come as replacement.

IF Cassano leaves, I prefer Adebayor to Drogba as vice Ibra.
