Summer Mercato

Iturbe has agreed terms with Juve €1.5m for 5 years + bonuses ,Verona want €30m Juve are up to €27m ATM.

If true then it's good bye Iturbe, welcome back Matri.

[nefremo]

Conflicting reports. Some are saying that all is agree with Juve for 27M. However other reports say that this is just the valuation that Juve has put on the player and not actual cash...so player-exchange offers are likely from Juve.

Other reports are saying that Verona likes Juve's offer, but they've (and Iturbe) have given their word to Milan and Inzaghi. So they are waiting for Milan's last go at it. Milan apparently is waiting for Kaka (apparently answer is suppose to come today...with only a wait on Orlando to agree details).

I live in Orlando, so if any news comes out here, I'll post it.

The whole Iturbe thing reminds me of Tevez. He's given his word to us, Verona is willing to negotiate, good relations, etc. However, if no real bid is made Juve will just take him. (Exact Tevez situation)

Just let Juve take him. We can always take Pepe off their hands.

Apparently the Kaka situation has been delayed until next week:

In English, this report gives details on the situation with Rami and Iturbe:

There may be a possibility of sending/selling Birsa to Empoli along with Saponara:

İturbe is out of our reach. Lets face it. i dont expect anything from Galliani. Milan doesnt have even %1 chance for top 3 next season. Roma, Napoli and Juventus are very strong teams compared to us.

We have GK problem, wing back problem, fast CB problem, Montolivo replacement, Balotelli problem and İturbe.

Juve won the scudetto easily, then they are signing quality players while we sign bosman players for rotation role or back up players. Overpaying back up players is another problem. i dont believe that Milan can sign İturbe.

Seedorf wanted quality players and they sacked him. Now İnzaghi accepts everthing. Next season they will sack İnzaghi, vice versa. The real problem is Galliani, not Seedorf or İnzaghi.

A.Madrid won La Liga with 1/3 budget of us, they almost won a CL with that budget while we couldnt even compete with Parma and Torino with that budget.

[ZvonimirBoban]

Budget? We have budget?

"If not Iturbe, Lavezzi"

http://www.football-italia.net/51240/rep...be-lavezzi

[slifersd]

And the bullshit wheel continues to turn...Iturbe-->Lavezzi-->somebody else that is still fairly relevant (Nani?)-->the useless old free scrub Milan end up signing but will insist is better than Iturbe or Lavezzi (Pepe is a world champion, is he not? He would be perfect!)

Every couple of years, we come out and claim that we are following another team's model. I recall there was the Arsenal model, then the Dortmund model, and now the Atletico model. While there are similarities between all three models, they are all very different as well, since each club has a different structure and background. Constantly shifting our focus back and forth between models is simply an indication that we have no freaking idea what we are actually doing. We are like a wild dog chasing after random people for no reason other than they were there. And yet, when in the end, nothing works out correctly for us, the management sit there in bewilderment and goes "well, what did we do wrong?!"

Our team is run by idiots, simple as that.

With me being Mr Pessimistic or first name wet last name blanket ...Im starting to believe in EYE-TOUR-BAY.Theyre i too much talk of it from reliable enough sources ,while we get linked to players regularly we usually dont meet with agents SD's etc... Im all in for Iturbe.

[Gio-mania]

Juve have allegedly offered € 21 mln plus Quagliarella to Verona and don't seem willing to go on a bidding war. This should bode well for us, since Galliani has supposedly scraped up the necessary € 25 mln and just needs Silvio's approval. Both we and Juve would be offering the Iturbe € 1.5 mln/yr.

An agreement between Kakà and Sao Paulo seems more and more likely.

http://www.milannews.it/calciomercato-mi...ano-148483

Tuttosport is reporting a crazy story, by which Balotelli's agent Mino Raiola would be looking to buy Balotelli from Milan using a third party holding company to then loan him out to Juve.

http://www.milannews.it/primo-piano/clam...eri-148492

Some reports see us ahead of Juve for signing Mustafi, despite Juve's good relations with Sampdoria. A few German teams are after him too, though.
