I'm glad we are linked to him again. Even though it's tuttomerrcato (I swear those guys just read forums and make up rumors 
). But, we were also linked to him back in October or something, so maybe there something to it. (I hope)
I agree on Tonelli. I like the player, as I've said before. Empoli WILL sell at the end of the year (they even said so themselves).....but I see him going to Napoli. They've been linked to him forever and have been wanting to sign a CB since the summer.
Also, don't forget that will also have Paletta back on our books in the summer. I don't think too much of him, but he can be a good option as a back up CB. He wanted to leave this year because he wanted a starting spot in a club before the Euros. I think he'll be ok staying this next summer. By the way, is he injured now?
I agree about Ely...he needs to go out on loan. To be honest, I had really big doubts about him since pre-season. He made many mistakes every time he played....but people were giving him the benefit of the doubt because he is so young. It's one of those things when you think someone is so bad and has no business in the club, but than you see them play and you realize that, "hey, he is actually ok and he is YOUNG", so you look through the mistakes that player makes. But after a while those add up and "the he is young and has potential" argument starts to fade. I think right now Ely doesn't have the quality to start for Milan. BUT, he showed promise so going out on loan (in a Serie A side) will either iron him out and get him ready, or it'll prove that he's not good enough. But sitting on the bench here won't do anyone any good.
It would be great if we sign Mammana, bring back Paletta, and renew Zapata. That means we'll have Romagnoli, Mammana, Zapata, Paletta. Tonelli would be awesome to bridge the settling period for Mammana, but honestly, I'm so impressed by this kid that I know for a fact he'll make the position his very quickly. (Especially with Mihajlovic's willingness to play young players). So I would rather use the 10mil somewhere else.
