Agent confirms Bocchetti-Milan talks
Saturday 7 August, 2010
Salvatore Bocchetti’s agent has confirmed “the prospect of an exchange between Milan and Genoa is true.”
Rumours had emerged that the Italian international, who was part of the 2010 World Cup squad and never played, is at the centre of an intriguing deal.
Genoa would hand him over to Milan in exchange for cash plus Marek Jankulovski, but the Czech appears to be holding up the move.
“The prospect of an exchange between Milan and Genoa is true,” agent Flavio Marrucco told Sky Sport Italia.
“The two clubs are working to find the right alternative and Bocchetti can certainly be interesting for Milan.
“I think it all depends on Jankulovski’s decision. We can only sit and wait for the clubs to make a decision.
“Salvatore is calm and experiencing this moment. I think that we’re unlikely to see a massive development over the weekend, but you can never say never.”
The 23-year-old has been at Genoa since 2008 after spells at Ascoli, Lanciano and Frosinone.
If Milan do sign the centre-back, it may well suggest that Real Madrid could have a chance at prising away Thiago Silva.
