Winter Mercato

If they want a player, I am of the belief that they can get them...not the same as Abramovich, but the money men are some of the richest in Europe for Milan, yes?

Anyway, Gigi promised we will turn down any offer from Inter and as it looks right now Milan will pay around 30 mil + Abiatti to Juve. That is a fair price I think. I know Tony will be pissed off but hey....we are Milan after all

I wouldn't be so sure about Kaka, Marko.
I'll wait to see what will Milan do in CL, but if you fail again, then it opens few more possibilities.

1. 3 years losing on every single front is too much for a champion like Kaka.
2. 10m Eur per year Real would offer is 100% more than what he gets at Milan.
3. The 3 players +30m for Kaka is even more than fair. Diarra and Robinho both cost 15m minimum ( 30 m for both of them), while Canna's fair price is at least 5m.
It makes 65m Eur total which is very close to what Real payed for Zidane at the time when the transfer market went crazy.
These 65m are equal to 100m in 2001 !
4. If Kaka wants money ( and like every normal Brasilian player in Europe , he does love money) then he may do all sorts of problems just to make Berlu let him go.
5. Him signing new contract with Milan last summer means nothing ( if we say that Dida's new contract means nothing).


Regarding Buffon, you don't have to say sorry for him not going to Inter. If it's true than it's the best news possibile.
As for Milan ..... Juve's looking for new keeper elsewhere if all these reports connecting Juve to Boruc are true. So maybe Abbiati won't be included in this deal. And even if he is, 30m + Abbiati is pretty good.
35m Euro ,and no player included, for a player who wants to leave is still very solid. 40m ( forthy) would be fantasy and i still think Juve may get these money from someone if few more clubs show interest.

Buffon is already a legend in Juve, and that's what will hurt the club and the fans if he leaves. Losing him as a legend hurts, while losing him as in losing the best goalkeeper won't hurt much, imo, because there are at least 5 goalkeepers outthere who'll cost 4-5 times less than Gigi, and will provide at least 70% of the stability he's giving to Juve.
It can't be compared to losing the best defender in the world, or the best midfielder in the world or losing a goal machine that provides 25-35 goals per season.

These 30 or 35, or maybe even 40m Juve'll get may bring Ribery+CD+another very good player.
As much as i love Buffon, in this situation Juve's in, i think Ribery and 2 more very good players will give much more than what Buffon can give to Juve !

At the end, regarding the bolded part of your post....what do you mean by "WE" ?
Does WE goes for Juve ?

I posted last week that the winners of the CL can expect about £30 million from winning the competition.

Rumours of Dida leaving have been circling around throughout the entire season, so i don't understand why it would make much of a difference now as opposed to earlier in the year/last year.

Whatever happens, i would just hope that Berlusconi deals with Buffon/Ronaldinho and the club sorts out the other players (for me that would be Zambrotta, Alex, Tiago, Barusso, Lucas, Henry/Huntelaar (whichever is cheaper))

Jamie, that's almost identical to my shopping list. I would want Buffon, however, but not Ronaldinho. The only thing I would add is a back up for Kaka, as he is overplayed and we lack another attacking midfielder that can take his role. I'd take Rosina or Anderson in that role. I'm also not too sure about Henry/Huntelaar, but I'm also not too confident in taking a risk on Quagliarella or Bianchi or any other current young promising Italian strikers. They could be overpriced and underachievers on the big stage.

If i hear you again talking about Srna and backup RB in the same context then i'll put you in my ignore list


Ah, Darijo Srna
Yes, i'm most probably subjective but i really concider him to be one of the best 5 players in the world covering the right side of the field.
He's not a Right Back. He's playing on that position in Shaktar but he's the best as a RM.
He has incredibille technique. Dribblings, pace, and especially free kicks and crossings are his main weapon.
Liverpool and all the other giants ( but Liverpool most of them all) were trying to get him, but that crazy millionaire owner of Shaktar offered him a contract that not even Ronaldinho could refuse.
I think he's the best payed RB in the world ( or among the 3 best payed). That's the only reason why he's still in Ukraine.

Here you can see videos of Srna ( Srna in Croatian means Roe deer, the baby of the deer, Bamby ) :

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NeyklwamQd0 ( his free kick goals and his crossings)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MYA6C1zx8D4 ( here you can see the real Darijo Srna. The position where he plays the best. All these things you'll see happened in the second half of the last EC qulifying match for Croatia. Srna is the one who always makes the difference on Croatian NT matches and he did it again on this match.
Oh, Srna is the one who has the ball at his feet all the time . Number 11 )

in the summer i would like to see !!!

1.Gigi Buffon
2.Gianluca Zambrotta
3.And Some striker !!! or strikers !! huntelaar or Cassano

---------------------- Buffon --------------------

--- Oddo ----- Nesta ------ Bonera --- Zambrotta

---------------------- Pirlo ----------------------

---------- Gattuso --------- Seedorf ------------

---------------------- Kaka ---------------------

--------- Ronaldo ------------ Huntelaar --------

Out !!

1.Marco Borrielo
2.Nelson Dida - he s most likely to leave if buffon does arrive !!
3.Cafu - should return home ..
and a couple others !!! fiori etc too many goalies in our squad

Sorry if it was already posted :

http://www.calciomercato.com/index.php?c=21&a=41076

Dinho's agent will meet with Laporta to discuss the renewal of Dinho's contract and reports from Spain say Ronaldinho will probably extend his contract until 2014.
If by any chance something goes wrong and they don't reach a deal, then he will almost certanly go to Milan.

The last time Dinho spoke about staying or leaving Barcelona ( December 22), he declared : "Everything indicates that i will continue in Barcelona"

phew, that was close

Ahaaaaaaa
I thought you were talking about the way i translated the article

Edit : And if Milan won't sign Dinho, i guess Berlu's money can be spent elsewhere.
Hmm, this changes everything now.
Buffon's new price is 60m Eur

well, I didn't wanna mention it but since you did - the translation sucks too

even newer price: Buffon stays at Juve and Juve watch CL on TV 2-3 years in a row

Actually Tony we WON the scudetto in Kaka's rookie year

I like the fact that Buffon does not want to go to the Interisti. I would like Dinho to extent his Contract and stay with Barca in that case Eto will leave, and I hope Milan will get him.
