Summer Mercato

Well considering their poor levels of fitness, I think it's obvious why they were unwanted. We bought them at quite substantial sum of money, and if the poster that I quoted before said that they are idiots, then what adjective should we call our team with?

As for the two players, from what I've heard, Antonini is included whilst Di Gennaro will go on loan. I would be a little disappointed if that's true, as I don't think Antonini plus 6m is worth it, but it's hardly the end of the world.

As for Oliveira, Zaragoza exercised their right, as was stated by the contract. The management offered a year ago for them to make a full purchase for 10m euros, and they did that. The management cannot say no as they had already agreed to it (and put it in writing) a long time ago.



He's an AM for sure. He's a playmaker to be most correct.



I read this morning on goal.com that the Dossena deal might be in trouble as Italian clubs (namely Juve and Fio) have shown great interest and he'd prefer to stay in Italy. I'm guessing he's on Milan's list of potential players, along with Vargas.

for boriello part, i dont see why he couldnt perform in our system in the past, can perform next season UNDER THE SAME SYSTEM. anyways lets just wait and see

for the oliveira part, i didnt mean to say our board can say a thing or not. look at the big picture, we bought him and didnt play him, and loan him, and then sell him... so whats the point? what did our scout think? what did the management think when buying him? shouldnt we think if a player could fit into our system BEFORE buying him? yeah yeah.. i meant all kinds of that stuff.. not any right to object zara from buying him.. b/c honestly i dont care (and dont know) about oliveira.. i thought his affair could be for the money wash or something for the president, but not football related.

rumour today in gazzetta and tgcom.it is that Mancini could be comming to Milan.

Tgcom say it will be 12 mill euros plus Jankulovski and Gourcoff on loan. That is a fair deal to be honest, and i would prefer gorky to get experience in italy.

Jankulovski didnt really feature much last season soo...

Mystery Milan player close to joining Barcelona

Catalan sports paper Sport claims that Barcelona will sign an AC Milan player this summer. The negotiations are well-advanced and a deal could be closed in the coming hours.

"Mystery Milan player"....who could it be?

Hmmmmmm I won't even try to work that out, but how disingenius are these papers anyway?

The world knows that we are after 2 to 3 Barca players....it would be no surprise to me if one of our players were to move in exchange or partial exchange.

Its almost a no brainer....but they have a "scoop" and people (especially Barca supporters) will grab up those papers to read that news!

ITS BA!

idk who it is, but it might be one of those :
Gourcuff, Seedorf ,EMERSON, Gila, and Kalac

The GAZZETTA claim that Milan are after Evra and Mancini.
This is hard to belive but they have speculations and they say that Milan
offer money+Gorky+Boriello (this is way it sounds not true) and also that Evra is ending his contract next season and he can leave this summer for a good offer.

Something more:
I Know that my English is bad!

and we might aswell get Zambro back to Italy

Barcelona full-back Gianluca Zambrotta has revealed that he wants to join Milan this summer as he misses Italy.

The Azzurri ace joined the Spanish giants from Juventus two seasons ago, but he hasn't been able to settle into life at the Nou Camp.

“It is nice to be in Spain because there are many big clubs, but my wish is to return to Italy,” confessed the 31-year-old.

“Joining Milan? Not yet. The two clubs have had a meeting but the negotiations are still ongoing and there is nothing written down. But it would be nice to go back.

“My home is in Como, which is 40 minutes away from Milanello.”

The Catalans have set their asking price at £8m but the Milanesi are hoping to seal the deal for £6m.

“Milan have failed to win the Scudetto for many years, and I hope that next season - with or without me - they will win it,” added the former Juventus man.

“Right now I am focusing on the national team, but I can still think about my transfer.”

Zambrotta concluded by giving his opinion on Barça teammate Ronaldinho, who could also join Milan this summer.

“He has got a good chance of coming to Italy. When he is at his best he can still make a difference. But if I could I would also sign Samuel Eto'o.”

Milan Vice-President Adriano Galliani is to fly to Barcelona to iron out a deal for Blaugrana defender Gianluca Zambrotta.

The 31-year-old World Cup winner is eager to leave Camp Nou after two trophy-less seasons.

Galliani will have dinner with Barcelona chairman Joan Laporta to discuss the Italian’s asking price.

Milan have already made an offer for the former Juventus stopper, but it is believed to have fallen £3.5m short of the Culés’ valuation.

Silvio Berlusconi’s right-hand man will also put forward a proposal for Barcelona’s want-away forwards, Samuel Eto’o and Ronaldinho.

Laporta, last week, made it clear that Ronaldinho did not have a future with the Catalan giant’s.

Any deal for Eto’o is unlikely to involve the Brazilian given their antipathy towards each other.

I really want to see what crudelli might say about it, FORZA MILAN, FORZA BERLU, FORZA GALLIANI

Fernando from where ?? lol

And like you, I'll be a Milan fan forever, simply because this club is special ... I don't know any other club able to give a contract to a guy who will never play again simply because he's in a bad part of his life.

I'm not angry with our management simply because all that is football, of course I like my favourite team being 1st in Serie A or winning every competition (CL especially), there are some players I don't really like (Ronaldo, Emerson for example) but they are Milan players, so I support them until they go (it's a bit different from the ones I like and that I'll hope the best for them even when they'll leave, like Gilardino for example).
There's no need to say "our management is ***** or **** or ******", the same people made us winning everything, so if they fail to build a new team for 2-3 years and then succeed to build the next best team in world for the following 5-6 years, that's ok for me.

And it was said many times: mercato isn't started yet !!

PS: The real difference between Milan and other big clubs is that they are a sum of players, we are a team.

Goal.com says that Mourinho has agreed to join Inter, and he will be allowed to immediately sign Lampard and Deco, and later Drogba.
Figo also will stay one more year!

Just imagine: Ibrahimovic, Drogba, Lampard, Deco, Figo, Cambiasso, Vieira, Stankovic.....

Now we definitely need more than Borriello and Flamini if we are gonna win il Scudetto!

Minimum Ronaldinho, Eto'o up front plus one more midfielder, and many defenders!
Come on Galliani!!!!
