AC Milan make offer for Betis striker Oliveira

Source Eurosport

Striker Ricardo Oliveira has agreed terms with AC Milan after the Serie A giants ditched their attempts to lure Ronaldo to the San Siro.
The 26-year-old will undergo a medical before signing a deal that will see him move from la Liga side Real Betis on a four year deal.

"I am happy to have been signed by such an important club as Milan," Oliveira said on his arrival in Milan on Friday.

Looks like we have signed him then!

Read the article again, and take a look at the date it's written.
It's old news, and much more has happened regarding this transfer after that comment made by Oliveira...

I wouldn't be surprised if we lose Vogel to them but end up with no Oliveira. Spanish clubs are weird. After we loaned or sold Coloccini, Albertini, Contra, Jose Mari (did I get all the four players right?), everyone thought that was (had to be) some prelude to our procurement of *cough* Torres, and not to mention that 23 million debt they owe us, are we even close in getting the player or the money now?

Latest from gazzetta:

Milan are in negotations still for Oliveira and only for Oliveira. If he does not arrive then they will stick with the players they have.

Not a good news, but I think I'm sastified with our current squad.

need a rb and striker at least, im far from happy tho! i want transfer Guru job!

I still have a feeling that Oddo would end up in Milan given how tense his situation at Lazio has become.
If Oliveira comes, this almost certainly would mean Vogel would be leaving, so maybe we are after a midfielder too.
Let's not forget that not all Milan execs are in Sevilla having their time wasted by that thing Lopera.
Other than that, I thing the squad is more than competitive, plus, if we do need extra reinfrcements, we can always get quality players in January, as well.

ok, maybe I should have added this to my previous post - I rarely believe what I hear on the news. Carlo did what every coach should do - he showed trust and confidence in his current players ... without this, he couldn't possibly expect them to give him 100% throughout the season.

I don't think so, he's only played for Sevilla in the ESC so far.
but not sure if he could sub Vogel as Pirlo's replacement ... nice option though

That's assuming there are quality players available in January Zlatanov.

me and Jim were talking about Fiore, he could be a option... ancelloti is a fan!
