Juve await exodus Saturday 15 July, 2006

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Reports suggest that nine key Juventus players are set to leave Turin after yesterday’s Calciopoli verdict sentenced the Bianconeri to Serie B.

Azzuri heroes Gigi Buffon (pictured) and Gianluca Zambrotta may be the first to the door. While Milan are said to be interested, the lack of Champions League football could force the pair to look overseas.

Real Madrid’s ex-Roma transfer wizard Franco Baldini has made no secret of his intention to “fish in the Juve pond” should his old employers find themselves relegated, as is now the case.

The Bernabeu side have already revealed in interest in Emerson and Coach Fabio Capello has called for Fabio Cannavaro to follow him to Spain.

Inter are said to be discussing terms with Swedish marksman Zlatan Ibrahimovic, but David Trezeguet and Lilian Thuram face uncertain futures.

Milan have managed to keep Kaka, Gennaro Gattuso and Andrea Pirlo, but will now miss out on Fernando Torres as the Spanish ace has stressed that he needs to play Champions League football.[u]

Hear hear. Sunderland basically bought a new team for last season, and look what happened (the less said the better) ... the money spent reflected the quality bought.

I'm certain that Sunderland didn't bought a squad of great players...

What a disgusting comment to be honest. I don't know how you can rejoice at the leave of a personnel who had brought so many wonderful players to the team. Sheva, Nesta, Kaka... I am truthfully sorry for your comment and hope that you'll show some respect in the future.

Oh yeah, and also Vieri, Amoroso, Pancaro, Kalac, Efterophoulos, Rivaldo, Simic, Esajas, etc, etc, etc...

If we are going to spend big then at least consult with Carlo so he can pick out the right guy for the team, Carlo has been around the block a couple of times he should know what his team needs

Yeah, go ahead and be sacarstic. Vieri is a flop, Amoroso is never meant to be a star, Pancaro? EXCUSE ME he won a serie A with us if you remember. the 2 goalkeepers? you sure you want to mention them? you ask yourself whether they are meant to be the starting XI when they are bought?

Rivaldo: Rivaldo is rivaldo's problem. He got as much playing time as Rui Costa, and see who wants to leave at the end? Simic? Dear GRN, I don't know when you start watching Milan. Go and watch how Simic played in the CL the year we won during the group stage. Then you'll know how to shut your mouth. Esajas? Is he meant to be a starting XI AT ALL?

Amoroso, the 2 GK and Esajas are never meant to start a game unless even the 2nd line players were injured. Rivaldo chose to leave. Pancaro and Simic did win something with us, HALO? The only players that you mention correctly is Vieri.

etc. etc. etc.? So who they are ? Come on? Shot me the answers? 90% of the players you name are not meant to be indispensible anyway; tell me how you explain it.

The only one that I'm not happy with the management is Janku, but it may be attributed to lack of game play (as suggested by someone else) and unexpected long injury. Tell me who these 'etc. etc. etc.' are that are influential in our game play.

Oh yeah, and you may want to compare it with Inter Milan and see how many GREAT players have flopped over there, let alone Seedorf and Pirlo.

ANd oh yeah, count the players that have gone without success even they have left... how many people are saying Dhorasoo is great? How about Contra ? How about world-cup disappointment Coloccini? You tell me these are wrong decisions? Give me an answer.

England CLubs Prepare Italy Swoop

"Juventus, Fiorentina and AC Milan are set to be forced to sell many of their top players, with Chelsea and Arsenal also ready to swoop.

TRANSFER RUMOURS
Chelsea
Alessandro Nesta (Milan) , Fabio Cannavaro, Pavel Nedved, Gianluca Zambrotta (all Juve)
Manchester United
Patrick Vieira, Pavel Nedved (both Juve), Gennaro Gattuso (Milan), Luca Toni (Fiorentina)
Liverpool
Mauro Camoranesi, David Trezeguet (both Juve)
Arsenal
Gianluca Buffon, Lilian Thuram, Patrick Vieira, David Trezeguet (all Juve), Filippo Inzaghi (Milan)
Tottenham
Lilian Thuram (Juve), Filippo Inzaghi (Milan)"

I can understand why Milan may need to sell some players who's wages may be tricky to pay without UCL money, or who only want to play in UCL (or go 'for their family/a new challenge') - but I can't really see us having to sell many of our top players.

BBC?Looks like rubish to me.
We don't need money from UCL , we have Berlusconi and a new sponsor who brings in a lot more money.

If players want to play UCL they will have to wait a year or so because no one is leaving unless the board wants them to leave.
I can't see Liverpool paying for Camoranesi or Trezeguet.
I really don't see Inzaghi or Nedved leaving either.
And Gattuso has said he will stay with Milan.

from channel 4

Azzurri star Gennaro Gattuso’s future is in doubt again, after his agent admitted that the Rossoneri midfielder had not yet committed to Milan.

Gattuso had declared last week that he would stay at the San Siro regardless of the Calciopoli verdict stating: “I am certain that I will be at Milan next season and play for them in Serie A.”

However, after Friday’s sentence denied the Diavoli a place in next season’s Champions League, Ringhio appears to be having second thoughts.

“I’m going to sit down with Gennaro now in order to discuss the implications of what has happened,” Gattuso’s agent Andrea D’Amico stated. “Only after an in-depth chat can we decide what will be best for the future.”

There is some good news for the Milan faithful as ex-Parma hit man Alberto Gilardino and Brazilian prodigy Kaka’ have confirmed that they will stay with the club.

Yeah that is a rubbish article.

Pirlo Set For Milan Exit

Reports emanating from Italy claim Milan midfielder Andrea Pirlo is keen for a fresh start, with Spain his favoured destination.

The Italian World Cup winner has been strongly linked with a move away from the San Siro after some impressive displays for the Azzurri in Germany.

With Milan not involved in next season's UEFA Champions League following their guilty verdict in the match-fixing trial, some of the Rossoneri's biggest names are rumoured to be muttering their dissatisfaction behind the scenes.

Pirlo is thought to be one of those unhappy at the prospect of playing only domestic football next season and could be set to leave Milan.

A number of the continent's top clubs have been linked with the 27-year-old, including Chelsea, Manchester United, Arsenal, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich.

However, Pirlo's admission of his likeness for Spain will alert Real to the possibility of his signature, although Milan are still determined to hold onto their star midfielder, who has two years remaining on his current contract.

Milan have yet to comment on the situation but should they relent and allow Pirlo to leave, they would most likely step up their bid to sign Lyon's Mahamadou Diarra as a replacement.

Real Prepare 50 Million Euro Bid For Kaka

The Merengues are desperately trying to lure the Brazilian midfielder to Madrid.

Real Prepare 50 Million Euro Bid For Kaka

Despite extending his contract in the past weeks, Kaka might still end up with Real Madrid next season, as Fabio Capello's side are preparing a massive bid of 50 million Euros to try and sign the Brazilian ace.

However, Milan have already refused an initial offer of 30 million Euros and everything seems to indicate that they will refuse this new offer.

Still, Kaka would like to continue playing in the Champions League and might therefore be tempted to join Ronaldo and company in order to continue playing in Europe's most important competition.

Please make the rubbish stop ...
