Alberto Gilardino to Milan??

None of us here (that I know of), has spoken to Galliani or Berlu, so no one knows whast will happen.

The good thing is that the player wants to come to Milan, and in this age of player power, that is not to be scoffed at.

Think positively, project positive energies in your thoughts regarding this transfer, and it will happen...faith can move mountains...

Berlusconi ready to fund AC Milan bid for Gilardino

AC Milan patron Silvio Berlusconi has given the green light for a bid to be made for Parma striker Alberto Gilardino.

Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani held crunch talks with Berlusconi over the weekend about Gilardino's transfer and the Milan majority shareholder has reportedly agreed to personally fund the deal.

Including Gilardino's £2 million-a-year contract, the striker's signing could cost Milan a cool £35 million, with Parma demanding £24 million as a transfer fee.

Galliani needed Berlusconi's personal backing to go ahead with the move and will now seek talks with Parma chief Luca Baraldi in the next 24 hours.

Gilardino has demanded his future be resolved before the relegation playoff against Bologna. His agent, Beppe Bonetto, said on Friday: "He wants to stay in Italy and his preferred choice is Milan. The player has asked for his future to be decided soon, so he can face the relegation battle without any extra pressure."

Well, Parma are losing 0-1 to Bologna...63rd min...what are the odds Gila will stay if they get relegated? Nil in my book..

What are the odds Milan will sign him tomorrow, or right after the match? 1-1 in my book....

Unless I need a new book...

I think Parma will win the next game and stay in serie A and I also hope so. They where without many important players in this game and will get some back for the next one. While Bologna at the same time will miss their starting inner midfield pair. If you didn't know, Gilardino was one of the missing players in this first game.

any transfer will be announced after the second game that is on saturday.

can't wait till next week ....

c'mon milan !!!

as the days are passing by, gilardino's move is becoming more confusing.. if you were to ask me a month ago, if we were gonna sign him, i'd say for sure.. but now.. i dont know.. i'd say 60% yes..

i really hope parma win the next game.. any win for them would be fine..i hope they stay as to me, they are a big club and will be back to their winning ways next season..

Let me add that the signing of great players can sometimes come very late, personally I suspect that has something to do with season ticket sales. A late big signing would boost the tickets sales a bit more.

If you are a woman, don't PM me anymore. <-- haha



anyways, I think everyone just wants Milan to sign him quickly as Juve are actually putting one eye on this transfer.

When he will come??????????????? damn I can`t wait! Plz sign him now!

Rumoured tensions with Chelsea suggest Hernan Crespo might not remain at Milan, though Parma admit the Alberto Gilardino move is coming to a head.


Argentine hitman Crespo told newspapers last week that he was confident of renewing his loan spell at the San Siro with the aid of a pay cut, but it’s claimed problems have hit the deal.


Milan are said to be angry at Chelsea’s persistent interest in Andriy Shevchenko and Gennaro Gattuso, while the Stamford Bridge side considers the £8.6m asking price for Kakha Kaladze to be too high.


The end result could be to bring Crespo back to the Premiership, a blow that would be smoothed over for Coach Carlo Ancelotti by the arrival of Gilardino.


This is another sticking point, as the other main contenders for the Parma top scorer are Chelsea, so the two clubs are duelling on the market.


“Next week we will sit down around the table with Gilardino and discuss everything,” revealed Parma technical director Oreste Cinquini on Radio Radio.


The Italian international and his agent have repeatedly confirmed that their number one choice is Milan, but that a considerably better financial offer from Chelsea will not be dismissed out of hand.


“Alberto has expressed a clear preference for his future, but he is prepared to evaluate other options so as not to penalise Parma. The clubs interested in him are world class and we’ll try to make him happy.”

This story smacks of a few small lies. For example, I don't believe that Milan are 'angry' with Chelsea, though anyone with good taste should be.

I personally think Crespo will stay and Gilardino will come. I would much rather lose out on the former than the latter. I really hope Milan give Parma the money they need.

On a side note: would anyone care if Chelsea dropped off the face of the earth? I am starting to hate them more than Man U.

Chelsea are very annoying with their persistence besides knowing we won't sell our stars, which seems VERY arrogant of them.

Either way, I think Gila will be heading our way, despite all the Chelsea talk.
