Alberto Gilardino to Milan??

Hopefully, Galliani will do the same like Nesta transfer.

Milan have dismissed speculation that they have been in talks with Parma regarding Alberto Gilardino.

Some stories in Italy claim that the Rossoneri have shown an interest which has hampered Roma’s attempts to sign the striker.

But Vice-president Adriano Galliani has today insisted that the Under-21 international is not a target.

"Milan have never opened negotiations for the Parma player," stated Galliani. "However, if we wanted to then we wouldn’t need to explain our actions to anyone."

Whispers have suggested that Milan have put pressure on the Gialloblu to keep the player for one more season – much to the annoyance of Roma. Yet Galliani rubbished that theory.

"All that has happened is that one club has decided to not sell a player to another club," he continued.

"I see no reason why we should look to block the transfers of any Roma targets."

Milan were linked with Gilardino given the fitness problems of international striker Filippo Inzaghi.

"We already have four strikers at this club," added Galliani. "They are Andriy Shevchenko, Inzaghi, Jon Dahl Tomasson and Hernan Crespo.

"In other words, we have four players for only two first team places. That is more than enough for us."

IMO Gilardino is the next main Italian striker (next Del-Piero or Vieri if u want), and if he'll come play for milan that would be fantastic.

I really hope Galliani is lying, as usual

Why doesn't someone just create a new thread in the discussion forum to discuss whether Catennacio has a place in football or not and whether attacking football is better or not.

Onto Gilardinho, I smell something fishy from Galliani. I don't think we'll get him this summer, but I can picture him with us next summer.

Could the moderators merge this with the transfer thread.

I don't think any of the rumours on the net suggest that Milan might be getting Gila this summer but from next season. As for Galliani and "fishy statements" I think I have heard that one before.

What are you talking about, this is the transfers FORUM and there is no other thread on Gilardino. The transfer thread is on any transfers and no particular ones.

As for Gila, Maldini just said, quoted on calciomercato.com, that Gilardino has shown on the Olimpics that he is above the rest and is definitely ready to play for a big club. Hopefully, that was a hint.

I already merged this thread, couple of the posts above were made in the Discussions forum.

I am with those that believe Gila will end up here sometime in his career but it won't be now

Sorry, Dil Dil had posted a new thread in the discussion forum and I asked for it to be merged here seeing as most are already discussing here.

rezag was very quick to merge them, I guess my request looks quite silly now.

Oh, sorry my bad.

I heard today that Milan will loan out both Collo and Pozzi to Lazio. Well, this is a good news for our future, as I don't see that Lazio could buy those two, then they also can gained a very valuable experience.
But I'm start to worry w/ our striker department. So far we have four great strikers, but Pippo seems that he'll can't make it til next season, and I've just realized that we're gonna set to play more than 34 games in seri A. So if we're about to loan Pozzi, and Pippo still hampered by this ankle injury too, we're only have 3 strikers. Also, with alot of games like this( Seri A, Champions League, Italian Cup), I think our strikers will be drained and tired. So I think we need 1 more stiker, either we loan him in or buy him. Unless Pippo recover, I think we still need 1 more striker.

cassano?? i don't think so!! rafael van der vart maybe?!

20m euros for Gila? And Torres would be twice expensive since Chelski involved? Do you like it realized?

i think gila would come for something like 12M ... since parma are in serious trouble and their season is going really bad so they must offload him. i hope he comes, that if crespo doesnt manage to find his form.
