Alex from PSV to Milan?

yes we need young defenders next season. how about kaka's brother? he plays in milan's primavera team. he was born in 1985. give him a chance!
christian maldini is maldini's third generation in milan, amazing! the funny thing is they are all defenders. i am looking forward to see christian in milan's senior team in 10 years time!

It will be good to get Alex.
For those talking about Cicinho, he has agreed to join Madrid in January.
Also, I believe the Italian transfer rules now state that a club may only bring in one non-EU player from abroad (outside Italy) each season. So if Alex were to come, Milan would only be able to buy EU players other than him. Or non-EU players from any Italian club.

Tobinho, when did Cicinho agree to the Real move?

I searched all over the net, I couldn't find anything yet on Cicinho agreeing the move. I believe that Real have first-option, i am not sure if they will be taking him thus yet given their weak defence. Alex would be a better choice for them.

REAL MADRID WIN THE RACE FOR CICINHO
Brazilian international Cicinho will join Real Madrid in January, after São Paulo's participation in the F.I.F.A World Club Championships has come to an end. In recent months, the flying wingback has been the subject of interest from a who's who of European clubs, including Manchester United, Juventus and A.C Milan. But it's the Spanish giants that have emerged triumphant, in the hotly-contested battle for his signature. The Los Merengues club will shell out a total of (US)$12 million for the 25-year-old, with 60% of that fee going to Libertadores champions.

"It's a great deal all round - for me, my representatives and São Paulo," said a beaming Cicinho. "I will be an honour to wear the shirt of Real Madrid and a privilege to touch the ball in the (Spanish) championship. I'm so happy to be going to such a club, who have Brazilians like Roberto Carlos and Ronaldo."

The ex-Atlético Mineiro ace then declared that he will remain fully committed to the Brazilian club's cause, until he makes his departure at the start of 2006. "I will defend São Paulo with everything I have got, in the Brasileiro, the Copa Sul-Americana and the World Club Championships," he decalred.

Cicinho - a player renowned for his lightening raids down the right flank - will have to do battle for a first team place, when he does arrive in the Spanish capital. Real's current right-fullback is the reputable Michel Salgado.

I BEG TO DIFFER, even though I think Oddo would also do a decent job

I watched PSV x Ajax game this sunday, and Alex was GIANT one more time...What amaze me about Alex, are its instincts...and this is what it differentiates, de good defenders for the world class...
I just imagine Alex w/ 26yrs, after learning still more with Paolo and Nesta

really hope we could get him without Chelsea intervening.. i know kenyon will give us a haaaaaaard time getting him

I agreed...but we have an advantage. Alex wants to play in Milan!!! This is the great thing about to be a Milan suporter. This organization give the players a superb treatment, and this does not pass unfurnished for players outside the club...

Yes, but Crespo was a Chelsea player on loan out, we wanted to keep him and we wanted to stay, and we all know what happened.

I hope Alex refuses to play for Brazil national team so he cant get a work permit to join Chelsea, now THAT is sacrifice! :P

Milan will allow Stam departure
Thursday 27 October, 2005
Jaap Stam looks almost certain to quit Milan in the summer after the Rossoneri opened the door for his exit.

The 33-year-old stopper is eager for a return to Holland and a transfer now seems almost inevitable.

"If Stam wants to return to Holland then we will look to please him," stated boss Carlo Ancelotti.

"Milan are not a club who will stand in anybody’s way, but Stam won’t be leaving us before June."

Although happy at Milan, the former Manchester United defender wants to depart for personal reasons.

"Jaap is very content in Italy and is contracted to the club for another two years," his agent Henk Van Ginkel stated this week.

"However, Stam wants to go back home to Holland so that he can totally dedicate himself to his family.

"Two clubs have already said they are interested in him. We’ll now have to speak to Milan and see what can be done."

It’s understood that PSV Eindhoven, where Stam played between 1996-1998, and Heerenveen are keen on his signature.

However, the player maintains that he wants to leave the European giants on a high if possible.

"I will make a decision on my future at the end of this season," stated the signing from Lazio.

"But my only thought right now is to win something important with Milan first."

Simic needs first team football
By Vlatko Siljanovski - Created on 25 Oct 2005

Croatian international defender Dario Simic wants to leave Milan in the January transfer window in order to keep his place for the World Cup in Germany next year.

The 29-year-old, who with 75 caps is Croatia's second most capped player, has been out of favour with coach Carlo Ancelotti and is yet to play this season.

"I spoke to vice-president [Adriano] Galliani before the PSV game and told him that my primary wish is to play the rest of the season in order to keep my place in the national team," Simic explained.

"I hope to have a clear view on the options available when December comes. The money I will be getting here in Milan will not be an important factor," he stressed.

Simic was strongly linked with a move to Everton at the end of last season but nothing materialised and he does not have a preferred destination.

"I am not sure whether I will be leaving Italy or not."

Now with two of our defenders "wanting away" it seems the perfect time to invest in a YOUNG, talented defender, such as Alex.

YESSS i cant believe it! ANYONE is better than Simic! im so happy to know he wants to leave.. maybe we can get terlizzi ?

I think Galliani will pursuade him to stay for the rest of the season, but next summer we really need to change BIG in our defence - with Costacurta, Simic and Stam all leaving...

Can someone tell me if Alex belongs to Chelsea.
