MILAN - Gazzeta dello Sport reports an interview with Alberto Gilardino: ’Now the Parma judge, that's all we need! He explained that my contract will have to be pu up for a real auction. To be honest, I'm not so happy. I'm not an item of estate, a thing or an object. If nothing moves, I'll join Parma pre-season camp on Monday. But it will be different from what I had expected. And I'm really sorry for this. Fiorentina wanted to sign me, among the big clubs, no-one else made an offer for me. If it were not Milan, it will be bad for everyone: I'll leave as a free agent in 2007.'

To summarises what Gila trying to say is that he is trying to tell parma to sell him now or he will be a free agent in 2007 where parma won't even get a single cents.
At the end of the day parma have no chice but to sell gila to us unless some other club steal him under our nose which I think highly unlikely.

BONETTO: 'La nostra è una posizione chiara'
17/07/2005
MILANO - ’Domani scade quello che noi riteniamo l’ultimatum: o Gilardino va al Milan o resta al Parma’. Cosi’ Giuseppe Bonetto, il cui gruppo di procuratori cura gli interessi di Alberto Gilardino. ’La nostra e’ una posizione chiara - spiega -. Dico solo che se per caso domani non andasse in porto il trasferimento di Gila al Milan, non e’ detto che nell’ipotesi il Parma dovesse successivamente ripensarci e offrire il giocatore tra dieci giorni, a prescindere dal prezzo, troverebbe il Milan sempre disponibile ad accogliere il giocatore’.

Monday is D-Day for Gila Sunday 17 July, 2005

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

Alberto Gilardino’s agent insists the striker’s future will be resolved on Monday – with the player joining Milan or staying at Parma.

"The ultimatum of either joining Milan or remaining will expire tomorrow," said Beppe Bonetto on Sunday evening.

"If no deal is reached over the next few hours then it is not certain by any means that Milan will still be ready to sign him if Parma change their mind in ten days time."

It had looked almost certain that the Italian international would join the Rossoneri in a £17m transfer.

But the proposed switch has been held up by Parma's administrators, who now want the club to sell the star to the highest bidder rather than simply to his preferred destination.

"A judge has decided that an auction was needed. I can't say I am happy because I am not a house or an object, but a person," explained the 23-year-old.

"I have spent three fantastic years at Parma, but everyone knows the situation. For me it is time to leave, and it's fairly obvious that I would go to Milan for professional reasons.

"Between the big clubs - those who are in the Champions’ League - only Milan have made an offer.

"The others have done nothing, probably because football has changed and you have to be very specific in your transfer aims now.

"I want to stay in Italy and go to Milan. They have shown me a plan for the future and how I fit into that."

Indeed, the player’s agent believes that only one other club have made an attempt to land the forward.

"As far as I know, Fiorentina have bid more or less the same figure as Milan," continued Bonetto.

"But talks didn’t get going because the player doesn’t want to move to Florence. He just wants Milan – it is as simple as that."

C'mon Gilla From The Bottom Of Our Heart's We Whant U,c'mon Damnet!!!

Know What flippen hell man when r we going to get him ? another twist in this story ?

Everything that has been posted here Saturday on has said the same thing. Milan want Gila, Gila wants only Milan and the D-day is tomorrow. The judge is considering an auction, but Gila would either go to Milan or stay with Parma.

I think tomorrow will be a tense day for us Milanisti. I hope for the best. But if the situation is not resolved tomorrow, then I don't think it will be the end of this saga.

One thing is for sure...Parma are right to want the most money but they are being f*$*ing ridiculous about this whole thing. There aren't even other offers on the table what makes them think there will be in the bext few days. This thing has been going on for months...surely Chelsea, Inter etc would have jumped in by now.

I am optimistic. Forza Milan!

agree parma is f''''$# up they must sell GILA or they will be TOTTALLY FU... UP!!!

Monday i will go to Milan or stay at Parma.

Nice ,nice,nice

at first, i was almost certain the Moggi was going for Gila as a surprise, now im not sure.. it could still happen, but, just to prove to u all the Juve will not go for him, they already have 5 good strikers in the likes of Del Piero, Trezeguet, Ibrahimovic, Mutu, and Miccoli! Okay, some of you will say that Miccoli will be sold, but still they will have 4. So I dont think we need to worry about Juve at all, but still, i think he´ll have another move on the market, but i dont know if it´ll be involving Gila..

Lets all wait till tomorrow folks! Tomorrow is the day we will get Gila, and if not, Ronaldo
