Transfers And Rumors Time

Today’s post refers to all the Transfer Talks from the past days: Heading for Fabregas, Milan with a new sponsor? This and more - Today.

Massimo Oddo is returning from his loan period at Bayern Munich and start to think about a new future, Rossoneri-less. The 32-years-old-right-wingback spoke on Friday night about his future to radio program ‘Noi Biancocelesti’ on Radio Erre2: “It was a positive experience in Germany,” he said. “Too bad we didn’t win the league but Wolfsburg had a great second half of the season and deserved to win. Now I’ve returned to Italy and I will talk to Milan soon,” he stated. He continued to spick and said, “Last year I left because I did not feel appreciated, but if I feel faith in my abilities again I will stay. My feeling is that there is a 50% chance I will stay at Milan.” Oddo missed out his match against Northern Ireland as Italy coach Marcello Lippi has not found space to the wingback. The World Cup winner future with the Rossoneri is hanging on the balance as he it is 50-50 of staying.

The Rossoneri defender Daniele Bonera has chose to renew his contract with AC Milan until 2013. Bonera did not enjoyed so much from last year’s term with il Diavolo but the club have shown faith in him by adding a further three years to his contract. Bonera would like to stay with AC Milan for these years as expected - he said yes to the deal. “I am really happy with this renewal and it has come at a delicate moment for me,” Bonera told the club’s official website. Bonera who was under an injury for long time is now runs again; ready to start his summer trainings. “I haven’t played for five months and the renewal shows that the club have faith in me and this gives me motivation,” he said. Leonardo is the new coach of AC Milan, and Bonera is trusting him, and will do what he will be say to do. Unlike Oddo, Bonera’s future with AC Milan is clear like a baby ass.

I am little ashamed because I give 1000 words for Ricardo Kaka, and barely 200 for Andrea Pirlo. His saga is also interesting and I am promise that a special post about Pirlo will arrive as well. Chelsea seems very keen for Andrea Pirlo but I do not think the fans are. Anyway, the new club of Carlo Ancelotti wants Pirlo to their lines in this summer and would probably offer a bid on him. There were talks about swap the World Cup winner with Essien or even with Drogba. However, I cannot see it happening. The reports of Friday predicted €25 million over the Italian, nevertheless, the reports of today saying that Roman Abramovic could even offer €30 million fee in four years deal to the midfielder. Chelsea have already hold back from Kaka and now Ancelotti is looking for add some fantasy and flair to the middle together with strong midfielders likes of Frank Lampard, Michael Ballack and Michael Essien. On fourth of June, Pirlo said that he would like to stay, but the rumors did not stop then. “My English ? Ancelotti speaks it better! I, however, am happy at Milan,” he said then. Vice-President Adriano Galliani insists Pirlo is not for sale. But in football like in football, everything is not like is looks like.

Kaka seems likely to leave AC Milan next year for a Spanish adventure, now when he came back from Brazil from his national duty (Brazil won 4-0 and Kaka scored 1), all we need to wait for is the meeting with Berlusconi. The answer the saga will reveal on this Monday (tomorrow) and we hope for the best, which is negative answer to Perez’s offers. Some already claim he signed up at Los Blancos but we cannot be sure.

If Kaka leaves, Milan will have enough money to spend on some players, in any case, someone will have to do Kaka’s job. Few people been already named by the Rossoneri, and one of them is Arsenal Star Francesc Fabregas. La Gazzetta Dello Sport telling, that Milan will use the profit from Kaka is selling and will trade in Cesc. The reports claim the Spanish man is looking for a new adventure after six years with the Gunners. He is the captain of Arsenal but we saw stuff before (Nesta who was Lazio’s captain and moved to Milan). Mathieu Flamini and Philippe Senderos, have been trying to entice him into making the move to Milan, after they did this move by they own, though Senderos is on loan period. Fabregas may not be the keenest man to do a Italian move as he already said in the past that after Arsenal, all he wants is Barcelona (he grew up there), he is good player, so Barca thinks: hell, why not. I really do not think he will come but we cannot be sure about anything.

AC Milan owner Silvio Berlusconi has revealed that he wants CR7 in his team next year. All started when Barcelona beat up Manchester United in the final of the Champions League: Silvio Berlusconi is also Italy Prime Minister and the final was at Rome, Italy. Berlusconi serve the medals to each player including Cristiano Ronaldo. He gave him the medal as he whispering in his ear: I want you at Milan or something like that. CR7 smiled at him and went on. “Cristiano Ronaldo? I whispered in his ear and told him that I would like to see him play in Rossoneri colours, and he smiled at me,” Berlusconi told Studio Sport. “Who wouldn’t he want to come to a club like Milan?” He added. Maybe he suppose to be another replacement to Kaka like Cesc, but once again, I can’t see that happen now when also Real Madrid are offering him and the United wants a exaggerated sum over the Portuguese.

Milan and the agent of Clarence Seedorf said he is not for sell. Few clubs may be disappointed. “Seedorf is a Milan player 100 percent and will remain so until proven otherwise. I repeat, no current negotiations. I don’t know if something will happen in the next few days. We’ll see,” said Seedorf’s agent. Chelsea and Fenerbahce are interesting at the 33-years-old Dutchman. I do not think he will leave AC Milan, as his agent set about his staying, wearing Black & Red uniforms.

Alexandre Pato been also named as an option to Chelsea with Pirlo and Seedorf. “Milan have to decide on Pato’s situation, we are enthusiastic about Chelsea’s interest for the player, but Milan have the final decision,” Pato’s agent Gilmar Veloz said to Repubblica.it. “Pato has a contract with Milan but if the club were to find an agreement with Chelsea we would be open to start negotiations. At the moment I cannot give guarantees to the fans that Pato is staying at Milan, the club isn’t mine and only a member of the club’s management can give an answer to that question,” he added. Though those things, Adriano Galliani and Silvio Berlusconi are sure Pato will stay and they are the ones who decide that, so I do not think they will let him leave.

Juventus and Milan both are interesting at Atletico Madrid’s striker Diego Forlan. Milan have good relationship with Atletico and maybe it will be useful here. Forlan is a wonderful striker who scored 32 goals in 33 matches! That is a lot! Galliani have already promised world-class striker and maybe he meant him. Juventus are also wants him and will maybe swap him with David Trezeguet, who is likely to find him self in another club next year, after 9 years with the Old Lady. By the way, Milana are also interesting at David Trezeguet. About Forlan, maybe he will. I do not sure Atletico will let him leave, but heck, maybe they would.

AC Milan are going to have a new sponsor on the shirts: Fly Emirates going to make the things little easier to AC Milan bank account as they want to have a sponsor deal with the Rossoneri. According to Il Sole 24 Ore, the wealthy Al Matktoum family are looking into a deal with the Milan club that would see the Rossoneri bring in a proposed €20m for an initial deal, that would see the Emirates logo take pride of place on the Milan jersey in place of current sponsors Bwin. This initial go through it could signal the beginning of a long-standing relationship, which would tie the two parties together in a much bigger deal including a new stadium. Such an agreement could net the Rossoneri increased revenue of over €400m. Good or bad? I do not know.

Milan wants few more players; I did and am report about them every time. Have good Sunday all.
