Mercato Rossonero: Milan Transfer Activity Inside Out

Robinho GTFO

Good loan move for Niang, Montpellier can have Zaccardo outright of they want him.

i am hoping we dont sign naingolaan. he is nothing special. just a hefty price tag on his head.

he just have physical presence, work rate, and thats about it. if he was someone like de jong who apart from work rate and defensive qualities offer a lot more to the game... then yea but he is a poor quality player.

dont want to see another average player in our team. we just had enough.

Gazzeta Dello Sport- Milan closing in on Radja Nainngollan.

Nainngollan is much better than "average".

IMO, Nainggolan is a top 10 midfielder in Serie a.

What is going to be the fee involved? If it is 15-18 million could'nt we have spent that on the summer on Strootman?

I was hyping Strootman before and I'm glad he's proved me right, but I'm annoyed Roma got him instead of us. Anyway, I thought Roma paid 20 million euros for him.

I don't think the management knew how desperate the team is for a top box to box midfielder during the summer, they just realized that after all what we have gone through so far. The changes are finally happening but at the wrong time.

Roma paid 17 million for him.

AC Milan have dismissed a report that owner Silvio Berlusconi wants to sell star striker Mario Balotelli during the January transfer window.

According to Il Secolo XIX, the former Italian Prime Minister has had enough of the 23-year-old's erratic behaviour, but the Rossoneri have denied that Berlusconi wants rid of Balotelli.

"AC Milan denies absolutely and vehemently the statements that have been attributed to the president of Milan about a possible placement of Mario Balotelli on the market," read a statement on the club's official website.

Balotelli, who was once described as "a rotten apple" by Berlusconi, only arrived at Milanello from Manchester City in January and played a key role in a resurgence that saw Massimiliano Allegri's men qualify for the Champions League, with the attacker hitting 12 goals in 13 Serie A appearances.

He has hit six goals this season but continues to court controversy on and off the field and has recently been linked with a reunion with former Inter boss Jose Mourinho at Chelsea.

Balotelli's Agent wrote: "Mario wishes to leave Milan in January. We don’t know where he will go at the moment, we are looking at the different possibilities. Chelsea is one of the options, but there has been no offers and I cannot comment [on whether] we have been contacted."

What do you guys make of all this?

Why on Earth would Mou want Balo and vice versa?

I think Mourinho never would coach Balotelli again
anyway these are old words of Raiola 2 months ago ...but he didn't say exactly so, evidently has been misrepresented

he said siimply  " Balo again with Mourinho? theoretically yes, Balotelli is a great striker and therefore he could play in Chelsea "

the interview is here, from 1:47 he talks about this ... unfortunately it 's in italian language

Roma is also heavily interested in D'Ambrosio.

According to various reports, including from Di marzio, we are going to get a CM. Naingollan and Jorginho are the main targets. We have rejected some bids for Cristante because he will used as a makeweight for whichever of these two we will try to get.

Also CDS is linking us with Buttner   

Mino Raiola, agent of AC Milan striker Mario Balotelli, has reportedly met with Galatasaray to discuss a possible deal for the player this winter.

The 23-year-old has been linked with a move away from the Rossoneri during the January transfer window due to his inconsistency on the pitch this season, though both the club and his agent have repeatedly denied rumours regarding his departure.

According to Turkish website Arcaajans.com, Raiola recently met with Gala executives to discuss the possibility of arranging an agreement for the Italian international this month, as the club’s coach Roberto Mancini is apparently still fond of the striker based on their previous time together at Manchester City.

The Diavolo are yet to receive any bids from Galatasaray for Super Mario, but some sources expect talks to begin once Milan vice president Adriano Galliani returns from Brazil.

Mario Balotelli has only been with AC Milan since joining from Manchester City during last season’s January transfer window and has scored a total of 18 goals in his 25 Serie A appearances thus far.

Galatasaray

Claudio Vigorelli, agent of AC Milan goalkeeper Christian Abbiati, has revealed that the player is looking to sign a one-year extension with the Rossoneri.

The 36-year-old’s current deal with the Diavolo is set to expire at the end of the season in June and he’s recently hinted that he could retire if the club decides to let him go.

Vigorelli spoke to TMW about the veteran goalkeeper’s situation at Milan and admitted that negotiations for a renewal are still yet to take place.

“There is a love between Abbiati and AC Milan which will last forever,” said the agent.

“If Milan want to renew his contract for a further season then Christian would accept because I don’t think he can see himself at another club.

“There are positive sensations, but, like always, we will have to meet with vice president Adriano Galliani.”

Christian Abbiati joined the Rossoneri from lower league side Monza in 1998 and has 251 Serie A appearances with the club thus far. He’s left Milan three times since his arrival on loan to Juventus for the 2005-06 season, Torino for the 2006-07 season and Atletico Madrid for the 2007-08 season

AC Milan starlet Bryan Cristante is reportedly a player much liked by Cagliari but the Sardi are yet to make contact with the 18-year-old’s entourage.

The promising midfielder has only seen five minutes of playing time so far this season during his one substitute appearance, and is keen on a move away from Milanello in January, with Livorno, Torino and a host of Serie B clubs willing to offer him more first team opportunities.

As reported by MilanNews.it, the Rossoneri are also preparing to include the co-ownership of the Italian Under-19 international as part of an offer to bring Cagliari’s Belgian midfield maestro Radja Nainggolan to the Stadio San Siro.

With Isolani President Massimo Cellino recently making it clear that the 25-year-old would be leaving Sardinia during the winter transfer window, Milan are currently favourites to land the talented mediano.

AC Milan have joined West Ham United in an approach for Bordeaux and Senegalese international Ludovic Sane.

The 26 year-old can play in central defense or as a holding midfielder where he exploits his own physical traits.

According to ilsussidiario.net the player has attracted interest from the Rossoneri and London-based club West Ham.

Milan are looking to improve on the defensive set-backs of last year and Sane would provide support for the back-line.

Rumours in the French media suggest Sane has had a falling out with Bordeaux coach Francis Gillot and is seeking a move.

St Etienne are also vying for the player’s signature with €6 million thought to be enough to secure his services.

Sane has played 141 competitive matches for Bordeaux with his contract expiring in June 2014.

Does anyone know anything about him?

AC Milan could seek to replace Mario Balotelli with Manchester City forward Edin Dzeko should the Italian leave.

Recent reports suggest the agent of Balotelli met to discuss a January move to Galatasaray yet talks remain speculative.

According to Corriere dello Sport the Rossoneri could look to bring in Bosnian striker Edin Dzeko as a replacement.

The 27 year-old has grown tired of his lack of playing time in England with both Sergio Aguero and now Alvaro Negredo ahead in the pecking order.

Dzeko has been linked with il Diavolo in the past and was even seen sporting his own Milan jersey during his time at Wolfsburg.

Club vice-president Adriano Galliani has categorically refused to sell Balotelli despite the striker’s poor form and attitude.

Similarly Manchester City coach Manuel Pellegrini plans to keep hold of Dzeko with the injury to the aforementioned Aguero.

Dzeko has made over 120 appearances in England scoring 50 goals.

lol is this 2009 again? Might as well get Cissokho another medical again.

Claudio Vigorelli, agent of Newcastle United defender Davide Santon, has revealed that the AC Milan target has no desire of leaving the English club any time soon.

The Rossoneri are thought to be keen on signing the 23-year-old during the January transfer window, but his agent claims that the Italian international is fully satisfied with his role in the Magpies’ squad and loves playing in the Premier League.

Vigorelli spoke to Eurosport about his client’s transfer situation and closed to the door on a possible move to AC Milan this winter.

“Davide is doing wonderfully at Newcastle,” said the agent.

“He’s secured his position, he’s already played in 19 games this season and he loves English football.

“He certainly won’t leave the club now and I don’t think he’ll even have the desire to do so in the future.”

Davide Santon joined the Toon from Inter in 2011 and has scored one goal in his total of 74 league appearances for the club thus far.

AC Milan are in pole position to sign Radja Nainggolan from Cagliari, whilst Inter continue to push for a deal for Tottenham Hotspur’s Erik Lamela.

There is much speculation surrounding both Milan clubs as they look to improve on their fortunes for the second half of the season.

Gazzetta dello Sport are reporting that the Rossoneri are favourites to land Belgian midfielder Nainggolan with an offer of €7 million plus half the ownership of Bryan Cristante.

It is thought that Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani hopes to offload two youngsters in Brazilian goalkeeper Gabriel and Colombian defender Jherson Vergara before finalising an offer for the Cagliari enforcer.

On the blue side of Milan, Inter are expected to restart negotiations with Chelsea for the sale of Fredy Guarin by the weekend, with Gazzetta suggesting that a €15 million fee could be enough to take the marauding midfielder to West London.

Nerazzurri coach Walter Mazzarri will be allowed to spend any money generated from the potential sale of the Colombian international and could use the proceeds to bring Lamela to Inter, who was again an unused substitute for Tottenham in their victory at Manchester United on Wednesday.

According to my source @Milanello, all the news about a Balotelli transfer are false. It is just the media trying to stir something.

Should I laugh or cry?

AC Milan are looking at the prospect of replacing manager Massimillano Allegri after approaching Andre Villas-Boas with the opportunity of managing the Italian giants.

The former Tottenham Hotspur coach was sacked by the London side during this season’s Premier League after their 5-0 loss to Liverpool and could take the top job at the Rossoneri before the start of the next season.

According to English newspaper the Daily Mirror, AC Milan are looking at Andre Villas-Boas to take over the reigns at the San Siro after the Portuguese manager had been contacted by Milan officials about his services and the possibility of replacing current head coach Massimiliano Allegri.

Vills-Boas has also been tracked by English side West Brom Albion with the possibility of taking their vacant position and becoming manager but he rejected the chance to speak to the club.
