Mercato Rossonero: Milan Transfer Activity Inside Out

Ganso wrote:acerbi cant be much worse than mexes

so he is great

kevin constant???

i would of preferred marco rigoni tbh.

another mediocre player on the squad! great job galliani!

Acerbi signing is a good signing I think, Constant eh I'll give him the benefit of the doubt for now.

well i mean constant is a replacement for muntari, and i dont see muntari being very instrumental for us this season if we signed another midfielder, so im not worried. (fingers crossed)

We signed Valoti 100%, I think we should keep him and use him as a back up trequartista, grow the kid!!!

You think he has it in him ? I think El Shaarawy must make this position his own next season , more than anyone .

I would to like find out if Valoti can play deeper , well , like Busquets in particular.
Buuut , i doubt Allegri would trust him a role in the 11 anyway , or even change the 4-3-1-2 formation ..

Why can't he just force Ancelotti's diamond in the middle fulltime, with a technical player to occupy Pirlo's old place , let's say Montolivo , and have Valoti as his sub..

valoti? he might get some minutes in the coppa italia. thats about it though.

valoti will unfortunately end up like merkel.

We've barely seen anything from Valoti. It's not fair to say if he will or won't be successful next season.

I'll wait til he plays some pre-season before I make any judgements

I've seen Valoti a lot with the primavera and the kid has immense talent. The standouts for me are of course Ely, De Sciglio, Comi, Calvano and Valoti. But, also there is Hottor and Innocenti who are two very talented youngsters we never hear anything about. I'd take both right now in the first team.

young player?even worse,young player from our own academy? Allegri:"Ewww"

i remember some hype around the hottor kid when we signed him 2 seasons ago? or maybe 3.

I remember when we signed Hotter, he was supposed to be really talented, I think that was like 3 years ago. Maybe we will see him during the preseason with the rest of the promising youngsters

Mathieu Flamini looks set to leave AC Milan this summer, according to vice president Adriano Galliani.

The Frenchman joined the Rossoneri in 2008 following a successful four-year spell at Arsenal, but sat out the majority of last season with a serious knee injury, and that looks to have been a deciding factor in the club's plans.

"His time is up because too much time has passed," Galliani said during an interview in Milan.

"We spoke to his agent and said that we don't expect anything else from the player. By the end of August another midfielder will arrive, which could be [Alberto] Aquilani or someone else.

"We haven't spoken yet to Aquilani. He's a Liverpool player."

Galliani also spoke about the proposed transfers of Genoa duo Francesco Acerbi and Kevin Constant.

"Until we do the medicals we're not saying anything, but [Acerbi] seems healthy," he hinted.

"I think he's a fantastic centre-back with plenty of room for growth which he'll get at Milan. His willingness to come to Milan made the difference.

"[Constant] was snapped up quickly thanks to [Genoa president Enrico] Preziosi, which was very nice. He's a player we wanted last year, and we agreed with the coach [Massimiliano Allegri] when we decided to buy him after learning about [Sulley] Muntari's injury."

The Ghanaian midfielder tore his anterior cruciate ligament and is expected to be out for six months.

"Muntari had a brutal injury. I've never seen such a bad one happen during the summer break," Galliani concluded.

I can remember seeing him when he played for chievo against us,was really lively and was good on the ball as well,He's going to further eat up Strasser's minutes on the pitch

I just read on milannews.it translated page that Mourinho is willing to give 20 million plus Kaka for Boateng. I would like to see Kaka back in Milan shirt but i also would like for Boateng to stay. In this Milan line-up i really care for Silva, Ibrahimovic and Boateng. I dont know what to say about this deal if it's true and if it's real. What do you guys think about it?

Selling boateng is a poor decision. HOWEVER, it has its merits.

- injured a lot (probably the same as KaKa)
- this would free up our CAM position, with him on the team, he is always guaranteed it, since he's not great in a 3 man midfield
- 20 m is a lot. Instead of kaka we should ask for Sahin.

However, changing too much of the team at the same time is a bad decision. And honestly, Boateng has been amazing for us, I don't think anyone wants him gone. He's still (somewhat) young so we need him.

Mourinho to bring us back what we miss since 2009 plus 20m .

I knew he was a Milanista all along

you guys seriously believe in that?

20M is already more than what boateng is worth,then + kaka is just overkill

Mourinho is a Milanista y u no see it , he'll do it you see

Galliani said in an interview that Montolivo will play at RM and that another regista will arrive!! the only ones we have been linked to is Strootman, and sahin MAKE IT HAPPEN!!!

Call me crazy , but i want Aquilani . Aquilani and Montolivo on the pitch.. We can make big stuff in Serie A next season if both of them are on the field.



make it happen Max . Troll em all

No DMs Dante, no way in hell that happening.

That's going to be more likely a Traore -Nocerino - Injured Muntari(because he's that awesome !)

I know , i know.. i am just sick of dms , i want the diamond back with the all time favourite deep lying playmaker back

Not sure if we even going to buy Aquilani in the first place , else he could do it given some time. But if we bought Strootman ... We could play this , Nocerino on the left which he likes , Monty on the right and Strootman behind them.

With a good regista , Allegri will be mad not to make it our permanent formation or at least give it a big try next season .

Roma ===> Gabriel (Check)

Nesta ===> Acerbi (Check)

Zambrotta ===> Didac Vila (Check)

Mesbah ===> (???) (Not Yet Check)

Aquilani ===> Montolivo (Check)

Muntari ===> (Who gives a F*CK?)

Flamini ===> Traore (Check)

Gattuso ===> Constant (Check)

Van Bommel ===> (???) (Not Yet Check)

Seedorf ===> (???) (Not Yet Check)


If you consider all the options, you'll conclude that we will have three or four more signings to make, depending on how many will leave, of course.

Boateng, Ibra, Robinho and Didac supposedly have a suitor each i.e. Real, PSG, Malaga and Valencia respectively.


As for those who are strongly linked, the Real Madrid trio Lass, Sahin and Ricky Kaka plus a full-back for the left "Terzino" slot.


I just hope Muntari, Mesbah and Robinho leave and never look back.

And I hope the aforesaid quartet arrive and they, too, won't have to look back (You know, end of loan deal? That).

Is that too much to ask? Probably not...

But then, yeah. Galliani sure thinks so!

I think we need to take the transfer market as it goes. Theres not much we can do. Even the 2011 transfer market was looking dull until the last minute. Granted, circumstances are a bit different now but Milan's transfer market can be very, very unpredictable.

I still believe we'll move for Sahin and Strootman. And if another attacker leaves, then Tevez will arrive.
