    the solution I thought of was

    2- Figo plays with Chivu at Inter.
    3- Chivu played with Perrotta at Roma.

    I don't think Rossi ever played with Maldini at Milan. Maldini was still in the primavera when Rossi left Milan.

    Going by Maldini's Wiki Biography:

    "Maldini made his league debut on 20 January 1985, at the age of sixteen, against Udinese Calcio as a halftime substitution for the injured Sergio Battistini.[3][4] It would be his only league appearance of the campaign, but he was in the starting eleven the following season."

    Roosi was there in 85/86 season.

    If that's not true ... I'd add the Baresi hook in to connect Rossi to Maldini :p
