    Interests:

    Multiple sources claim Lazio captain Lucas Biglia will join Milan for €22m plus €3m bonuses,
    signing a three-year contract. (calciomercato is reporting it a done deal)
    Alvarro Morata - Madrid want $90m, good luck,
    Belotti - Milan offering three players in their offer to bring the €100mill figure down; Gabriel, Luca Antonelli and Juraj Kucka will be offered in exchange, along with €70m.
    Moussa Dembelé
    Andrea Conti
    Luca Modric talking about potentially leaving Madrid and joining his boyhood favorite club Milan. He's also been linked with a move to Bayern. If he came, what would we do with Montolivo? :)

    So far confirmed in:
    Frank Kessi
    Ricardo Rodriguez
    Mateo Musacchio

    On the way out:
    Mattia De Sciglio
    Carlos Bacca

    from Football Italia
    Milan have reportedly made the first formal offer for Andrea Belotti, but Torino want at least €70m cash plus players

    The striker has a release clause in his contract worth €100m, but it is valid only for clubs outside of Italy.

    According to Sky Sport Italia, the Rossoneri approached Toro today with their first genuine proposal for Il Gallo, but it was considered far too low.

    They want at least €70m cash plus a selection of players, such as Juraj Kucka and M’Baye Niang, both appreciated by former Milan Coach Sinisa Mihajlovic....

    Milan has an agreement with Lazio for both Keita and Biglia for €50m, just waiting for Keita to say yes. And we've joined the race for PSG's Krychowiak.

    We have a confirmed deal with Lazio for Keita but his agent wants to see what Juve will offer first. Conti is also a target. They met with his agent for 3 hours today. Asking price €20m.

    Haven't seen enough of him to guesstimate whether he's worth it or not, but three other big clubs are after him; Chelsea, Zenit, Inter...oh and Napoli too.

    good write-up...

    Milan mean business

    Milan's rocket-fuelled start to the summer transfer session is about sending a message to Italy and Europe, writes Adam Summerton.


    When it comes to football club ownership, as many supporters have found to their cost, actions most definitely speak louder than words. It’s why followers of Milan seem understandably optimistic after a very pro-active summer so far by the club’s new owners.

    The Rossoneri were always going to be in a greater rush than most, not least because their season begins in the third qualifying round of the Europa League on July 27. But the planning and spending we’ve seen so far is about much more than just being ready for that tie, as they seem really intent on sending out a message that they mean business.

    By June 8, to have extended Vincenzo Montella’s contract until 2019 and signed Mateo Musacchio, Franck Kessie and Ricardo Rodriguez is, just in terms of organisation and administration, a pretty impressive feat. And we hear there is still much more to come, with exciting names like Andrea Conti, Keita Balde Diao, Lucas Biglia and Andrea Belotti being spoken of.

    It must be hard for Milan supporters, so eager for a return to the good old days, not to start getting carried away, but that would be a mistake. Yes, there is much to be positive and optimistic about, but there is also an awful lot of rebuilding still to do, and it’s so important that this is recognised and remembered – for the foreseeable future feet need to stay firmly on the ground.

    I say this because I’ve observed a club that has been held back for several years, partly because of an inner unwillingness to fully accept and deal with its current status outside both the Italian and European elite. It’s a club that has fallen a long way, is crying out for stability, and one where there has been more pressure than patience - Coaches and players haunted by and sometimes judged on former glories.

    You can’t build lasting success overnight, and to go from being a decent side to world-beaters in one summer is a rare feat – there almost always has to be a process and players who begin that journey can play their part, without necessarily being there until the successful conclusion. Suso, for example, is unlikely to ever be as good a player as say Roberto Donadoni, but right now he has a significant role to play in helping Milan towards a top-four finish.

    Would Suso then be good enough, as a first-pick, to help them go on and challenge for the Scudetto, or the Champions League? I’m not so sure. But given the chance, this is a squad that can and will naturally evolve – it is how this great club, one with such vast potential, can negotiate the steep climb back to the top.

    Overseeing all that will be Montella, who handled himself very well last season – remaining professional and dignified during the sizeable challenges of a protracted takeover, and delivering both a trophy and a return to European competition in his first season. He undoubtedly has a platform for growth, but will be mindful of the pressure and expectation that this financial outlay will bring.

    The troubles of city rivals Inter came after a summer of optimism, where they were only outspent by Juventus, yet ended up experiencing a campaign of off-field upheaval and a seventh-place finish. Morale within the Nerazzurri squad seemed a big problem and that is something, particularly in the midst of an overhaul of the playing staff, which Montella will be keen to protect and promote at Milan. Throw in the potential for an extra 15+ games if things go well in the Europa League, and it’s clear that while the Rossoneri’s new era is off to a promising start.

    There are many challenges ahead to overcome before Milan are truly back where they feel they belong.

    ----

    The article, especially that last sentence captures exactly what I feel. I'm on the fence as to whether the new management are in it to win it, for the long haul, or just doing what is part of
    the Berlusconi conditions in the interim. We'll find out. I think with the changes above, the team could compete in the Europa and have a deep enough bench to rotate between there and Serie A without too much of a compromise in quality, but it's going to take a few months for the team to start to gel with all the changes. Finishing higher in Serie A has to take precedent over the Europa though.

    Donnarumma has decided to sign, but negotiations are not over yet. Mini (not a typo) Raiola wants clauses introduced that will release him at a €100m and less if they don't qualify for CL.

    The Merdi tried to sabotage Conti's transfer to Milan, but he told them to f'off. :)

    We signed Andre Silva apparently.

    Meeting PSG Monday for Grzegorz Krychowiak.

    Gianluigi Donnarumma has confirmed that “my wish is to stay at Milan” as “I’m looking for a house in the city.”

    Fire your agent please!

    I remember him from the U21 a few years back. Not bad from memory. His agent claims he's the next Ronaldo. :rolleyes:

    andre silva is a future elite. 38 mil is cheap in this market for a player like him. Lucky porto has ffp problems.

    I know it's YT but he looks quite smooth in link up play.

    I think we are going after Costa now.. especially after those positive comments he made about Milan

    CR has stated that the NT is in good hands with Andre Silva carrying the goal scoring torch after CR retires. That's pretty high ********ing praise from a guy who rarely praises players that are his peers let alone younger ones.

    So if nothing else CR at least sees the kid having the kind of drive and fire to be great, I'd say as long as your management can keep the kid on growth track you guys got quite the deal imo.
