Summer mercato 2012

[Gabriel426]

Milan signing and paying 10mil for a player is like going undefeated and winning everything in a season for Milan fans. As one of world's biggest and most successful club, signing someone worth 10mil is a dream come true. I really can't name another top club who would gone through all the troubles and make all the necessarily sacrifices in order to sign someone who is worth 10mil. beat that Real, Barca, ManU, Bayern, Cheslea, City and Juve.

Honestly, it is really pathetic that we are all overjoyed on the thought that Milan is willing to spend 10mil on a player to improve the starting 11. Thanks Berlu.

Strootman deal should be done by week's end for around 10M Euros.

In Brazil they are saying Mourinho told Real MAdrid management to bid for Mario Fernanades(RB/CB of Gremio).

In the same article they said for 11 M, they almost finalized the purchase last month. Now, it´s being said Milan and Bayern Munich entered the race, Just spreading the news...

SKY Italia Reports Acerbi is Finalizing the move to AC Milan today. The deal is for 1 year as a Loan with a Wage of 0.7M with an Option to Buy for a Fixed Price from Genoa. (What else is new?)
AC Milan News ‏@Milanello
About the Acerbi-deal: Genoa will first buy him out from Chievo and then they will send him to Milan on a loan deal with a buy-out clause.

Acerbi: "I hope that I get to join Milan. It would be a dream come true."
Acerbi: "I’m only waiting for when my agent tells me that I can sign the contract with Milan."
Acerbi: "I’m happy because Milan is a strong team with many champions. In these last months I’ve proved that I’m good enough for Serie A."
Acerbi: "Joining Milan is great for me and I honestly never would have expected it to happen myself."

Giornata frenetica oggi in sede per Adriano Galliani. Come aveva ampiamente anticipato il nostro direttore, Zlatan Ibrahimovic sarebbe stato richiesto dal Manchester City e così è avvenuto durante la visita di Roberto Mancini in Via Turati durata circa trenta minuti.
Subito dopo Galliani avrebbe parlato di Francesco Acerbi con l'agente del difensore del Chievo. Il giocatore verrà riscattato dal Genoa che ne detiene la comproprietà e poi girato al Milan in prestito con diritto di riscatto.


So it's true, Roberto Mancini asked for Ibrahimovic, but Galliani basically told him to take a piss.

Then from another site:
"Secondo alcune indiscrezioni, oggi Mancini era nella sede del Milan per trattare uno scambio fra il 2 club: Milan e Man City. Lo scambio vedrebbe Ibrahimovic approdare a Manchester mentre Balotelli e Kolarov arriverebbero a Milanello"

"According to some rumors, today was the headquarters of the Left-handed Milan to treat an exchange between the 2 clubs: Milan and Man City. Exchanging see Ibrahimovic landing in Manchester while Balotelli and Kolarov arrive at Milanello"

Acerbi is max a sub for CB, and if Ogbonna is also coming, does that mean Bonera is leaving? Also, will they sell Mexes and Bonera in order to get a true starting CB with Silva?

I really don't believe Galli said no to Mancini about Ibra. I think he said not right now, maybe in Late August.

Elmago, you probably already know, but just in case you didn't Genoa gained full ownership of Acerbi recently (I think he was co-owned with Chievo) and that's why we're dealing with them on the transfer.

I just saw a pic of Chelsea players getting the CL trophy and guess who was in the background....Galliani, I just hope he was not there to court Drogba and Lampard but was there for Luiz.

Yes I know but I'd love to know why?? Why are we always taking deals through Genoa. No one has been able to figure it out....
