Ambro agent welcomes Napoli talk[/b]

The agent of Milan midfielder Massimo Ambrosini has refused to rule out a transfer to Napoli.

Ambrosini is still waiting on a contract offer to extend his current deal, which expires in 2010.

Milan are expected to make some sweeping changes to their squad this summer and Ambrosini could be one of the men making way as recent reports suggest that Napoli are ready to pounce.

“Anything is possible for Massimo,” representative Moreno Roggi said on Radio Kiss Kiss.

“All doors are open, but I do think it is unlikely that he will be leaving Milan because he has another year on his contract.

“It's nice to hear talk of Napoli - the more talk the better - but that isn't a possibility right now.

“However, Napoli are a great club and Ambrosini is a great player - so why not?”

Channel 4

IMO if they were to offer £5m they can have him.

why? He's 32 next month... You want him here until 40?


Exactly. We have too many older players and need to trim the squad down. Get some quality younger players in with something to prove.

Disagree with you guys who want to ditch Ambro. Course, I'm one of those crazy people who thinks he's better than Flamini.

Okay, let's arrange a planned exodus for all above 29 year old players. Let's buy 13 year old talents!

At least we'd have some hunger back in the side, something we drastically seem to be missing with all the 'over 29 yo's' we have.

Let's be fair here, being old doesn't necessarily mean one is not motivated or hungry anymore. (remember Nedved when Juve played in the CL?)

Having too many winners and champions is the real reason for the lack of motivation IMO.

Not many young players have 'won it all' though. We have too many players who have won it all and have lost their hunger, to refresh the squad we need to be ruthless and not sentimental.

In far too many matches over the last two years Ambrosini has been the only player to give a damn. He cannot be replaced on and off the pitch at the moment, and we are really gonna need him next year when Maldini has gone

I perfectly understand what you mean. Ambro is not the problem though, as long as Seedorf stays at this clubs and starts week in week out (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

I mean sure extend his contract and all, but in reality he isn't going to be playing much with Flamini around. Thats why I said is there really a point to keeping him until he's 40?

haloo, ambro is our captain next year, or at least his 1st substitute, sure we have to extend his contract, he's in milan since 1995 so after maldini is gone, he'll be in first place for "how long in milan time..." or so i think (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) )

I personally prefer Flamini (when he's on form) to Ambro but come on, we need depth in the squad. if we let Ambro go we will have to look for a replacement and knowing the management, we won't sign players of Sissoko or Essien's caliber; we will sign another Emerson. do you want that?

If we have any sense then Ricky will be our captain next season. Ambro, at best, can warm the bench.

Personally speaking I think he's a liability. I agree that he has scored some important goals and he has been at Milan since '95, but for the majority of the time he's been injured and hasn't really first choice and he is 32. I would probably offer him a 1 year extension and use him as a bench warmer.

Fishdoll and I agree with whoarethepatriots on this one.

I'll go personally a little further and repeat that I much prefer Ambro to Flamini.
