And another one from the Balkans: Milan has apparently signed Lazar Petkovic, a teenaged goalkeeper who's already 1.91 meters tall. He's apparently highly rated and Milan beat other (mostly English) clubs to him.

It's good they're trying to invest in the primavera.

It's only because we can't afford to invest in the first team!

Problem is we haven't seen any sign that they're willing to give them a chance to advance into the first team. Why are we wasting money on the Primavera if we're not willing to see it through?

Also we need to make smart buys, not buy every youngster we come across and usually they end up being not good enough, because it might be a million here and another there for a couple of players but it's still money being wasted if we're not planning to give these players a chance.

Because this new approach started only last year, by signing Zigoni, Beretta and Hottor. You need at least 2-3 years before the main squad can receive benefits from it.

Filippo Galli is still the favourite for the post, primarily because of his time in charge of Milan's youth sector. So the invertment in youth would be due his impending promotion to the 1st team managers position so if anyone can judge if their good enogh he will.

Milan Closing In On Getafe Star Pedro Leon - Report


Italian giants Milan are on the verge of signing Getafe midfielder Pedro Leon, according to several reports from Italy. The Rossoneri have supposedly already agreed terms with the Spanish side.

Milan have been in disappointing form this season and are therefore looking to add to their ranks this summer. Pedro Leon should be the club's first signing of the upcoming transfer window.

The 23-year-old joined Getafe from Real Valladolid last summer and has immediately developed into one of the star players at the Primera Division side.

Pedro Leon was previously linked with clubs such as Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester City, Valencia and Atletico Madrid, but he appears to be on his way to Serie A instead.

Getafe have reportedly agreed to part company with the highly rated midfielder for an €8 million transfer fee. Negotiations between Pedro Leon and Milan are still ongoing, but an agreement could be reached in the coming days.

I think perhaps EPL prices are a bit over inflated. Hangeland isn't worth 15 million. 7-8 million is, I think, more realistic. And Serie B defenders don't go for anywhere near that amount. As for the prices of highly-rated players from the Brasilerao, well, of course they're going to be inflated because the Brazilian clubs think they can get a lot for the players due to the perception that some people have that Brazilian players are automatically better than everyone else.


well obviously they are inflated. I don't disagree with that. I was just saying what the reality is right now. If everton can sell lescott for 20+, there is no way hangeland will sell for lower. He is rated a better defender than Lescott.

I think Hangelaand is rated higher now, but not at the time when Lescott was signed. It's hard to judge prices and value of players though. Dunne was signed for £5m and is arguably the best CB in the league based on this seasons form, so is everybody else worth less than that or what? It's tough to get a true reflection of someones value.

Let them keep him. Often you buy middle-level youth, since you can pawn them off to middle-level clubs.
