Cerci to Genoa is almost a done deal. /Mediaset

Loan or permanent buy?

i think he is on loan to mialn?

Is he even our player?

I though we had him on loan for 2 seasons from Atletico... Don't understand why he's even our issue at this point, should have just sent him packing last summer

Anyway. I really do hope we find a solution for some of the players we have on our roster so we can free up space for better players

Reading a lot about the Ranocchia deal. Why does Milan even need that Inter player? I don't see the point of signing him, even with Mexes departing.

On other news, Mr. Bee and Berlu having a important meeting tonight.

MN/Sky

Looks like the Luiz Adriano deal may be off (link)

Good. He was solid, but we can use the money from his sale elsewhere.

He means it's not going to happen. They didn't agree on the terms of contract.

Yep, I misread "off" as "on". Crap...

Has anything other than signing Boateng again on a free happened this winter?

I don't think we've even made 1 single significant move. All this when we should be working on the midfield and looking to get a proper long term partner for Romagnoli, especially if Mexes is leaving

We still appear to be concluding that Mr Bee deal, which occurred in summer (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Apparently, we are after Taarabt. Shoot me now ...

AFAIAC, we are seeing a replay of the saga we have seen for a number of transfer windows now:

[Previous transfer window]

We get a number of (mostly useless) players, attracting them with ridiculously high salaries. Still unclear on the rationale behind these selections, except they seem to tick most of the following boxes:
- parametro zero
- "special deal" from a FoG (friend of Galliani), in particular Raiola or Preziosi
- used to be a (reasonably) good player a few years ago but has been sidelined (possibly for a while)
- yet another striker (to make Berlu happy)
(If there is a "grand strategy" or even something vaguely resembling "a project" someone still needs to explain it to me, 'cause I don't get it.)

[Current transfer window]

Galliani: "can't possibly buy any player unless we first sell a few"

<Time passes ... other clubs seem reluctant to take our players (wonder why), and even when they do the deal often falls through because either (1) the player is not willing to compromise on the ridiculously high salary he is getting at Milan (Luiz Adriano is the latest example) or (2) Berlu blocks the transfer for reasons that are beyond me ... we are linked to a number of names but nothing happens ... more time passes ... we are now days away from the close of the market.>

Galliani: "time for the Condor to strike again!", and off we go to get the usual last minute panic-buys, mostly fitting the criteria listed above. Occasionally we do get lucky, and all the Galliani-lovers get to sing his praises.

Sounds familiar?

There are of course side shows like:

[A few transfer windows ago] We steal Honda from Zenith
[Last transfer window] We try to steal Witsel from Zenith
[This transfer window] Hmm ... wonder why Zenith is not willing to deal with us on Witsel

Aaargh!!!

This article basically says that our inability to sell players is self-inflicted, and derives from (1) our selection of mediocre players, and (2) the ridiculously high salaries we pay them. Pretty much the same points I have been making for some time.

So I see Leicester wants Niang and Nocerino should be off for the MLS. Something might happen after all...
