From the club website. Longish interview, but here are the relevant snippets along with quick translations thereof.

[Galliani: Gilardino has confirmed his desire to remain in milan, accepting the competition for starting spots. Milan has always wanted Gila to remain. The issue is closed and forgotten. Now we're thinking about next season.

Gilardino: I'm very happy about this meeting, it was very important. I'd like to remain here as long as possible. I'm happy about what Pippo said (in an interview, Pippo has said that he'd like to see Gila remain a Milan striker for the next ten years). In reality, I didn't have any doubts. The press exaggerated my words; the desire to remain at Milan was always there. I've given this interview to tell everyone that I was never interested in joining another club, especially not Inter.]

GALLIANI: ‘Gilardino ha confermato la sua volontà di rimanere al Milan, accettando la sana competizione che c’è nella nostra squadra e in tutte le maggiori squadre d’Europa. Il Milan ha sempre avuto il desiderio che Gila restasse qui, a condizione che lui fosse felice di rimanere. Questo mi è stato confermato da Alberto e quindi il problema è chiuso, dimenticato. Ora pensiamo alla prossima stagione’.

GILARDINO: ‘Sono molto contento di questo incontro, ci siamo chiariti, è stato molto importante. Sono felice, e consapevole che questa è una squadra importante, dove vorrei rimanere il più a lungo possibile. Lo ero prima e lo sono ancora di più ora. Ho sentito Pippo, mi ha detto cose molto belle. Ma ho sentito anche altri compagni che mi chiedevano di pensarci bene. In realtà io non avevo dubbi: i giornali hanno un po’ stravolto le mie parole, ma la volontà di rimanere al Milan c’è sempre stata. Ho fatto quell’intervista proprio per dire a tutti che non mi sono mai offerto a nessuna altra squadra, e tanto meno all’Inter'.

QUOTE
Gila going nowhere, claim Milan 

Friday 8 June, 2007 ::: channel4.com

Adriano Galliani insists Alberto Gilardino will stay with Milan for some time – just days after publicly putting him on the transfer market for £17m.

The striker last week revealed that he was considering his options at the San Siro after admitting that he was sick of being treated as a flop and wanted the outfit to show more faith in his abilities.

The European giants didn’t appreciate Gila’s interview, but Vice-President Galliani insists everything has been ironed out with the youngster.

“Just as Filippo Inzaghi, I believe Gila will be a Milan striker for the next 10 years,”
said the official on Friday.

“I am sure that all the problems will be resolved. We met with the player, his father and his agent a few days ago and we were all very serene.

“Gila must understand that we have great faith in him, but no Milan player has ever demanded a spot in the starting line-up.

“He will be one of the four strikers in the squad next season and will have to compete with his teammates.”

The former Parma man is a reported target for Juventus, as a possible David Trezeguet replacement, but Galliani is confident that Gilardino has learned his lesson.

“He is young, strong and will be granted space like all of his teammates,” added the former Lega chief. “We would have never reached the Athens Final had we not had so many players here.

“It isn’t always a dishonour to start from the bench, but I am sure Alberto will understand all this. It is normal that he wants to play – he wouldn’t be a Milan player otherwise.” 


So. He's staying. Nice.

Why?? Do you have any clues that Milan are behind his sister's kidnapping? Or did Milan force him into mishitting from point-blank range!?? (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

If Gila complains about not being given enough time, imagine how bad Oliveira was in the practice sessions... I bet he couldn't even run straight!

He should be blaming himself, not Milan.

There's nothing in this page, I think I saw that in some other thread... but yeah, he is a true DMF... plus with greater technique than your standard one.
