Milan President Silvio Berlusconi is ready to splash out a monumental £70m on new signings for the club.
The Corriere dello Sport claims that the former Italian Prime Minister has finally accepted that the Rossoneri need to invest in some new blood if they are to continue to compete at the top level. Berlusconi will make £25m available in January, and the remaining £45m will be spent in the summer. Top of the shopping list according to the Italian newspaper are Azzurri stars Fabio Cannavaro and Gianluca Zambrotta, Palermo striker Amauri, Valencia midfielder David Albelda and Lyon’s Kim Kallstrom. Milan have made the worst start to a domestic season since Berlusconi took over the club 21 years and currently sit in 13th place in the table. A major factor in the European Champions’ poor form has been their transfer campaign in the summer just past. Only the 31-year-old Emerson and the 34-year-old Ibrahim Ba, two players way past their best, were brought to the club. Teenage wonderkid Alexandre Pato was also signed from Internacional, although he is ineligible to play until January. ----------- goal ---------- |

Milan have spend that type of money and even more in the 90's and Milan is a privileged club that can always spend that amount and more. Recently Milan has taken a more economic stance on spending ... Which I agree with as the club has to remain healthy in it's books. |

Never say never .. and .. never say it's impossible (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) 70M, 70Cents, or 700M ... This is AC Milan, there are no constraints economically. There is just a method of discipline in terms of allocating such sums. If you just tuned into Serie A recently, try to get the 92-93 season of Milan. In that transfer season if I remember correctly (Jack has the tape, he should be even more accurate on that figure) Milan spent close to 90M Pounds Sterling. The season when Lentini and JPP (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) came in. Plus in total Serie A clubs spent over 300M Pounds Sterling. And at that time, you should double the figures to get todays price(s) (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) But the 90's are gone and we are in 2000 as you say, still we remain with the same board who have the ability to spend such sums and even more, considering Milan's ranking in Europe today. @Fillipo ... It is only natural that Serie A teams suffer today economically, Parma-Fiorentina-etc, as today there is an even wider audience and most prefer the EPL and La Liga to Serie A. Mostely because of the free flowing game that is not available in Serie A. Then you have the marketing aspect of things, as Jack said in India (well in Asia as a whole) and let us not forget South America, Africa, Australia, Middle East, and the United States ... These countries pay in Billions of dollars worth of TV rights and other products that help to boost certain leagues. When you look at the EPL, it is sponsored by the Barkley's bank versus the fact that Serie A isn't sponsored in such a way. And to get into details, I am not that of an expert, but these are things that are visible from my stand point and are hard dry facts. |

Of course they can! I didn't mean they don't have the money. I say they're not going to do that, their policy in the market has changed now, for a reason I don't know of, the Milan of nineties wouldn't let Henry and Toni slip through their fingers. (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) unless they're planning to splash out on one player (=R10) which is stupidity. |

For the 1,061,799 time R10's financial deal will come out of Silvio's pocket. AC Milan as a club wont pay a dime ! No they wouldn't let Toni or Henry slip, but they paid a fortune for Lentini, who turned out to be the biggest flip in the history of AC Milan (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) Along with other miscalculations! So what is ur point exactly? The management aren't good enough ?! This post has been edited by Rossoneri7: Nov 3 2007, 12:50 PM |

(IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) I don't remember saying that, I just said our management will not spend 70 million pound in one transfer window and I still insist on that unless otherwise is proved! And could you please cite a reliable source for saying R10's price won't be paid by AC Milan and it'll come right from Silvio's pocket, because that's something I can't digest! |

Site a source ?! Silvio Berlusconi said it !! He is keeping *insert figure* aside for R10's transfer. This ain't something made up, this is something that has been recycled so many times, you can go through the Ronaldinho thread and find maybe 10 different sources that state that.
