Milan have made the signing a top-class forward their priority and the Gazzetta dello Sport has today linked the club with bids for Ronaldinho, Didier Drogba and Karim Benzema.

The Rossoneri have a real striker shortage at the moment, with only three senior forwards on their first-team books.

Star-striker Ronaldo has yet to play this season due to injury and his rehabilitation has been constantly held up by complications. Filippo Inzaghi recently turned 34 and has failed to score since September 18, while Alberto Gilardino, despite his recent upturn in fortunes, is not everyone’s cup of tea.

Ronaldinho, who has been linked for some time with Milan, is the obvious first name to come out of the Gazzetta hat. The Brazilian superstar has not been in the best of form at Barcelona this season and is believed to be unhappy.

The second player to be linked is Chelsea’s Didier Drogba. The Ivorian recently told France Football magazine that “nothing could stop me leaving” the club, and a move to the Rossoneri may be on the cards, given his on-off relationship with Milan-based model Elisabetta Canalis.

The final striker to be paired with a move to San Siro is Lyon prodigy Karim Benzema. The 19-year-old is widely regarded as one of the most promising young forwards in Europe, although Arsenal are believed to be favourites to sign the player next summer.



i don't care if we don't get drogba or ronaldinho. We would do VERY well to sign benzema. I have seen him play on numerous occasions for france, and he is a very intimidating attacker. With him, 19, and pato 18, and ronnie and gila to help their learning curve, milan's attacking problems are solved.

Nope...the media has made it really difficult to get young players cheaply nowadays.

You'll have to pay through the nose, for anyone who looks remotely a bright footballer.
