Much-maligned Milan striker Alberto Gilardino is desperate to sign for Fiorentina this summer, according to La Nazione.

Gilardino’s days at Milan have been numbered for quite sometime now following a third hugely disappointing season with the club.

The 25-year-old has scored just seven goals in Serie A from 30 appearances this campaign, and has barely played in recent weeks.

With Milan looking highly likely to sign both Ronaldinho and Andriy Shevchenko in the summer, and with there being a possibility of a third forward arriving too, Gilardino is almost certain to be sold.

The favourites for his signature at present are Fiorentina, whose coach is Gilardino’s former mentor at Parma, Cesare Prandelli.

The pair have a mutual respect for one another, and Gila is said to be especially desperate to be reunited with Prandelli.

A possible stumbling block could be the striker’s wages, and he has been told that he will have to take a huge pay-cut in order for the transfer to go through.

This may be a sacrifice that Gilardino will be forced to make if he wants to get his career back on track.

The forward has seen his reputation fall steeply over the past couple of years, and it is highly unlikely that he will be travelling to Euro 2008 with the Azzurri.

and I want his move too! (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Lol, you forgot to include "Ciao" in that list! (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Frey is not over rated, i thought he was until I actually started watching Viola's matches. Frey is an amazing player. Without him Viola would've not been anywhere close where they are now.

Yup, Frey is very, very good. And if we can't get anyone better, then he's be our best bet. I'd still love to see a Brazilian keeper if we can find a strong one. Not to mention I'd be one happy monkey if we can prey "Julio Cesar" from Inter in the future. For me he's been one of the best Serie A players this season, if not the best.
