AC Milan and CFC Genoa are about to find an agreement for the transfer of striker Marco Borriello to the World Champions; the ligurian club should obtain 6 million Euros plus Luca Antonini and Davide Di Gennaro; Borriello should sign a 5 year deal and earn 3 million Euros per season.

@han .. Who said Borriello would replace Gila ?!  It's waaaay too early to speculate on such issues, for one, we don't know which world class striker will come in, in the first place. And for that to happen, Gila would have to sign with Fiorentina first.

Galliani said that if Gila leaves TWO strikers will come in. That means if Boriello is brought in then he could be 1 of the 2 that were promised.

And imo, if we take Boriello back it would be taking a step back in terms of quality. We all saw how Gila did at Parma, now compare that to Borriello at Genoa, the only difference is that we already know that he will ammount to nothing at Milan sincee he has already been given a chance at Milan on more then one occasion.

And also spending money on a player when you know that he's never done anything good for Milan and also Milan themselves had pretty much given to Genoa for practically nothing just to get rid of him would be a waste of money that could be used in other areas or even to smooth out the deal with Barca for Zambro and R10

Well yes, Gila-Parma could be used as an example and I fear for such a situation with Borriello too .. But UEFA regulations imply that we need to bring in players from the primavera and Borriello is the best of them atm. Hence, I don't see this as a bad deal, rather the best considering the circumstances.

About the money issue .. I'd rather leave it to the experts at Via Turati .. They have been cutting deals for years now, they know exactly what they are doing (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

And on the strikers, I believe one will come .. And that one would be Shevchenko, if not then another world class striker. Plus Ronaldinho. And that would be it, of course if I wanted to unlock my wet dreams, I would say Drogba, Etoo, Bin Zema, Henry, etc .. But I am not about to go there.


p.s. It is too early han, Galliani said two strikers, yes. And they could very well be Borriello plus another world class striker. Then again, Borriello hasn't arrived yet, not has Gilardino left, so it is all up in the air. Let's just keep it on ice till the window opens (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)
