AC Milan are preparing a bid for Fiorentina midfielder Riccardo Montolivo.

The Italy U21 international has been identified by Milan directors Adriano Galliani and Ariedo Braida as the player to act as understudy to Andrea Pirlo.

Montolivo has sparkled for Pierluigi Casiraghi's Italy U21 team, but has struggled to establish himself in Florence this season.

I think Milan must bring in some fresh blood. I prefer European players because they are more serious than Latinos. Furthermore, the Dutch Era of Milan was the biggest success. And a Dutch coach - van Basten or Rijkaard.
Montolivo, Barusso, Bendtner, Rossi and one or two young defenders are among my favourites.
Yours?

Who're Barusso and Bendtner?

Who're Barusso and Bendtner?

Barusso Apparently we're getting him for £2m. Haven't seen much of him myself.

Niklas Bendtner Spent last season on loan at Birmingham, looked pretty good, then again who wouldn't look good playing for them? (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

I saw him in the under 21 euro last summer. The kid has a big future ahead of him IMO
