Anyone know anything about this guy? Fillipo, you're closest geographically, I think.


[Today, Milan deposited with the Lega Calcio the contract of Mitja Novinic, a 16 year old Slovenian striker from NK Nafta Lendava. In Slovenia he's considered one of the most promising players of his generation.]

UFFICIALE: Milan, preso un baby sloveno

Il Milan ha depositato quest'oggi negli uffici milanesi della Lega Calcio il contratto di Mitja Novinic (16), giovanissimo attaccante sloveno proveniente dal NK Nafta Lendava, formazione che milita nella massima serie del campionato della Repubblica ex jugoslava. Il giocatore è considerato in patria tra i più promettenti della generazione

Srečko was one of them, then came Zahovič, well... (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

You are right Fillipo, but as I said our players in generaly aren't so talented and our talents are more rare than in you country (but I didn't say we had no great players in the past) (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) . As you said Srečko Katanec and recently Zlatko Zahovič. Before that it was Branko Oblak (Bayern), Popivoda, AmerÅ¡ek, Elsner...

I just hope that sometime in the future we produce a player that will deserve to wear Ac Milan shirt and play an important role in the team (like Boban did, Å imič also).

Maybe Handanovič (23 years), very talented and young goalkepper who is playing in Italy for the past three years. He' s owned by Udinese where he was 2nd kepper in his first season, then he was loaned to Treviso and also to Lazio, but this year he was one of the best players of Rimini in Serie B (amazing game against Juve - highest vote of all players in Gazzetta dello sport). He was beeing linked with Torino before Sereni came and with Parma, but now that De Santis is gone, he might even stay with Udinese. Maybe he will be a good solution for Milan in a couple of years. (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/king.gif) Will see what happens. I would sure be happy.
By the way another of our young players was signed by Fiorentina (Tim Matavž - 18 years, stiker).
