Toni Set For Milan Move?

AC Milan are set to begin negotiations with Bayern Munich in the hope of signing their star striker Luca Toni, according to La Repubblica. Rossoneri have identified a top-class centre forward as their number one priority in this summer’s transfer market. 

Toni only signed for Bayern Munich last summer from Fiorentina, however he has been a huge hit in Germany, and is currently the joint top-scorer of the Bundesliga with 14 goals. 

Milan are ready to bid €10m for the giant hitman, as they aim to begin their rebuilding process following a hugely disappointing season. 

The chances of Toni moving to Milan are said to be promising as the Milan vice president is known to have a good relationship with Bayern supremo Karl-Heinz Rummenigge.

A possible obstacle however could be Toni’s current annual salary of almost €6m a season. The striker, who turns 31 in a couple of months, may also wait and see if Milan qualify for next season’s Champions League before consenting to the move.

Toni has never played in Europe’s premier club competition, and Milan are struggling to qualify as they are currently fifth in Serie A, four points behind fourth-placed Fiorentina.

If this were to ever come true I would be like a kid on Christmas morning. Please Santa. I've been a good boy all year and what I would really like for July is Luca Toni to play at Milan. SANTA! SANTA YOU HAD BETTER BE LISTENING!
