I read somewhere that it was debunked. By both Fassone and Lotito. Football-Italia's reporting has just been trash with respect to Milan. You'd almost think there was an agenda.

Well, originally it was Mediaset's story. They're the first ones to bring up the Bonucci thing. Made me nervous there for a minute.

No grazie to Ciro.

Football Italia just pick up rumours, translate them and turns a one liner into a paragraph. Mediaset and Gazzetta have both been absolutely awful with Milan related news this summer. So it's no shock that they got this wrong as well

Mirabelli confirmed today that Auba, Kalinic and Costa are the ones we're looking at.

Kalinic in there is a such an obvious odd man out. He'd be the easiest and cheapest to get, so why would we be procrastinating on him if we really wanted him that much. My general thoughts on him have been that we're keeping him on ice if the other better targets fall through. And Mirabelli sort of confirmed this by lumping him in with 2 players who are completely out of his league

Actually..... in the interview, it was the JOURNALIST to bring up Kalinic. Mirabelli responded with 'or Aubameyang or Diego Costa'. That part just isn't being translated clearly. Take that as you will.

Curious new rumor this morning - a Bacca-Falcao swap.

Falcao is finished, would take Kalinic over him

Also, do you guys think that 1 striker is enough? Especially is Montella plans to go for a 3-5-2/3-4-1-2 at some point this season

Atm we have Niang, Cutrone, Silva and Bacca as out and out strikers. That's rather pitiful. Sure we plan on replacing Bacca with another player. But that leaves us with just 1 reliable goal scorer in the team.

We don't know how Silva will do. Cutrone might be promising but I don't think he'll get a lot of minutes. And Niang is Niang, hopefully the management wake up before we end up stuck with hi for another season.

I'm thinking we need to sell Niang and Bacca ASAP and bring in 2 strikers. Maybe Costa/Auba + Kalinic?

Dunno. I also think that we need at least two strikers, while none of the current ones qualifies as a good solution. Call me spoiled by the deals we've sealed earlier this summer - but this transfer stall at Milan is lightly getting on my nerves. We have to speed things up again, get rid of players like Sosa, Paletta, Niang, etc and close at least one of the two striker players.

The management said they'll be keeping quiet till Aug 15th and make a move after that. They're 'considering options'.

Football Italia have no interest in truth - just traffic. Their site is about hits and impressions on their ads.

It's easier said than done to sell such players. You also forgot to mention Bacca who's the toughest one to get rid of and the one who would catch us the most cash

But I agree with you about taking too long. The longer they wait the harder it gets to sign important players as their clubs will want to hold on to them.

Auba looking less and less likely now with Dembele looking like he's going to force his way out to Barca

Costa wants Atletico. The choices are really dwindling. I don't see how we could get either of them at this point. The threat of Kalinic is looming on us I'm afraid

In general, it is real hard to sell on favorable terms if the potential buyer know you have to sell

Shame. That used to be what was said about tribalfootball. Those guys have remarkably improved now.

Never heard of them. Decided to check out the site, and it looks like we are linked to Modric again.

As have Goal who started out the same as tribalfootball. The former have certainly improved. Not seen TF in a while though.
