Ha, didn't know you went to the final. Too bad for you Jose was involved (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

Can you just let me enjoy this possibility for a bit? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dramaqueensmil.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dramaqueensmil.gif)

I'm just saying Bremer is the smarter option. And Paolo is just a smart guy...

Plus the crying Inter fans will do will be so worth it even if Bremer turns into a flop (not possible). First the Scudetto and now the CB they've been rumoured to have agreed terms with for months now


State owned EPL clubs at that...

We'll see what happens. The Elliot link to Lille is great for us. This is why I'm happy they're keeping a minority share in the club. They wield a lot of influence. Especially if you're in their debt.



Btw. Botman seemingly does not want to go to Newcastle, so whatever they offer to Lille now, unless they convince him, it won't really matter.



Final comment. Bring on the Super League and f@ck UEFA.

I would call the whole Mbappe renewal ordeal as THE WORST thing that's ever happened to football. You're offering to a player you already own, about to become a free agent, 130mil just to renew, and 30mil annual net salary? WTF???

A club like PSG that made 224mil of losses last season. Yet they manage to pull these moves thanks to the fraudulent way the Arabs manage the club. And UEFA lets it happen as if something normal. Absolutely disgusting.

This is why I supported the SL from day 1.

Only fans of the EPL were against it, because that's a Super League in and of itself. Add to it state backed clubs and it's even worse

PSG are in their own stratosphere of disgusting.

I think within the next 5 years the SL will happen and UEFA will have to bow down to it.

Looks like the new owner of Milan has given Maldini a war chest. Elliott stated that they chose Redbird for their business acumen, in that Milan will continue to be managed in a sustainable manner. I.e. no over the top buys and to live within Milan?s salary cap.

The warchest would most likely be coming from newly injected capital and sponsorship deals. The visibility Redbird have in marketing would bring in better sponsorship deals.

I am excited for what is to come now. As at first i was skeptical when Maldini said those comments.

Milan are linked with a lot of interesting names, but I hope for a stellar signing. An Ibrahimovic type of player with more fuel in the tank.

Two days in a row I keep reading rumours about Nkunku. Honestly, it kinda sucks cos we all know it's impossible to get him so they're just teasing us.

I think the best possible player we could get this summer in attack is De Ketelaere. With Botman, Renato, De Ketelaere and Origi I would be more than happy. Delighted.

Lang also being mentioned a lot. If Rebic is really going to be sold, I could see them bringing in a back-up for Leao.

Those 4 will make it an excellent window either way

A LB backup is also critical this window imo. We need to be able to give Theo a rest now and then as well as cover for him when he's unaviailble. Ballo-Toure clearly isn't the solution there

I think 100m will be enough to have a very good transfer market. We don't need to spend huge sums. The ground work has already been done by Maldini and Massara for players like Botman, Sanches and Origi. They'll probaly cost around 50m all together.

De Ketelaere will be a bit high, probably around 35m. We might be going for Lang as well which will probably be around 20m.

Factoring in a couple of sales like Caldara, Alexis/Rebic (hopefully not Rebic, but I understand why they might want to cash in), Ballo-Toure, Krunic (don't know if we'll sell him but with Adli and Pobega as well as Sanches coming in, I don't know if Krunic will have space next season. Plus some salaries going off the books and Zlatan's reduced wages. We'll have some extra cash to bring in a back-up for Theo and complete some important renewals (Leao, Tomori, Tonali, Bennacer, Kalulu, should all be renewed in the next few months. Without breaking the bank. That's a budget in line with what Elliot has been giving Paolo and Massara to work with.

Given the excellent work done by management for us to have such a strong foundation of young players, we don't need to have big summer spending sprees, just upgrades every summer for certain areas.


I think next summer is when we'll go all out for a striker imo. Especially if we cover all the weak points this summer, with the expected names.

Sanches is a done deal.

Botman is a little complicated as EPL teams Newcastle, Spurs and United had placed bids higher than that of Milan, while the player himself is pushing for Milan only.

Origi, apparently will sign beginning of July when his contract is expired.

Am i missing something else?

Gazzetta today write that we'll have 100m to spend this summer, which is precisely what I've been saying we'll be spending (spent 75m last summer, can't see why we can't spend 100m in this one).

On the other hand, apparently we met with Raspadori's agent yesterday. No, just, no.

100m = Botman (30m) + Renato (20m) + Origi (0m) + De Ketelaere (30-35m) + Florenzi's redemption (4.5m). That's it. Whatever remains we can spend on some low-key signing or another loan.

Florzenzi will be coming for lower. Just read we agreed a 2.5/3m deal for him with Roma

Raspadori is okay for me. Prefer him over the other 2 Sassuolo guys. Still not a 30m player imo so no worries there about getting him for that money.

Botman I think is going to turn into a saga. Which is funny because I assumed Renato would be the harder deal but he seems practically done. While Botman is going to be an issue from Lille's side with Newcastle and PSG offering more than us. Our trump card is obviously the fact that the player seems set on Milan.

I think we'll go for Lang as well from Brugge. Just a hunch. Only thing remaining if we get all these done is a backup for Theo. Soo 100m + anything we get from player sales should be more than enough to cover all these moves

I think those are the first 3 major moves we'll make. Which would be an excellent start imo

Still need 3 more players to complete the squad and to make some sales as well.

Botman issue getting complicated according to Romano.

Honestly. Just swoop in and take Bremer from under Inter while they're wasting time on Dybala. Not that complicated

Mediaset - In the evening, AC Milan transfer market men are expected to have talks with Botman's agent to try to find the right solution to bring him to the Rossoneri. Bremer remains in the background, but Inter are still ahead.

In Belgium they're saying Noa Lang to Milan is a 100% done deal. Maldini is only waiting for RedBird's OK.
