Don't forget to quote sources when posting rumours! That's usually a good indication of how much weight that rumour actually holds (IMG:style_emoticons/default/innocent.gif)

It is just common courtesy Blue. In any case, if you don't post a link, somebody will ask you for the source and you'll have to show it anyway, it just saves time doing it when you actually post the rumour/article.

Milan To Announce Signing Of Arsenal’s Cesc Fabregas On Monday – Report
Sections of the Italian media are speculating that Milan president Silvio Berlusconi will announce a big-money signing for the club on Monday night before the Trofeo Berlusconi, and according to UnoNotizie.it this player will be Arsenal’s Cesc Fabregas.

The €30-35 million required to complete this capture will be recovered in part by the sale of Andrea Pirlo to Chelsea.

Milan have had a truly disastrous pre-season, winning just one game. They had already suffered a string of defeats to Club America, Chelsea, Inter, Bayern Munich, Boca Juniors and Benfica, and last night lost two more in the Trofeo TIM to Inter again and Juventus.

This Monday night, Milan will host the annual Trofeo Luigi Berlusconi against Juventus, and there are expected to be huge demonstrations against Berlusconi after a disastrous transfer summer where the club have made just one notable signing in Real Madrid’s Klaas Jan Huntelaar, despite selling star man Kaka to the Blancos for €67m.

Partly in a bid to quell the protests, as well as to strengthen a Milan team in desperate need of new players, the Italian media are speculating that Berlusconi will use the special occasion at San Siro on Monday night to announce a big-money signing that will excite supporters.

UnoNotizie.it are claiming that this player will be Cesc Fabregas, who they say wants to leave Arsenal after becoming disillusioned with the direction the club is going following the high-profile summer sales of Emmanuel Adebayor and Kolo Toure which has been countered only by the arrival of Belgian international centre back Thomas Vermaelen from Ajax.

Milan will shell out €30-35m for Fabregas, and will recover part of this sum by selling Pirlo to Chelsea, despite Berlusconi’s announcement last week that the Italian World Cup winner would stay at San Siro for the rest of his career.

While this may all seem like fantasy football, and Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger declared only yesterday that there was no chance of Fabregas leaving the club, Milan supporters will be waiting eagerly for Monday night to see if Berlusconi announces a major coup prior to the clash with Juventus.

i really don't think this is true but i am praying it is......the money is unrealistic though (IMG:style_emoticons/default/money1.gif)

It's a nice, fanciful article but... yeah. Fantasy football. Is it possible someone will arrive before Monday? Sure, even if it IS a holiday weekend in Italy. But Fabregas? Fishdoll doubts.

I'm not positive about a signing before Monday if only because it's a holiday weekend in Italy. But before the start of Serie A? Yeah, I think someone will come.

After the "Cesc to return to Barca" rumours last week, he sas he's commited to Arsenal for the coming season, so he won't be joining Milan, or anybody, this summer. Next summer though..

I'm quite sure Galliani and co. are not taking a holiday.
