Fiorentina have told want-away striker Luca Toni that his dream of joining Inter this summer will not turn into reality.
The World Cup winner has informed the Viola that he wants to sign for the interested Nerazzurri, but the Tuscan giants have reminded him that he’s contracted to them until 2009. “I think that all of our best technical resources need to be maintained,†stated Fiorentina sporting director Pantaleo Corvino. “Sometimes you have to go against the wishes of an individual. Toni wants to go and take into account the offers he’s received, especially the one from Inter. “However, we have been very clear – we want to keep Luca Toni with us in Florence next season.†Toni is a wanted man after he netted an amazing 31 goals in Serie A last term as he guided the Artemio Franchi outfit to fourth in the table. However, Corvino did suggest that Toni could move on if the club received what they considered as a big enough offer for the almost 30-year-old. “Our priority is to keep Toni,†he added. “The only odd thing about this situation is that when someone wants to buy a great player then they have to make a very important offer. “But if clubs want to just try to disturb us and cause problems then that is not right. In these cases you have to declare war and we are now at war. “We’ll have to see how it will come to an end. He wants to go, but we must go forward with our own intentions.†Toni only joined the Viola last summer after he controversially left Sicilian giants Palermo for just £7m. It’s understood that Fiorentina want to now net somewhere in the region of £18m for the former Brescia player. Football Italia |

you probably wonder how's this related to Milan but if Inter fail to sign Toni then they'll try to lure Ibra away from Giuve ... (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
So this just makes it harder for us too!!! This post has been edited by dst: Jul 29 2006, 10:31 AM |

There are better players around in the market .. Plus I think Ibrahimovic has a higher release clause than Toni .. But Inter r barganing with Viola. But how is this hard for us ? |

But how is this hard for us ? it's obvious pal, if we fail to sign Torres (very probable) then Ibrahimovic seems to be our second target and if Inter wanna sign him too then subsequently Giuve is going to ask for more and we'll have to outbid the merda thus the situation becomes harder ... ...

But is he really the second target, I mean he hasnt impressed in any of the tournoments last season; CL, Serie A, and the WC .. Doesn't that say something? |

He seems to be our second-placed target ... "reportedly"!!! I haven't talked to Silvio lately to tell you for sure, I've been busy ... However I have to say that he was very good in the CL last year as well as the year before that !!! In CL he's good, he will work to be great in Serie A too!!!! QUOTE (Portugal @ Jul 29 2006, 02:03 PM) He's going Inter... no doubt. Nah. I don't think so ... |

Why do players suddenly want to go to Inter it's not like he is going to win the CL there or even the scudetto, he does however have a big chance of winning the coppa Italia.

I think we both read from the same hymn books Rossoneri7 (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/devilsmiley.gif) Ibra must be the most overrated player I have ever had the misfortune to see. |

I completely agree, he is utterly hopeless. We have just lost a goal machine, why would we want to sign someone who struggles to outscore one of his own team's CBs? (Cannavaro).
Ibrahimovic should be forgotten about. I am sick of hearing about Torres too. He fails to record even a 1 goal in 2 games ratio which is the mark of a good striker. Agian, he is not prolific enough, and vastly over-rated I feel. I believe someone like Trezeguet should be investigated. He regualry gets around the 20 goal mark in Serie A, and a player fo his quality cannot surely be happy to stay at the old and withered lady now. I know he is not of the same style as Sheva, but we do play with Kaka so I see no reaosn why we cant have 2 out and out goalscorers, PLUS, I dont think Gila is purely a goalscorer. I think he i scertainly a far more creative player raather than a pure poacher, so we should feel free to look for goal scorers. Crespo is proven, and I think Tevez would be a good option, if it were possible, and, much like Torres, it is highly unlikely I think, but he would not be a mistake, wheras Torres would I feel. I dont know too much about them but Vennegoor of Hessleink and Huntelaar are worth investigating. |
