There are reports from Italy that Arsenal midfielder Mathieu Flamini has told teammates that he will be joining Milan next season.
The talented Frenchman has rebuffed the Gunners’ new contract offers and looks set to leave the Emirates Stadium when his current deal expires at the end of the season. Juventus were thought to be leading the pack of sides chasing his signature, but, according to the Corriere dello Sport, he has his heart set on the Rossoneri. “I have decided that I will be going to Milan,†Flamini allegedly said in the dressing room. Manager Arsene Wenger seems to have resigned himself to Flamini’s departure, leaving him free to discuss personal terms with the Diavolo once the current campaign is over. Milan are reportedly ready to offer a four-year deal worth around £3m per season to lure the free agent. Channel4 |

If we sell Flamini for 3m...WTF is going on here?
Last year he was fighting for his place in the team, and after ONE good season he decides to leave? |

QUOTE (Locke Lamora @ May 1 2008, 03:07 PM) If we sell Flamini for 3m...WTF is going on here?  With all the recent interactions (games, news stories, speculations, transfers) between Milan and Arsenal, things should be pretty interesting for you, eh, Locke? It's hard to be in love with two top teams at the same time these days. (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) And we've been hearing everything and anything from Adebayor to Flamini being linked to Milan. My heart pretty much sank when we drew with you guys in the Knockout Stages. Arsenal is a club I very much respect, and knew whatever outcome of those games be, things will rattle up a bit. We'd have been slightly better with any other team, but oh well, that's done is done. Having said that, I'd loved to have seen Arsenal lift the Champions Trophy this year. I'm in the neutrals zone when it comes to Flamini. At least someone is coming. (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |

You are not going to sell... he'll be a free agent in the summer... if Flamini leaves Arsenal, it'll be a grand double blow for the Gooners; not only will they lost a very reliable player (in my opinion their best this season) but they also going to lose him for free... |

Okay, until any official staments from either Milan, Arsenal or Flamini himself comes out, I'll keep away from all these rumours...

Everyone cares about the money. don't make it sound like it's something uncommon! he's young and it wouldn't be a disaster if he missed one season of playing in the CL so the fact that he's [supposedly] chosen Milan over Juve doesn't necessarily mean he only thinks about money. |

I don't know much about Flamini, but we need new some more defenders and he is not bad.
Moreover he's for free and quite young. So why not buying him? But as Locke has said, I won't believe this as long as it's not official. But I heard that he wanted to leave arsenal before. (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) |

Arsenal are a very young team who are doing well in their league. Milan are a very old team who aren't doing very well in their league. Not to mention what they did to us in the head-to-head games. |

Milan are not supposed to be an old team forever. it's clear he has a better chance of winning something important with Milan. This post has been edited by zdrossoneri: May 1 2008, 02:23 PM |

Wow, I never thought someone can compare Arsenal to Milan, let alone think that they match us in term of prestige (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) You think Milan is going to have the same squad forever? A lot of players are going to leave in the next two years, Galliani said several times that he wants some young players for the future, and clearly stated our objective for next year : Il Campionato! Players usually sign for a club for the future not the past, so they don't care if you were not doing well in the championship for, let's say the last 3 years, they come to acheave something and they choose the best club that can give them this chance. Flamini had the choice between Milan and the zebras, why do you think he choose us? (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) I think you over estimate Arsenal and the English clubs, actually they don't even come close to the likes of Milan and Madrid, there's only diverpool and man u who come close to this elite, and they're a step down with Bayern, Ajax and Co.
