Milan admit to Eto’o desire
Tuesday 5 June, 2007

Milan chief Adriano Galliani has declared that the Rossoneri will make an offer for Barcelona's Samuel Eto’o.

The latter has been heavily associated with the European champions and the Vice-President has today admitted that the Cameroon ace is a target.

“Eto’o remains our primary objective, but we will not disturb Barcelona until the end of the Liga season [on June 17],” Galliani noted this afternoon.

“However, next season’s squad will basically be the same as the group of players who have just ended this campaign.

“A few players might come in, one in midfield and one in attack, but we are in no hurry as we are fine as we are.”

The proposed arrival of Eto’o would increase the competition for a striking shirt next season and Galliani conceded that the club were ready to sell Alberto Gilardino.

The latter is unhappy with the lack of faith being shown in him by the European champions and a divorce is seemingly on the cards.

“I told him that the club would want him to stay,” added the official.

“However, seeing as we can’t guarantee him a starting shirt and we didn’t appreciate his recent interview, I have given him permission to leave – so long as someone pays us £17m.”

Gilardino is understood to be keen on a move to Juventus which has led to speculation that the Old Lady may offer David Trezeguet in return.

“Trezeguet is a player who we really like, but we can’t exchange a player who was born in 1982 with one who is five years older.”

Galliani also rubbished rumours of an Andriy Shevchenko swoop. “His return is more impossible than unlikely,” he added.

“Thierry Henry? We were close to him after Sheva left but he demonstrated himself to be a great man. He wanted to stay loyal to the club who made him famous.”

"Eto'o remains our primary objective!??" When exactly did he even become our primary objective? And what happened to Ronaldinho!?? (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

"We are fine as we are"?? Thank Paolo this is Galliani talking otherwise my brains would be on the wall by now... (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

I hope Gila WANTS TO stay! If not then it's best for both sides that he leaves... and we replace him. I think what Galliani means is that Trezeguet is not old enough for Milan!

Oops on the last part! Sound like a fling...

This feels like last year... I hope they prove me wrong!

So it's clear now. The big signing in attack will either be Eto'o or Thierry Henry.

Both are c@nts in their own ways imo. But I would prefer Eto'o simply because I think he is better at this point in time in the player's carreer and is younger. Think of the future Galliani.

And Gila SHOULD be kept. No use in selling him after all we went through to get him. Pippo might be our hero but he is NOT our future, Gila is.

Why sell an Italy NT striker when 24 years old to a club that is our competitior and felt it better to sell Zambrotta to Barca then us last summer for less money.

Simply stupid on Galliani's part.

Gila should be convinced of staying at all costs.

I don't think it is logical to call Galliani stupid (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

He has a PhD and has been with Milan for the past twenty (so) years, more than most of this forum's members actualy life span (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

He knows best. I agree with u that Gila shouldnt be sold, but since Gila actually stated to the press that he wants to move and this is also taking into consideration that Milan have given him two seasons to prove himself !! Why are u still backing him up ?? Milan just won the CL without him (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Milan doesn't need him and if now at 25 he isnt consistent nor is he living up to expectation, what do u expect of him in a couple of years time ?? Whatever ur prediction might be, Milan cant run the risk of devoting presious time on the pitch for Gilardino to come through (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

Gila should be convinced to stay ?! Why ?? Has he proved anything to us over the course of 2 years ?!

We have Ronaldo now .. Bring in someone who can complement him and let the team flurrish. Enough with this Gilardino cr@p!

He's a world-class foward. No doubt. Specially looking at his age: 26 and the best still to come.

The thing is... will he shut is mouth when he's in Milan? Every time he opens it... it's b/s coming. (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

I'd prefer Ronaldinho anyway.

This could also be exactly true for Ibra. And I would say yes to both of them.

Ibra didn't get the microphone and sang to the entire San Siro "Milan, you sons of bit... GET IN!" when celebrating the title. (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

You can't say the same about Etoo when celebrating the Barcelona's La Liga. (2 years ago)

Eto'o talks a lot of crap.

Ibra is like an uncontrollable moron.

Both amazing players.

It's nothing to do with that.

Henry's just very selfish, he stayed there because it's his team, he's the star. Not because they made him famous. In Milan he'd be 'just another player'. (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

Players can't win can they, if they don't stay they are unloyal and if they do stay in a lesser team they are selfish (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) Give them a break!

Anyhow I'd rather have Henry out of the two.

If he can bring Eto'o I'll put his picture in my desktop instead of Milan with the cup foto (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) He's the best striker in the world, and with Ronaldo playing with him, we'll be unstoppable.

Real rejected him. It was stupid to sang that but understandable. Besides , here it'll be different, I think.
