QUOTE Galliani: "I knew about Chelsea from the very beginning, but Carlo refused in the end!"
Adriani Galliani talked this Friday about the Carlo-Chelsea link, conquering that the London based club had followed Carlo (AC Milan coach), as they tried to offer him more than one offer, where he declined all offers. For if there is one coach that Chelsea need to win the Champions League, Carlo Ancelotti is highly ranked in Europe from that perspective.
Galliani said after he arrived the the Lega Calcio headquarters: "Yes, it is true, Chelsea tried to lure Ancelotti, I was aware of it. But Ancelotti in the end said 'No' so now Chelsea will have to declare a new coach. And no, I wont say if he is Italian .. I have spoked with Peter Kenyon and told him that under no circumstances will Milan let Ancelotti go. And after that, they did reproach the coach again and for this the relationship between both clubs remains on good terms."
Galliani continued: "Maybe Ancelotti and Spaletti have something more in them than other coaches around; because they know how to make their teams play great football. And maybe it is because of this that Chelsea wants them!"

QUOTE Spaletti: "If ever I left Roma to Ancelotti, I would be pleased to coach Milan!"
When Carlo Ancelotti was asked today about Chelsea, he exclaimed that Spaletti might be heading there instead. He also added, that if he ever was to leave Milan, it would be only for his old love, the capital city.
Roma's current coach, Luciano Spaletti, commented over the comments: "Ancelotti said that I should go to coach in London ? I have read those reports, and I am sure he was joking. Carletto is a great wolf, with the feelings that he has (probably has meaning lost in translation, meant to say, he is strongly willed by his passion and desire for success I guess). He is planning for his own future, and with that he is finding a future for me too. I can't take his place in Milan, because I haven't played in the past as a Rossoneri. But if Milan one day wanted me as a coach, I would accept in a hearts beat."

Chievo and Bologna are already through to Serie A next season.
They'll be joined by either Lecce or Albinoleffe. These two teams will play in the promotion playoff finals -- it's a 2-legged final, with one game this Wednesday and the return leg Sunday.
Also of note: the Sampdoria primavera won the primavera scudetto this year, beating the merda primavera (who fielded Balotelli in the game).

I wish I could watch these play-off games, they usually are excellent. Much better than most hyped up top league games!

QUOTE Empoli president: "We hope to reach a deal with Milan over Pozzi, before June 25th."
The big performances that Milan's loaned out player, Nicola Pozzi has produced over the past two seasons, has turn several heads in Italy.
And this is why president Corsi is trying to seal a deal with Milan, before he looses him, he says: "We hope to reach a deal with Milan before the 2th of June, keeping in mind that he is remaining with us until 2010. I repeat, I hope we can reach a deal with Milan within the next two week!"
Mr. Corsi continued, "We will not try to wage war against any team that is trying to sign the player, even if it is Torino. We want the player, but also want to remain in good terms with president Ceiro, and for this reason I have planned to meet with him."
Torino have made it clear that they want the 22 year old in their ranks for next season.

QUOTE Antonini: 'Milan kept me for seven years, unlike the others'
Milan's new player, Luca Antonini has spent 7 years of his career playing his trade from one club to the next, until finally returning to Milan after Milan bought 50% of his contract from Empoli.
Antonini told Tuttosport: "Usually when the players leave the primavera, after two or three years they are sold to another club. But Milan kept a hold of me for the last seven years, and now they have brought me back home .."
He added on his previous team: "The biggest risk that Cani had taken with me, was when he let me play in the defense: I felt as if I just clicked into the left back role, and I hope to learn a lot from my idol in such a role, Zambrotta. Whom I feel that I share certain characteristics with, I hope to find space in the Coppa Italia and the UEFA cup, and if I can also I would like to participate in the league too."

So we brought back Antonini to be a left-back? Anyway... it's good if he can play in 2 different places, I hope he's decent...
