Juventus will receive 28 million Euros for the Swedish player.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic is on the verge of joining Milan as the Bianconeri and Rossoneri have reached an agreement for the transfer of the forward, for a fee of around 28 million Euros.

With the Old Lady condemned to Serie B football, Ibrahimovic did not hide the fact that he did not want to play in a lower division.

Inter were also after him, but following the signing of Hernan Crespo, the Nerazzurri let go.

The player dubbed as 'the new Van Basten', should have the transfer become official by the end of the day, or latest within the next upcoming days.

well.... i guess we just have to live with it.

I really hope this comes true and Gallas comes also with Diarra. Then ma mind will be settled.Can't wait for this to actually happen

At least it's not 40m...

Its a gamble with this player because he hasn't really proved himself as a high rated striker.

He was good on Ajax and for the first season with Juventus.

As a striker he is a playmaker and a finisher, similar to a Scheva-like role. We need this desperately.

Get Ibra or Torres.

dont worry everyone i trust zlatan

ok may be we can sign him( SlATAN ZEBRAHIMOVIC ) he seems to be the last option, we can improve his attitude make him more mature.

Watching the market right now i think it will be a good signing at this price - 28 mil
Maybe next year we can change him with Torres

I think this will be a bad move... I really hope he proves me wrong if he does arrive

Write that down. Next season you'll say "Gosh! I was so wrong..."

Exactly the way I feel

I do so hope I'll do...

L'Inter supera il Milan nella corsa a Ibra: oggi l'incontro

It seems that Inter are coming with a biger offer than MILAN
Cobolli Gogli said that if Ibra will go it will be to the team that will pay more money

What the hell are Inter trying to do??!!!!

Either we are going to let them have Ibra and we get one of there strikers, Hmm maybe Adriano?? Or I don't know, how many strikers would that leave inter with exactly?

Either way if we don't get Zlatan I wouldn't be that disappointed, I would much rather work on the Buffon Amelia Dida Tevez deal then worry about Zlatan

How many strikers does Inter want to sign anyway? Dumb Idiots!! - they know that they can't use them all..

& Ibra get your butt over here quick cos I'm losing my patience.

If Inter will sell any of their strikers those will be Recoba ,Cruz or Martins
There were some rumors about Adriano coming to MILAN few month ago but only in exchange for Sheva

I haven't really got anything against Ibra, I just don't see him as a replacement for Sheva - certainly not worth the money being mentioned anyway!

We could sign worse players, but I think we could also sign players who would score more goals/suit our system better.

Inter again? What they want? To have Adriano, Crespo, Toni and Ibrahimovic, Martins, Cruz, Recoba...? They're crazy...

There where rumors that Adriano could be exchanged with Inter but there was no mention of Sheva.

They would be stupid to exchange sheva with Adriano, they simply can't be compared, or the reason that Adriano hasn't turned out better is because he joined Inter, and they yet again ruined another carrier, maybe if we could get him he would be as good as he was when he played for Parma.

But they would definately never have exchanged him with Sheva.

I doubt Ibrahimovic will come Milan tbh. And i wouldnt suprised to see him go Inter.

Yes but Inter don't have room for other strikers, do you think that anyone from Ibra, Crespo and Adriano would like to spend 3/4 of the season sitting on the bench. That's what leads me to believe that if we let them get Ibra we would most likely get Adriano from them.

Maybe this thing with Ibra is just a smokescreean for Milan and Inter to work something out, concerning the striker situation.

They get Ibra, we get Adriano and Maybe one from Martins, Recoba or Cruz and we give them cash plus Amoroso (someone who wouldn't mind sitting on the bench) Because if Inter get Ibra, Adriano will most likely leave. And Also 2 from the above 3 I mention would also leave if Inter try to get Toni also.

Ibra is not the same type of striker as Adriano.

And... between those 2 I'll go for Ibra anyday.

But they are both regarded to be the seconda punta and not a box striker like Crespo is.

Anyway, if they get Ibra one of them would have to budge, because not anyone of them would want to spend time on the bench. I don't know what will happen but I definately know that if we are going to play the saome formation we have been playing we need another striker and right now I don't really care who it is, aslong as we don't reamin the way we are.

Gazzetta :
Della Valle: "Toni resta con noi"
L'incontro tra le parti e poi l'annuncio: "Luca ha capito e continuerà a fare il bene della Fiorentina". L'attaccante: "Sono convinto della decisione". Più fischi che applausi dai tifosi

Toni stays at Fiorentina
Now Inter will probably push even more for Ibra

I think this is a really really but really crappy sign in... i hope in God that Zatan, humm sorry zlatan never arrives to milanello...

Keep ur fingers crossed .. U aint the only one w/ that thought

Yeah. Torres is staying at Atletico. Tevez is Chelsea's domain... so LOT OF OPTIONS LEFT!

It would be a GREAT SEASON with Gila and Inzaghi (same type of foward) all the season! Well, Amoroso can do 10min 2 and 2 matches...

... oh wait. You guys are waiting for Ronaldinho? No this season.

Even though I'm not an Ibra fan Portugal is right, he is the best option for us. We might not like his aditude or the goal scoring figures that come from him but we need him wether we like it or not, and since he is our only realistic option I say sign him, get Oddo and a good CB and let's start preparing for the next season.

Maybe Juve just trying to rise his value

you never know ... he might grow into a matured player or he might turn into a flop ...

although people may not like him bcoz of his attitude I'd still welcome him here ... we got a lot of veterans in this squad and I'm sure he will soon become a professional player on and off the pitch ...

HUMMMM...

Exactly what are Inter trying to do? buy every striker in serie A???!!!!

Juventus reject Inter offer for Ibra.

with Adriano, Cruz, Martins, & Recoba .. On paper their attack looks very lethal.

But signing Crespo and now going for Zlatan .. I mean how on earth can this happen, even if one of the former 4 parts the team, still you have world class players that demand first team football...

I don't understand Moratti .. I mean he buys players just for the heck of it, eg. his son was a fan of Recoba, so he got him Recoba .. Pointless !!

And above all this, they don't win anything (unless u consider coppa Italia to be something) ..

I think Moratti has his players on crack or something, maybe Valium .. Such a depressing team, no honers at all !

Look at Maldini as an example, he said that if the Scudetto was handed to Milan bcz of Calciopoli, he would not accept it .. Now that's a man !

.. What did the merda do, they partied all night long, of course u cant blame lossers after all they are lossers

if ibra come to milan it,s mean milan will have 3 finisher striker` i thing in this time milan need stiker like torres or teves. but if he still come to milan i'll happy. about inter, they are desperate team but you know money can't buy love, and milan is team wit love, some sport magazine in my country says that milan is harmoniest team in serie A even europe

Not at all. Ibra is not Gila ,Pipo type of player

Since when Zlatan is a finisher?

tevez.. how can you say that he is chelsea's domain? i think we would have a chance of getting him. i wouldn't mind seeing him in red and black.

Corinthians is ruled by MSI. Chelsea's too. In fact, it was MSI that took Tevez from Boca to Corinthians.

MSI = Abramovich sports investiments company

I wouldn't mind Tevez in Milan, he's really good. But, I don't believe we have the chance.

I thought we can use the same amount money we received from selling shev to buy ibrahimovic because inter bid are rejected(not high enough)

You want to bid approx. 60mil € for a striker that hasn't even gotten to the 20 goal mark in both seasons that he has been playing in serie A?

That is too much you can't compare Sheva and Ibra. I think that 25mil € would be enough for Ibra, he isn't woth more, the only problem is that Juve are trying to push clubs away by putting such a high price tag on him

I mwould much rather see that money go to good use by getting 2 defenders and with the rest get Ibra or another forward like Tevez or Torres if Juve don't want to sell, and if the Shev money isn't enough we don't have to worry, we are Milan I'm sure we can afford it, considering there is no Shev, Rui or Stam wages to pay anymore

my friend, dreams are very bed if you see them awake .
I think one between Ibra and Gallas would be good to come, coz both of them its very difficut, and for Diarra there's no chance I CAN GUARANTEE YOU.

i heard they gonna play 4-3-3
i think that's why they are becoming greedy this days

4-3-3...aren't they all center forwards....they R gonna get skewered if they have a team that play flanks. Bloody Man U could knock Inter out...they need flank players...like Chelsea do...or even Netherlands in WC...for the 4-3-3 to be truly constructive.

Otherwise, it's a last minute tactic u use to get goals...put on three strikers.

Come on, Inter didn´t have the money to bid for Ibrahimovich, they already bought their reinforcements for this season and they didn´t went far enough in last CL to have a prize ($$$$).

Juve is just trying to rise the price of Ibra, they are desperate to get some money, because playing in serie B will be a huge loss of funds.

I really think that the most realistic reinforcement for the striker line in Milan is Ibra (we can´t afford Torres at this moment, maybe next season), remember that if we want to win this CL we also need a LB and a SOLID CB, we can´t throw away money.

Adriano isn't a CF but still you can't play the 4-3-3 without getting someone like Ibra, so I think that's why they are going for him if it's tru that they want to play the 4-3-3

For all I could care Inter are welcome to him. He installs no fiath in me whatsoever. he is neither a finishing goalscorer or a supplier becuase he is so selfish and wnats to hang onto the ball the whole match. He is unsuitable for Milan I feel.

Milan should go out of their way to get something worth having, ie, Tevez. He is young, with real tlaent, both the ability to beat players and score. No, he wont be cheap, but neither is Ibra by the sounds of things. Tevex would be money WELL spent, not wasted.

I agree! We should definitely go for him... but by the sounds of it... We won't...

Seriously, if this "surprise" Milan is talking about is Ibra... Then I'm going to laugh so hard... I mean they said that they will be replacing Shevchenko with an equal from the begining... So no surprise there... Plus Ibra is not even close to Sheva-equal...

Silvio, you better make me proud...

Lol u crack me up Portugal .. Sometimes I get u, but then again u just crack up

Listen bro, Ronaldinho is a fantasy .. no need for the kindergarden treatment .. It is very well understood that he wont leave Barca ..

Torres .. Well I do consider him a potential transfer to Milan .. As much as u think Zlatan is a good choice, there are others who might disagree w/ u.

I for one do .. if he would talk the way he did to the reporter (the interview that u posted) to any of his team mates at Milan, I think he will soon find himself transfer listed or meeting Seedorf's fists or something like that..

Then there is the ideology that you seem to forget what kind of a team u root for .. AC Milan one of the three richest clubs in the world; can outbid Chelsea on any transaction .. If Milan want Teves, then they get Teves .. In the end ..

Wether Zlatan arrives or another .. unfortunatly the club wont need u to scout on who should come, so u have ur opinion and others might have theirs.
