Milan goalkeeper Nelson Dida has not yet found an agreement with the club over the extension of his contract, Vice-President Adriano Galliani.

The Brazilian’s contract expires in June 2007 and the club had recently set a deadline, telling the player he needed to make a quick decision on his future as the Rossoneri need to know his intentions to plan any moves on the market.

“I met with Nelson, we spoke with affection and he lowered his demands a little,” said Galliani.

“However, there is still a big difference between his requests and our offer. We have a strict salary policy that cannot be changed. Dida is a top level player, but he cannot earn more than the other champions on our squad.

“We all hope we can reach an agreement soon,” concluded the former Lega Calcio chief

The Brazilian has allegedly asked for a £3.2m per season deal, whereas the Rossoneri are not willing to offer any more than £2.7m.

The Selecao No 1 is currently out of action and will not be back before the New Year after injuring his knee in the Champions League tie with AEK Athens in November.

Should Dida decide to leave the San Siro, Milan have a number of goalkeepers on their wish list, including Livorno’s Marco Amelia, Stefano Sorrentino of AEK Athens and even Juventus’ World Cup winner Gianluigi Buffon

Dida has a choice .. At the moment, he is our #1, but if he doesn't sign that contract soon; we have no choice but to replace him, while he might still have it in him to propel anyteam, i.e. Man U to honers .. Milan would have to risk another Gila situation w/ a new keeper .. Which is a risk, considering, we play for two honers/ season .. And need a gk who can handle the pressure.

What a dilemma

p.s. PLZZZZZZZZZZZZZ sign

why should he get more than Kaka... ?!?!?

because Kaka does not care in the first place... even Kalac gets more than him (well no obviously). His father is a rich man!!

?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
LOL

Whose father do you mean? Kalacs? Kaka's?
Surely Kalac doesn't get more than Kaka... that would be a f*cking joke...

Anyway, I don't doubt that Dida is worldclass, but I think we should get Amelia!!!

I mean Kaka's daddy... Ricky is one of the few Brazilians (actually I can't think of another one right now - except of course his brother...) that did not "grew up in the brazilian slums... bla bla..."

He would have a life full of money anyway... But he was also gifted that talent of his... some people just get it all!!

ah... his father is an engineer... so he had a good life quality, but not the elite...
Blahblah...

anyway, money = power.

civil engineer... there's quite a difference!


...

Yep, and isn't his wife the daughter of some famous designer or something like? Or the daughter of someone who runs the franchise af a designer label in Brazil?

nope she's a teacher....


you mean caroline's mum, rosalynda whatever, she's representative of Dior Brasil

That's what I meant...Cause I knew I read it somewhere.

And isn't his wife still a student???

something like that. I think she already finished it this year or so...
