AC Milan Go Duck Hunting
The Rossoneri are homing in on an Inter player for next season, although the Inter in question isn’t Milan arch-rival Internazionale but Internacional de Porto Alegre. 17 year-old revelation Alexandre Pato (Duck) is the target.
Umberto Gandini, AC Milan’s sporting director, confirmed that the Italian giant is tracking the young Brazilian. â€We’re accompanying the development of the player. He scored a nice gaol during the week in the Club World Cup and we’ll be watching him against Barcelona too.â€
“After that then we’ll make the appropriate move according to what our spotters inform us, but there has been no approach made to Internacional as of yet and there isn’t a planned date either. We follow a lot of playersâ€, he explained to Brazilian paper ’O Estado de São Paulo’.
Milan are still feeling somewhat orphaned by the exit of Shevchenko, now struggling to recover superstar status at Mourinho’s dog-eat-dog Chelsea, and Ricardo Oliveira has failed to live up to either Carlo Ancelotti or the Rossoneri faithful’s expectations. The only problem is that with a price tag of $20 million this Duck may be a little too rich for Gandini’s blood.
