A.C. MILAN OFFICIAL NOTE
8/7/2009
After successfully undergoing the medical visits, Klaas Jan Huntelaar is officially a Milan player. The Dutch striker has signed a contract that will keep him at the club until 30 June 2013. All of the Milan family give Huntelaar a warm welcome. Klaas is Dutch, as are some of the sweetest memories of the entire Milan history of the last 23 years.


Fishdoll counts that as official and welcomes Huntelaar!

Anyone know when he'll be presented?

The Spaniards are taking a huge financial hit on the player they signed from Ajax for £17m in January as they will reportedly have to hand over another £6m to the Dutch club as part of a sell-on agreement.




Welcome to Milan

How main problem in the recent games as been lack of a striker to put the ball in the net. It did not show last season because Kaka was around, so I guess this is a good buy.
Also I hope Pato takes the challenge and grow up or be forced to play in the midfield or on the bench

Welcome, Klaas!

Actually Pato put more balls in the back of the net last season than Kaka did.

Klass signing

Hopefully he will do well, I have a good feeling about this transfer.

wtf? he was arguable our best player last year

welcome HUNTELAAR!!

Oh dear.

Learning from the best.

You see Hab? weird world, isn't it?

can't wait to scream his name when he scores

Ac Milan really should get some HQ Photos for there site.
The quality of photos in their multimedia section is about as sad as Kalac!

By the way - No offence to what you posted though han.

Thanks for it.

Does anyone know if he'll be taking 19? I hope he takes a new number and not 11. His own number like 24 or something.

None taken. When compared to other clubs, our official site couldn't be more cr@p then it already is, an ametour site designer could do that in 15 minutes flat with some photoshop

haha! so true!

Finally, a Dutch player I will not pull my hear out in despair for when I see him in Milan's colors! Welcome!! Score some goals for us!!!

Meh...the Dutch...they can play some great football though, especially Huntelaar. Welkom!

i know its a couple of days early but will Klass be playing against England in Holland in this weeks friendly

yeah it says on acmilan.com that he wis called up

i was waiting for your imput "give me my bicycle back"

Fishdoll still doesn't quite know what to think about this transfer. Good purchase? Yes. But Dutch strikers conjure up lots and lots of emotions and, well, Fishdoll just isn't sure whether Huntelaar will be able to even come close to the last Dutch striker who played for Milan.

Wasn't Kluivert the last Dutch striker who played for us?

It doesn't matter if he doesn't reach MvB's levels. we've bought him for peanuts. even if he flopped it wouldn't upset me.

Come close to the most complete forward ever? Even if he reaches a level where he can just spot MvB in the distance he will be amazing.

haha.. those days.. so beautiful..

dam you stole my line lol

Kluivert doesn't count.

He's not Dutch or he's not a player?

No he just does not count, he never learned to.

My God, dst said something that was actually not un-funny.

double negative

I'm quite sure that's what he was going for.

Yep. My comment wouldn't have made sense otherwise. Well it would still make sense, but it wouldn't mean what I wanted it to.

just bugging you for no particular reason

It's okay, I'll let you off. You're surrounded by French people, I understand that you need to let off steam one way or another.

Klaas-Jan Huntelaar: Milan Is Perfect For Me

Klaas-Jan Huntelaar signed for Milan from Real Madrid last week and is already enjoying his new surroundings.

"Before accepting a transfer to Milan, I spoke at length with management and Leonardo," he explained to the Corriere dello Sport on Tuesday.

"There are no guarantees on the number of games I will play, but I will play plenty. Several clubs were interested in me, but I am sure I've made the right choice."

The Dutch striker was only at Real Madrid for half a season, before president Florentino Perez's re-instatement saw a massive spending spree that brought in stars such as Kaka, Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema, pushing out Huntelaar after just 20 appearances.

"It's true, I didn't expect things to end like that, but in Italy it will be fine. I have carefully chosen my new team and Milan will be perfect," the 25-year-old concluded.

According to the latest reports, it's possible the former Ajax star could make his debut for the Rossoneri on August 14 against Pescara.

Milan Striker Klaas-Jan Huntelaar Hits Out At Real Madrid


Klaas-Jan Huntelaar has been left angry at the way he was treated by Real Madrid’s hierarchy, although he maintains he has kept the club’s fans in his heart.

The Dutchman signed a four-year contract with Milan last week after dropping down the pecking order at Real Madrid following the arrival of Karim Benzema from Olympique Lyonnais.

The Netherlands international had been tipped to link-up with VfB Stuttgart, with whom Real had reportedly agreed a transfer, but the striker rejected the move to the Bundesliga side.

Huntelaar, who cost the Rossoneri €15 million, has now criticised Real Madrid's chiefs, fuming to AS, "Those in power at Real did not behave in the way that club deserves.

"They surprisingly told me my new team would be Stuttgart.

"Those decisions irritated me, but thanks to my agent I was able to stay calm."

When asked about his short spell at the Santiago Bernabeu, Huntelaar said, "During the first months I was fine, but things started getting worse right after.

"They did not take me into consideration and they made me feel useless. These things hurt, but I have a strong mind and I resisted.

"From Real, I keep the affection of their supporters."

Gosh. So we're playing a city in an earthquake zone?

(Presumably they mean the cup that's being played against the gobbi et al in the city of Pescara. goal.com should employ proofreaders).

I think they should employee better staff in general . Nice find. Personally I just skim through the articles look at the quotes. Don't really care for the extras.

Do your job properly or not at all!!!

yeah i was gunna say lol Pescara lol

can anyone tell me what number that huntelaar wear for this new season?...
please anyone....

welcome to milanfan it is still not confirmed what he will be wearing

So Huntelaar praises new club Milan and criticises old club Madrid. Surprise, surprise.

? elaborate...

Nothing more to say really. I thought players would have grown out of the habit of doing this by now, it's just a bit annoying.
