Torino-Milan: Negotiations underway for Mesbah

29

TORINO are interested in signing Djamel Mesbah and negotiations are already underway, it’s reported.

Milan have many left-backs, although none of them is a true starter – according to Mauro Tassotti – and it appears that one left-back is already on his way out and it’s Djamel Mesbah as Torino want him.

Mesbah joined Milan in January from Lecce and apart from a few good games he failed to impress when given a chance, so Milan – it appears – are now considering to let him go and Turin move looks feasible.

Milan: Boateng also wants a raise?
Didac left out of Spain’s Olympics squad

According to the online portal of La Gazzetta dello Sport and Sky reporter Gianluca Di Marzio, Torino President Urbano Cairo arrived to Milan’s headquarters at via Turati earlier on Tuesday to try and find an agreement with Milan for the 27-year-old Algeria national team player. A deal looks likely to be found.

Milannews.it claims that a deal will be found and the sides just need to decide whether Mesbah will join Torino on co-ownership like Milan want or on loan with option to buy him next season, like Torino want.

Milan are also expected to let go of Taye Taiwo who said before that he has no intention of going back to Milan after a loan spell. Should both leave, Luca Antonini and Didac Vila would be the only LB choices.

yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeha

Giorgio

Oh please, do let him leave. Sell him and Taiwo and buy one quality left back, that way we’ll have Him, Antonini and Didac for a starting role.

Signor Eskola

“buy one quality left back”

Why? We have already two QUALITY choices for left-back, Dídac and Urby.

Fossa Dei Leoni Jr

I do agree. Just give didac and de sciglio chances to play. Even we still got emanuelson which is quite excellent when he played as LB in ajax

Opex

Yep! Sell him and buy kolarov…

arya

emanuelson and de sciglio are also able to play at left back
but i hope we sell mesbah and taiwo and keep didac vila

ben

why do Milan want co-ownership? either way, didac and antonini are enough for left backs, specially as mentioned above that urby and de sciglio can play there too.. i’m really excited to see what didac vila’s all about though!

milanfan

they want co-ownership because torino don’t want to buy outright, and milan want some more money that they can use on other players/to balance the books

Rossoneri

Milan need to keep Mesbah and sell emanuelson. Emanuelson disappointed with his performances last year while Mesbah was solid when given chance to prove.

Urby, a LB, disappointed at Trequartista (surprise, surprise) but did well the few times he was played at his natural position and we should sell him? Not only sell him, but sell him and keep another LB who, aside from his debut looked lost when played at that position? That sir, is absurd.

Signor Eskola

WTF?! Urby was given a chance to play left-back only three times last season and he impressed on those occasions, two assists. And he was fielded as left-back midway through the game, so it was surely impressive.

This is the best transfer news of the summer! Amen! God is great!

elia ngalu

ha ha ha NICK i agree with you

nick

@elia ngalu..I didn’t think we would be able to get rid of Mesbah! But Milan have found a sucker in Torino! Maybe Galliani can let them sweeten the deal and gives us Ogbonna!

Milanista121

Great, and let go of Taiwo. Very good, but just sell him outright, if we can get 2-3 million for him (Mesbah) it will be a very good piece of business, oh what the hell, he can leave for 1-2.
We should be able to get at least 4-5 million for Taiwo now shouldn’t we, it would be great as well since he came on a free transfer. Keep this up and let go of the dead weight and make room for new faces.
Forza Milan!

What ever option Torino want just try to agree with them.

Pa ibra

the same applies on Taiwo Co ownership, sale outright, loan with option to buy… anything would do. But i doubt any of the midfielders would leave as most of them has just been signed or too good to be sold. i’m still curious how the squad will be cut to 25 players. hope Didac stays. Allegri though doesnt seem to like him fool

milango

sell taiwo , buy bazaretti

MilanCRO

I really don’t know how much potencial transfer would cost Torino,but I know that we buy Mesbah for 300,000 €. Only! So,if we get 1 million,I’ll take this!

kelvin

Emanuelson is not a fullback….he is a natural winger and we should stop using as a lb option…we now should focus on getting a lb after mesbah and taiwo depart..

danrondo

Never should have been bought in the first place, just one of the bad deals of Galliani.

dredd

urby sold hahaha, u r inzzaaane. Hes our best lb, allegri doesnt use him. sell taiwo mesbah antoni bonera yepes buy a cb dede. We hav urby didac

Mich prince tommy

Don’t sell urby but sell taiwo and mesbah instead urby is one of the future.

check out this kid we jus signed ;)

lloyd

selling urby, robinho & taiwo would make sence; 1. Urby as a cam failed, his defending will be a problem at lb & milan don’t play wings. 2. Robinho won’t get any better & with pato fit again, he can only disturb el sha’s development. Plus if we can strike a deal with santos for ganso in exchange. 3. Taiwo is useless period. Another problem is traore & constant, i’v never seen them play but i think aquillani was a better option. Muntari & flamini r allegri type players & will play next season. For those who praise uncle fester… Read more »

Milanest

Oh please!! Abbiati is gr8. Sahin doesn’t want to leave, the deal involving Ganso can’t happen unless we get Robinho’s replacement first. As for Urby and Taiwo for Witsel, who told you that Benfica want them.

Opinion Varies

You couldn’t have said it any better-Milanest

truongdang

Let him gone!… Sell Taiwo, please choise Didac Villa for DL!

Milan

Yes. Sell him & Taiwo then get a qualified regista (Sahin or Strootman) then we’re good to go :)
