Milan have renegotiated new terms with both Brescia and Sandro, and now very little is missing for the official.
Sandro did not live up to the hype that accompanied his arrival and showed that despite his great talent, there is still a lot of room for growth for the 21-year-old Italian holding midfielder.
Milan had an option to buy out Tonali after his one-year loan at the club for €15 million plus €10 million bonuses. The Rossoneri decided to not use this option – and instead make a new deal with Brescia at reduced figures.
Talks have been ongoing between Paolo Maldini & Frederic Massara and Brescia President Massimo Cellino for a few weeks and an agreement seems to have been found. According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, in addition to the €10m Milan paid for the loan of the player last year, the Rossoneri will also give Brescia €7m plus €5m of bonuses plus Giacomo Olzer, bringing the total deal to €25m.
As reported by Milannews.it, there have also been talks between Milan and Tonali’s agent Beppe Bozzo in regards to the deal. The Diavolo have apparently asked Sandro to reduce his salary and the player accepted the new offer of Milan in order to stay with the club, of whom he’s a lifelong fan.
Milannews.it reports that very little is now missing before Tonali’s official stay at Milan. The new season starts on July 8th and Stefano Pioli will hope to see Sandro at Milanello among his men.
Lapadula, Junior Messias, Ounas, Benali and Convert Castillejo to Left Back, so need of buying Deputy to Theo.
Wow, you even make me look!
*look smart 🙂
Great characater and true heart and true milanista, hope he will become a legend with us and stay for many years to come. Encouraging to have a player like him in the squad compared to the greedy spineless egos of hakan and donnarumma that we experienced in action lately. I have a feelling that a player like belotti would do the same sacrifices for us so hopefully we will be able to snatch up a good deal and get him in the later stages of the transfer window when torino president cairo fully realizes that he wont renew.
We need to conclude this deal and Brahim’s so we can focus on other areas.i am not too keen on Berardi considering his price tag. A player of chiesa’s make up is what I wish for the right flank, a combination of speed and unpredictability. Then you get a versatile Ilicic as options for both right and middle.
Oh boy he is a true milanista and it needs certain character to go to such lengths, accept terms and Sacrifice financially to play for your boyhood club…either he plays good or bad this boy have won fans heart…are you watching this mr hakan and Donnarumma….
Tonali also refused to go to any other team, which forced Brescia to give Milan dicount, twice. He sure is a true milanista. But we should appreciate that, and not just take advantage of the kids heart.
True we should not only appreciate but this should make Elliot and others think what passion and desire means to support your club. We barely see any such kids in recent times who at start of your career go to such length. Hats off to tonali he not only said but showed it through his actions what Milan means to him.
Well said mr Rossi because the next thing you will see pioli will put him on the bench to plan loan players that don’t have future in Milan thereby forcing the young players to think they have made a reckless mistake
“will put him on the bench to plan loan players that don’t have future in Milan thereby forcing the young players to think they have made a reckless mistake”
Pasalic – Locatelli!
Kessie is shopping for other possibilities in the market. If he does not sign the contract, then he needs to be sold.
This lad got the right mindset. He’ll have a steep learning curve if provided with consistent playing opportunities. In today’s overvaluated price tags, it takes quite some to reduce the salary.
I hope Milan can now move quick in the mercato moving forward. I don’t know how many of you that are familiar with Tsygankov – versatile and young midfielder and opportunity creator. Would Iove to see him in the right flank.
This guy’s one year younger than Donnarumma in age but light years ahead in class.
I appreciate Tonali. In my opinion he is very talented BUT Milan really have some shitty owners and eventually all of our good players will be heading for the exit door.
The news I am waiting for the MOST is that Elliott Fund are selling Milan to a competent owner. I will be very happy when that comes true.
I am also waiting patiently for that
Yeah like they managed the sale of Lille to someone who’s now selling the core of the team and let both talented coah and sporting director leave. They even cover true identity of the owners that bought Lille. Elliott sure are reliable.
I don’t trust these guys and the truth is that they don’t care about football. That word is alien language to American owners.
They are ruining football. Just look at the shitty state of clubs they own like Arsenal, Man United, Milan and Roma.
I agree with you it seems they are more money orientated like short term vision stabilising and cashing it on the assets. Without investment you can’t win and without winning you can’t generate money and we are lacking in investment. You need a passion to run football clubs they are more like trophy assets these days. Berlu’s Milan was one such example he invested when every one else was relying on sports money. We lost the plot when his company was fined with 500 million euros and infulx of oil money in sports club. We couldn’t adopt and hence our… Read more »
Don’t forget lile they put yes-man but the real owners are Elliott lile won the league but all their star mans are on the market because of these suckin money we the milan fans we mustn’t support Elliott without us they are nothing
just like showroom car….
Tonali have Milan in his heart. Respect!
Joakim Maehle just turn 24, is interesting as a versatility player : FB(R/L), M(R/L). He has high rating on European Football so far and has played 36 in the leagues this season
As a dane i would absolutely love if milan bought him atleast if we didnt already have calabria in the club and besides of that i have no doubt he would exceed at minimum 30-40 mil by now. Both Mæhle and damsgaard are players i would have hoped us to have kept an eye on before they came to prominence as the talent has always been obvious to me but i can only commend both atalanta and sampdoria for getting them at a right price. Danish international team and football in general has a decent ammount of fairly young players… Read more »
Just read that Chelsea has extended Bakayoko contract by another year so his value can go up a bit. Just like they did with Giroud. Read that Chelsea has a way of inserting automatic clause in players contract to enjoy this kind of advantage . We should also learn from this kind of business acumen rather than to allow our valuable players to go in reckless abandon. Calhanoglu and Donaruma for example. Clubs are making things turfer for us.If we don’t have money to buy solid and young players then we should not let our young players go for cheap.… Read more »
Marina granovskaia chelsea’s transfer head is some real brain. She knows how to conduct business deals. After giroud and now bakayoko that’s how deals are done not like us whose are now wondering how to tame kessie’s agent.
under joined Marseille. loan with option for 9M. in the meantime we are still begging for discount in Tonali deal.
Oh I made the mighty Maldini fans angry!
Your last comment on previous post was ace in the hole… I wonder what torture maldini must be going through dealing with clubs and players regarding transfer with no money and ops should I add with begging bowl in hand. What can he do he is just an employee who happens to love Milan to the core. The only positive in Milan’s transfer strategy is maldini’s charm offensive rest we are just standing in an empty street and looking at the clubs door if any one can let us in.
it’s an emotional response to a very serious situation. Any name beside Maldini had such actions, fans would have go for his head. let’s be clear about something. I love Maldini as a legendary player. I don’t love him as a person and I will evaluate his management skills without any emotion. I never asked Maldini to buy 100M players. I asked him to just look at the Market and choose cheap options we can buy. Under was a good option for our right side. Hysaj is the full back we are missing. losing two expensive players on free transfer… Read more »
What ever mirabelli done in transfer market but he certainly did manage to knock mino off his feet’s. Gigio was never inclined to sign at first place but fans backlash and mirabelli creating the hype by going in media did the trick. I guess maldini was a bit too much nicer with both players and hence they waited for right opportunity to move on. This was really a bad strategy and how many players did we missed. Under is definitely an upgrade on rw. But the policy of wait and watch did the damage. I will give you another example… Read more »
I agree with you. However to mu knowledge milan also has salary cap which is max. 4Mio/year.
It means a free agent is not automatically cheap according to this management. I don’t know how much Hysaj earned at Napoli before and how much he will to join a new club.
We all know how de Laurentiis deals with player and hysaj was earning somewhere around 2.8 m yearly. We would have snapped him for free with agents commission which shouldn’t cross much. If we had spread with his contract for three or four years and this would have been helpful. The issue with us neither we wana spend or neither we gona cross salary cap and then we aim for the top. We rely too much on players will and my friend business isn’t done like this these days. I am totally lost and confuse which direction are we heading.
regarding hysaj i was all for us getting him but he would have ended up as our substitute for calabria and theo and in that regard paying nearly 3 mil a year for him certainly would give calabria the insentive to demand above that so maybe the reason we didnt get him was because the club didnt want to tumble the financial structure and start an avalanche of new demands. To my knowledge it hasnt been made public what the agent got in comision and im just saying this as a possibility and not as a fact but for what… Read more »
Valid point regarding hysaj salary and unbalancing our financial structure. This is exactly what I was thinking if we have to sell Pobega and hauge then I just hope this amount is utilised on getting players like berradi or belloti to make our statement in seria a. We need signings through some shrewd investments or we will be left behind in coming season. But back clauses just like Madrid are doing is must we should have some guarantees on our potential future superstars. All and all for solid project to take off we definitely need some smart investments.
Absolutely if that cash isnt invested well then i think all milan fans are in their good right to become angry but i believe that we will make some investment to take a leap forward even if still small baby steps. “BIG” signings though propably wont happen before towards the end of the transfer window where teams will try to offload some players and we can jump in and get deals at more favourable terms than currently. Yeah buyback clauses are essential and we could also learn a thing or two from how juventus who invested in youth and then… Read more »
As far as Pobega and Atalanta is concerned I have a gut feeling it has to do with illic (wish I hope not) I would happily take Pessina back than go for illic though once again it’s my speculation.
well first of all i dont mind illicic joining us but im not especially fond of that idea of a swap deal involving those two players. When that is said if we value pobega at 12-15 and they value the atalanta player at 6-8 and pay us the remaining cash and then insert a buyback clause set at 10-12 mil id accept it but i seriously doubt that the bergamo team would do that so overall a BIG no from me. Pessina is going nowhere but yeah if we could insert pobega into such deal id be more willing to… Read more »
hysaj agreed 5 years deal of 1.8m with Lazio. the only thing that is disturbing our team is our inexperienced management
Well if 1.8 mil a year holds up to scrutiny and there wasnt some crazy sign-on fees involved as well we should have gotten him but either way im behind the management who actually has done a lot with little resources and regardless that i disagree on some decisions both pioli and the management has actually made us reach cl for the first time since 2013-14 season so they must be doing some things right even if milan has a lot of disgruntled fans.
Sign on fees depends on what type of player we are looking at. With Gigio, mino demanded crazy money tbh the player was worth giving to block him temporarily and then sell him. Well he is gone now and this is one thing I don’t agree with management. Now each decision has its merits and demerits but it’s Elliot who I am mad at. The reason we literally had to shake poor guy tonali to make his move permanent now this confused me more. We were lucky last around juve was coached by amateur, inter was like run away train… Read more »
Ofcourse it depends on the player and his agent and obviously more high profiled players without a contract will tend to cost more but still it doesnt change the fact that hysaj and his agent could have demanded sign-on fees so the deal would cost ten mil combined for what we know. Unless there are some official numbers we can see it will be nothing but mere speculation to say that lazio actually did a great deal or that we missed out on one. Well had we signed gigio we would have had to pay gigio 10-12 mil + 20… Read more »
I wonder if tonali had not accept a salary reduction would milan have abandon the transfer, I don’t like this owner at all, milan will not succeed with them, the club must be sold fast
Honestly, this Tonali case is really embarrassing.. Without sentiment, I think Maldini and Co goof here. That means we did not do our assessment well before we went for him in the first place. This does not look good. The poor boy even have to offer salary reduction to make the move permanent.
I think the amount was a bit high to start with for tonali , all the hype and being close to a transfer to inter and being in azzurri squad
obviously put his value prob higher than it should have been last season
Whilst Tonalis gesture is admirable and must be applauded, this whole saga is embarrassing. The way things are going we are going to end up asking Brescia to pay us too. Let’s get these renewals done already after all the players deserve it. And why are we selling Hauge? Have we not learnt anything. True Pioli does not use him, but I dont think anybody expects Pioli to be our long term coach. That’s why we cannot build our team around Pioli. Pioli might be sacked next season and then we will regret selling Hauge to please Pioli.
like we lost locatelli because gattuso didnt want him, only for gattuso to leave too
With you on this one. The fact that the management is selling an immense young talent in Hauge (which they’ll certainly regret) – it worries me more that Krunic isn’t mentioned anywhere in the sales department.
Krunic and Castillejo are not mentioned in transfer but people like leao, hauge and Colombo who have potential are being plan on getting sold
The problem is nobody is interested in them
No one wants krunic & cAstellejo and they ain’t worth shit … that’s why dickhead
Fuck you count face
Selling hauge is a mistake , he’s more the future than Rebic . We never learn from past mistakes .
We will sell him for peanuts , he will go and show his worth and be worth 25 mil in a year or 2 and
There we will have another locatelli pessina type situation . $15 loss on paquetta , dollarumma & hakan walking for free .. pasilic pessina locatelli
Andre Silva … long list of fuck ups
It looks like Gazidis is going to turn Milan into another Arsenal, letting go of quality players and only go for cheap players with low salary and youngsters. Even those younger once they reach a certain stage of maturity and salary we will be selling like Arsenal. Gazidis is no good, I guess Elliot are only looking at financial side not sporting side.
Can you believe Kessie salary of 5m is still an issue… I mean what other players will think when we are hesitant to give one of the most important players just 5m.
I will wait and see.
If this management don’t give kessie and Calabria a new contract before the season starts I will boycott the club, I won’t watch any match next season till the current owner leaves, cheap bastard, a good agent shouldn’t bring is player to Milan because they won’t offer him a good salary, they will instead ask him to reduce is wages
Now you watch Hauge destroy Bundesliga, De Bruyne style
This is turning into a fukin mess
Everyone will want to leave and we won’t be able to afford any decent players .
This window is a fukin nightmare
Players can’t be happy with some of the dealings
And now tonali situation .
Kessie & Theo leave and we are finished
Back to mid table
Maldini may not have all the experience but definitely the God of football live in him like Zidane… I believe he will make a good squad for us… He will sign a quality 10 with Diaz to support and a good right winger… A good striker too but not a popular one… And I would love to see Bakayoko back he’s a direct challenge to kesse which will be good… Forza Milan
In your dreams, trying to be optimistic is not cool, milan 10 said the same thing you where saying but where is him now, they sold is best player (hakan) to inter for free now he has left the blog and is now a interister
:)))) I was actually thinking about him… Conte and Ashraf left inter but Milan10. is still the worst thing that happens to them this year.
A “big name” number 10 won’t solve out other areas – ST, RW and deputies DM, RB and LB
It’s a very bad dealing from the management what is actually there problem tonali has to reduce is peanut he is earning compare to other players in other clubs just to play for Milan he loves and we can not give him a good salary it’s very bad I just want this Elliot to leave and let’s have some oil tycoon to come manage this club and let’s pay and get reasonable players because I can tell u deep down in the players mind there will be like what’s going on I still don’t know if there will want to… Read more »
Stefano Pioli has to be removed to make place for a proven, high-quality strategist in the bench to not only make use, but elevate the talent within the team. Pioli, for some reason, counted out Hauge despite early glimpses of positive results, and ignored Paqueta altogether to make place for Krunic and Castillejo (I admire Samu’s spirit, I think we all do). Paqueta has showed up in Lyon and lately in Brazil’s national team in the Copa Américana. Having Pioli stay for one more season will cost the development of the team immensely, as his “strategy” is forcing out great… Read more »
he is incapable of change. very slow. no place in left? try him at right. put him in center. it’s not hard to see this kid has potential. apparently the deal is done. our genius management is celebrating the fact that they made a capital gain.
Hauge would be next regret we will have. Paqueta shining for Brazil. Andre explosion on Bundesliga & Donna shining on Euro (I hate the last one)
I was always thinking that someone is sabotaging milan. Main suspect is of couse Pioli. He seems working as scout for other clubs. He will waste best talents in milan, so other clubs can buy them cheaply. He tried everyone EXCEPT Hauge in other posistions, Leao,Rebric as RW failed, Meite as AM failed, Krunic as LW,AM never impressed.Moreover he gave a lot of chance to never impressed players like samu or even Mandzukic. Now Atalanta,Leicester interested in Pobega. Management will be tempted to make so called bullshit Capital Gain. Pioli is in his final contract next season. It will be… Read more »
Jorge for free in January, Belotti to share time with Ibra now. ikone at RW and Sabitzer at AM and you have an excellent and deep attack full of quality and experience, but also a mix of youth and desire. We won’t do this transfer plan but I’d absolutely love it if we did.
are they available on dry loans? because we like it dry!!
Belotti to me is a no go now, he’s shown he’s past his prime and not getting better. Isak or kaio Jorge need to come this summer. Isn’t Jorge only 10 mil? If so why’s this taking soo long. Ikone has to come, only other option I see is getting Doku. Either one is needed. As cam we can use hauge and Diaz, but again, this management is ass and won’t make smart decisions
Santos Borre signed by Eintrakht as Andre Silva replacement. “On free transfer”. he is a player capable of playing as forward, Attacking midfielder and winger on both flanks. something between Gomez and Chicharito.
I bet they will sell him next year for 25 30M.
meanwhile… Maldini & Gaizidis are still begging cab drivers, barbers & restaurants for discount so maybe the can finalize Tonali deal.
Now let’s analyze this who is to be blamed Elliot gazadis Pioli Maldini because I know each have a role in this club there play because am not understanding what’s going on euro as almost finish copa America as well still yet no prospect of we signing a positive signing aside looking for dry loan all over the continent this is not Milan tradition
And pls can anyone explain to me why our management are signing players on a 4yr deal instead of 5 + additional 1yr like most clubs are doing. First it’s Fikayo on 4yrs deal and now Tonali, they will start another contract extension after 2-3yrs from now.
This is crazy…..
I don’t know what you guys are blabbing about, this is the best mercato we have had in a long time, maldini and co operate smart reducing the wages bill and making capital income with clever cheap signing to strengthen the club, this is how all our window should be, Elliot singer, gadizi, sacroni maldini and massara all are doing exceptionally well, we will never go bankrupt with this strategy all our transfer window profit will be made and our wages bill will be light, those greasy players who want big pay rise will all be wiped out, and those… Read more »
What? Is this guy trolling?
regardless whether people likes it or not milan does need to think about the economics of the club and better have a leadership that seems stingy than someone buying all the players we the fans want and thereby condemning us to getting banned from europe or in worse case scenario ending up bankrupt. Yeah i know its not a popular thing to say that but fact is that to my recollection we have financial restraints in regard of ffp and currently is running with a 200 mil deficit in the last year or something and that with a pandemic on… Read more »
yeah that’s why I’m suggesting all the cheap quality players. right now with 9M, we could have signed Hysaj, Borre & Under to solve our LB, RW & CF problems. believe it or not there are other quality players available for next to nothing. we are slipping my friend.
well hysaj we did dsicuss yesterday and if the number you mentioned are 100% correct i also said we should have gotten him but then theres the question what kind of sign-on fees both for the player and his agent was involved that could be decisive whether it would be deemed as a good deal or not. There might also be the question whether hysaj would accept joining the club and become a substitute as he might have been promised a starting position at lazio. Borre was a player that i looked up previously due to players with ending contracts… Read more »
Well said bro
Thanks
the main question is: Who is “we”?
We the fans, though some fans are against the management, but in due time their hearts will come to love the owner and management
and who made you their spokesperson?
Am not anybody spokesperson, am just saying the management are doing a great job in the club and the results in the field and finances prove it
It’s been a shitty 10 years to be a Milan fan, but after just one season of qualifying for the CL we shouldn’t be all too happy – and we cannot coin this mercato a success thus far. So this is clearly a joke.
But, if management satisfies Kessie’s demands and agree on a 5 year (+ 1 year option) and somehow have a change of heart regarding Hauge – while bringing back Dalot and Diaz (on options to buy) AND somehow land one of Ziyech, Sabitzer or Isco – it should be a fine mercato.
This is the most absurb statement I have heard where do they get people like you from, why must some fans still support the management system even though it shit, I just don’t understand
How is the club performance and the finances since Elliot came
We are fans what’s my business with capital gain?
I want a team which can beat Inter juventus Roma Napoli and Atlanta not capital gain
Will they give u from the gain?
Or if u lose against these above teams and ur friends are laughing hard at you to give u sleepless night and depression
Will u tell them u have capital gain?
Please they should buy quality players with the money from the league and champions league
You said capital gain his shit but did you think man utd can spend without gain the most important thing for a club is to make profit, it even important than sporting performance that why man utd despite messing up after Ferguson erra where still a big club
Chelsea are interested in the possibility of signing Franck Kessie from AC Milan amid uncertainty over his contract, according to a report.
The agent of kessie also said that he wants to stay ““Only a coup d’etat can send the President away from Milan”.
so im pretty confident to say that he will endup staying as the management are aware of his importance for the team,
I think too much irrelevant is written in news these days. After Gigio and hakan I am sure management won’t be that crazy to let him go off the hook that easily. Hopefully will find a way to satisfy both parties. But Kessié does deserve a decent pay rise the performance he has shown in last one year and more he is worth 4.5m per season.
Absolutely theres a lot of bs nowadays only for the reason to gain clicks on the articles but yeah i dont see us losing kessie on a free either. Worst case scenario he would be sold for a fairly hefty fee to an english team but i dont see that happening either as the management are aware of his value to the team and club. Im sure he will get a good deal offered that he in the end will accept and that meaning a salry at 5-5.5 mil or something. Anyways i’ll propably wont reply anyfurther today and maybe… Read more »
As much as I want Dane to win today but in final it’s Italy all the way..
denmark might be out now and its completely against who i generally am but an italy team without ac milan players is not an italian team ill cheer on so my hope to see donnarumma humuiliated still lives strong 😛
Let’s just calm down and watch what will happen at the moment Maldini is still a successful director for Milan so far cuz he achieved Champions league competition for us not only that but we are second in the table which nobody expected before the beginning of the season… Let’s wait and see the miracle he will do this season
Exactly, the result does not lie. If we are able to participate champion league every season and challenge for the title, I would say be cheap and do whatever you want. Or would you rather get the player you prefer and fail to qualify CL and fail to challenge the title?
Well said, they is nothing wrong with basing our system like arsenal did before with Wenger, as long as we qualify for cl and are always in top 3 in the league we should be ok, arsenal didn’t need to win cl to be a big club gadizi understand that and want the same for milan our finance is going to be positive
I would be happy because this is better than the past 7 mid table years. At least we are in CL, not some lower EL. Eventually, I want someone super rich to take over Milan. So we can go back to the old days. For now we have to be happy for the improvement.
I am sure some of the fans here are unrealistic. We have been average for so long and now we came back to where we belong (challenge for the title and get in CL for more CL trophys). Why are people thinking this is a bad thing? I do not like how Elliott has been cheap. The result is more important. I asked a simple question: would you rather get the players you want or would you rather team win trophys. I got -2, obviously there are multiple accounts that is selfish enough to put personal desire (want) above team’s… Read more »
Well said…. Correct
I totally agree with what you said, we fans all have our emotions and are attached with club though at times we become unrealistic. You are dead right as well trophies and result are important, but they are interconnected with players that play for the team. Either anyone agrees or not we did lost two players who last season played important role in finishing second or helped team in getting atleast 6 to 10 points. Now some will argue we got magic mike and that’s fair argument but where is number 10? That’s the position which pulls the strings for… Read more »
We are really suffering the results of poor management.
Last night Donnarumma, Locatelli, pessina all played important roles in Italys success.
Add to that Chiesa and Olmo, the best players on the pitch we “tried ” to sign
Paqueta and Silva have exploded also, tho in fairness they were given their chance.
Bow we are looking at losing Pobega, Olzer, Hauge.
Surely someone in the club can see what the difference is between Talented young prospects and limited journey men professionals!!!
If Kessie and Theo leave I’m done with this team, after 30 years of support
We can argue what’s best for Milan, but the owners actually knows what’s best for Milan. Wether we like it or not, they built a team for EL and the boys with Pioli, and Ibra managed to finish 2nd. Look at the miserable team of Barcelona and Real Madrid when compared to what they had 8 years ago. The situation is not normal, we don’t have an own stadium but complainers will always complain, 1- because they don’t understand football or finances. 2- because they think that being angry shows that you are a fan. This ownership is prudent, being… Read more »
I agree we dont have to go crazy with signings, but that is only true if we keep hold of our best young prospects! We do desperately need a striker, a no. 10 and a RW. Also we need to tie players down to contracts so they have some value. Not a series of loans and options, with that every window we are barely able to keep hold of the players we have. Thus far our window has revolves around trying to keep Hakan, Gigio, Kessie, Dalot, Diaz, Tomori, Tonali, Ibra…… That has left not time or money for actually… Read more »
I dont even remember of anyone asking for crazy signings here. Asking for Thauvian or Hysaj who were free is definetly not crazy. Nor is crazy to ask for players within the 20mil range as Fiorentina and Lazio are buying. And lastly asking to keep players once they improve is not crazy either for a team that claims that their aim is to be at the top.
Exactly, we asked for ikone. He’s 30 mil and they claim he cost too much and yet we are going for damsgaard and berardi, both 30 mil and above. Could have got daka, he was only 20 mil!!!!. Should have got szoboszlai 2 years ago, for just 25 mil!! Adil is only 10 mil, should have offered that the moment we actually have wanted him so he wouldn’t have time to think. Kaio Jorge I belive is 10 mil( correct me if I’m wrong about that). A forward, something we need, and they want him for jan so he can… Read more »
I totally agree on you last paragraph. All we are asking our fans to do is to be bit more patient. Especially after we just qualified CL with a squad supposed to settle for Europa league. This is different lots of hope for the future. Let’s wait and see what kind wonders our management can pull again, they deserve our full support. We should unit to support the team when it is heading on the positive note.
They have had all the time and patience they deserve. We dont want to watch the bones of this team being picked apart by vultures!
That requires management that is strong and swift in their action. Also showing some class and dignity befitting a club of Milans stature.
If they sell off Hauge for some average work horse like sabitzer I’ll do my nut!
Pay Calabria and Kessie what they deserve!
Open the purse and buy Damsgard!
You just said my guy, we are in ucl now. Do you want to stay in ucl or go back to being a mid table team. We don’t even have a complete first 11! Zlatan is literally the walking dead, we have no cam that belongs to us, and our rw literally provides no goals! My patients is gone. We want to sell our best youngsters and then replace them with who? Those youngsters were already back up players. We will have to not only buy 3 players for the 3 glaringly obvious positions that need it, but then go… Read more »
Yeah it’s a real shame Damsgard was not signed before the whole world saw his talent at the Euros, Milan will be down the list of suitors.
Begging for loans and not paying agreed buyout clauses will put off clubs/players dealing with them
Good point here, what you may not realize is that if we do not get enough reinforment. That force us to not sell young players such as Hauge. Guess what, that also force Pioli to use young players.
Everyone saying we are going to lose Kessie and Calabria. They are both signing new contracts in the next 2 weeks. WITH MILAN. This goes again to show. Some fans are whiny little kids who have no patience and want everything NOW. Completely true of this generation of people.
You do understand that Milan have to brake their self imposed salary cap in order to renew Kessie ? So the fans were right when they said that this management strategy was bad and was going to make us lose players. Backing out from their original strategy just shows that this management was wrong and the fans were right all along.
No. It shows that they were negotiating. “Fans” are just that. Fans. If they werent. They would be making the decisions and more than likely the team would be bankrupt in 6 months. This isnt Fifa. this is real life
And their negotiations strategy failed just as many fans predicted, so now they have to abonden their salary cap if they want to keep Kessie. Im not sure how you can not see that they were in the wrong all along. The managment is literatly backing out on what they said,or in other words accepting they were wrong. Yes in real life this is how things go, if you dont pay players they are leaving.
While I agree. There are players that you need to break the cap for. Having a cap is a great thing to make sure we NEVER miss out on Europe again. Kessie has earned the pay raise. You can never argue going in at a low number in negotiations. I do it for a living.
Kessie has warned the pay raise so why are Milan being difficult. It’s taking too long and it sends the wrong message to the players performing at top levels. Calabria by the looks of it is almost about to renew, but again, it took too long. You say going in with low offers first is smart? I say it’s the opposite. All that tells me is the club can barely afford to pay it’s too talents and if I want a raise again, they most likely can’t give it to me. So I might as well look somewhere else.
You never go into a negotiation saying. “What do you want Ill give it to you” lol. Jesus some of you are amazing. It took too long? They are under contract until next year. It took too long for you maybe.
Your right you don’t go in like that, however, you also don’t go in and give an absolutely disrespectful offer like they did with calabria and kessie. Your saying they are under contract till next year. Next year they would be free my guy. It’s the same situation with Donna and hakan. We lose all leverage waiting and waiting and waiting. You claim your in negotiations right, well then you must admit the management are extremely poor at it when they are constantly going in on the back foot
Spot on Nathan. You dont earn respect of your employees like that
Yes you can, it’s called insulting those who deserve better!
Just read Pioli is asking for belotti. His euros performances have been disgusting! Why not go for raspadori or scamaca. Someone who isn’t past their prime!
Belotti set Berrardi up for a beautiful chance yesterday. Domenico couldnt convert. TWICE.
Lmfao belotti also could make a simple pass to I believe berrardi 1v1 with the keeper. Belotti in each game he’s come in has been lost, looks out of shape, can’t control a ball, doesn’t press! He’s horrible plain and simple
Oh you misunderstood. I wasnt saying Belotti was great lol. I was just saying he did have some good moments but they have been few and very far between in this tournament.
Oh ok you had me worried for a min lmao don’t scare me like that lol I do think Isco is good to. He has the skill and vision we need to feed our forwards proper defense splitting passes. Problem is we have consistently showed we aren’t willing to spend 25 mil on a player even if they are worth it. What do you think of kaio Jorge? I don’t think we should wait to get him for free. He’s only 10 mil ♂️
Iscos price is 18 million currently. Just reported today. And when we sell Hauge thats where the money will go. (apparently). Or sabitzer. I think Jorge will be good. However its hard because of the stupid 2 non EU player rule
I personally like the idea to sign Isco, and he is cheap, but his wage is 8mil. I don’t know how we are going to pay him.
Getting rid of hauge will be a stupid decision. He can play in any attacking role but cf. why can’t we spend our own money on a player that’s not even at 20 mil. This is not good signs man for real. We lack depth remember. Why are we getting rid of players when we need more
Real Madrid valued Isco at 18 mil. The problem is his high wage at 8mil already.
We are also seriously looking at Isco who I think would be a huge get.
And what did Immobile showed in this tournament til now? 2 goals, that’s poor considering he’s a starter. I’d love to see Belotti in red and black. Big, strong, able to pass, hold the ball and of course, milanista by heart. His Italy performance is irrelevant.
Lmao trust me, I have the same view on immobile. He’s been an embarrassment for Italy. They should have taken kean and scamaca. Milan should get scamaca over belotti for sure. He’s not good man and he’s showing it
Belotti did not play well that we all agree, but he was a sub. I mean, it’s not like he played terrible. Immobily did not play well either. Immobily is still a nice forward to have for just about any team.
When belotti came on and when he started the 3rd game I believe, he was not good. These players are slowing down and their touch is going with it. Any sort of pressure and they fumble around. If we are going to play a target striker, we need better than what those guys can give as of right now
But Pioli requested Belotti….
And that’s the fuckin problem! If he wanted an Italian, get someone with upwards potential. Raspadori and scamaca or kean! That’s who he should be requesting! Not belotti who wasted his time at Torino. He had his chance and didn’t force his hand. Are we not tired of the same old ass routine? Getting old has been a wont help us
There have always been players who shine at national level but struggle to step up to international club/country level.
Immobile and Belotti are 2 of these, decent strikers for serie A but not good enough for top level.
We need better faster forwards
its well known that forwards often top their game exactly at the age belotti currently holds so not so sure we would be better off with a younger one. Remember inzaghi he joined us when he was 28 and nobody would say he didnt become a milan great. I have a feeling that belotti would be able to score just as many goals as inzaghi did with us and maybe more and atleast his stats shows thats in his reach as he has better stats in turine than pippo had with us and that tells a lot about belottis capabilities… Read more »
Shit I hope y’all are right, but I just don’t see it being as successful as getting someone like scamaca, raspadori, malen, daka etc. honestly, this is the difference in mediocre coaches and good coaches. Pioli ask for players like giroud and belotti, and others ask for malen, daka. All we can do is hope it works out and I really do hope it works, we need ucl every year.
Well scamacca i would support as well, raspadori potential but pretty unproven and not really a guarantee for goals as he has yet only scored 8 goals in 42 games in his entire career. mahlen a mino raiola player so a no go for me. daka left for leicester and is yet to prove him at a bigger stage. Sorry nathan but what the hell has this to do with pioli being mediocre half of the players you mentioned has only been playing in below serie a level and raspadori hasnt proven to be a goal scorer in serie a.… Read more »
Raspadori would be nice. Haven’t pay much attention to Scamaca yet.
We were linked with him but those links went cold. He had a good year. I just don’t get why we are going back to those days of getting old players. Zlatan is diff bc he brought the mentality that was missing. Giroud doesn’t offer anything extra. This team lacks speed in cf, cam and rw. Yes even cam needs speed bc of the system we use, he has to cover a lot of space. There’s a reason why we never really counter down the right or middle.
England used fluke to get a pk Because it’s wembley which is actually not a pk am cheering for italia come Sunday
Big countries are always favorized in any sport. That clearly wasn’t a penalty.
So In a situation like Italy England now final if such a situation occur would England be favorite I feel both are big countries so maybe Italy will have a fair chance that day the England team not to fantastic there were held by Denmark and even outplayed at some point so I belive the azzurries can bring the cup home
England is bit bigger and more influencial country, it won’t be like with Denmark but England will still be favorized a bit even with Italy.
This entire tournament has been outline for the English. You realize they have played at home every game except for 1. There was 2 balls on the field and the ref did stop the game, which is what’s supposed to happen. The ball boys clearly wasting time and throwing balls in to get inter way, and a blatant dive that was given as a pk, the easiest run in to the finals, and yes, this Germany was one of the weakest German teams we’ve all seen. Italy literally need to save us from the English media, it’s going to be… Read more »
Honestly the media is another source of concern here there have Been hyping all the players talking about England national team more than any other teams that came at some point was supporting Denmark honestly because of the way the media as blown this England team out of proportion I hope the azzurri come out with victory here so we all can rest from this England madness I believe there have the squad to take on the English team please i don’t know if Chiesa is fit to play the final.
Bro your not lying. The media and the fans are the most annoying, delusional fans we’ve seen. And we gotta deal with them every time the just so happen to be doing good. There’s no modesty, humbleness or anything from those groups of ppl. Look at when Spain, Italy, Germany, France win, or are considered favorites. You don’t hear any of the noise from the media or fans like you do with the English. These countries let the players and results do the talking.
I am very worried that the fans in the stands are going to influence the ref into making bad decisions. The ref allowed 7 minutes of injury time, gave a dubious penalty, and was blowing the whistle anytime an English player was touched. 80000 fans are expected even though England is being destroyed by the Delta Variant. It just seems like this was all scripted to be honest. I hope that Italy comes out and dominates them but I am very worried.
Exactly, you can see it the entire time. Everything has been set up for them to succeed for whatever reason. England is a small powerhouse compared to the real big boys
What worries me is how blatant it is.
Your not lying. The bias towards the English is plain and clear for everyone to see. I don’t see why they are being pushed to succeed so badly.
