Will Milan be able to sign Ganso? Next week we will know

58

THE FIGC will decide whether Milan will be able to make a swoop for Ganso.

The Italian federation, FIGC, will meet next Tuesday (28/6/11) to decide whether Italian teams will have the option to sign two players who don’t have a European passport – or keep the rule the way it is today.

Many clubs and fans have complained that this law hurts Italian teams’ chances to succeed in Europe and should the FIGC change the rule it will be great news for Milan who will be then able to sign Ganso.

“Cassano will stay as long as…”
Flamini: “I want to stay and renew my contract”

Paulo Henrique Ganso is Brazilian and is considered a non-EU player, however, with the current law, Milan can sign only one player of this category and have already used their slot to sign the Nigerian Taye Taiwo.

While Taiwo is allowed to get a French passport, Milan are hopeful that the FIGC will change the rule so they could make a swoop for Ganso – who has been a target of the Rossoneri for over than two years now.

The 21-year-old will play the second leg of the Copa Libertadores final with Santos this week. He’s part of the Brazilian squad for the Copa America; this squad consists of Robinho, Thiago Silva and Alex Pato.

GanstaUnit99xx

lol, i’m gonna use that formation for on fifa 11 on my ps3 for the new ac milan team! :D FORZA AC MILAN!!!! AC MILAN WILL WIN THEIR 8th CHAMPIONS LEAGUE TROPHY!!

D-Bo

I like it, I think I would prefer this though, if El-Shaarawy is able to play on the wing:

Abate – Nesta – Silva – Taiwo

Robinho – Boateng – El-Shaarawy

Ganso

Pato – Ibra

Probably wishful thinking, but it is how I would like to see things shake out. Could even put Boateng on the left, put MVB in the middle and alternate Ganso/El-Shaarawy.

forza milan!

This is exactly the line up i want to see in milan next season!

Pato Is Brilliant

We believe in Uncle Fester! He will “bribe” FIGC!

Tafiardo Cardoso

we’ll see for next week, for milan it’s all about get Ganso or NOT..

Giancarlo

Yes we need to have this rule changed. We need Ganso. Not Kaka, not Hamsik… some may say I’m too focused on Ganso.. but he’s the real deal.

milanfan

Isn’t our top priority an lcm?? imo, we will get someone for that position before we even start to think of a trequartista. btw, i heard on a podcast that there’re rumours of milan trying out ibra as a trequartista because of his assists. what do u guys think?

Giancarlo

You may be right on the LCM part, but we still need a cam. Ibra as a trequartista? Horrible idea. He’s a striker. He doesn’t have the speed for being a trequartista… that’s not his role. That’s just some guys idea… I’ve never heard of Milan ever wanting to do that.

Don’t fix something that’s not broken.

Pete Acquaviva

I’ve heard Ibra toted as a trearquista as well.

He does like to play behind Pato when they play together, and it may not be a stretch for him to work back there, although I think he would end up getting frustrated even more than he already does.

And if speed is a factor for your trearquista Giancarlo, Ganso is set to disappoint in that aspect.

Giancarlo

I don’t think it would work because he doesn’t have the mobility to play in that role. He’s not a fast player.

milan

not sayin ibra would be great at CAM,but to say he is too slow is pointless considering ganso is slower then ibra or around the same speed.ibra could actually play there, he the thiago silva of attack(not as good in big games though),he can play anywhere in attack.still prefer ganso though,just saying…

Soran

If we get ganso as an ACM, then we have Prince that can play LCM, all though i prefer hamsik there giving the midfield more creativity.

Abiola

@giancalo u r right

elmickio

I don’t know why I don’t feel optimistic on this?

I just can’t see them shelling out 35 million on this young player, please let me be wrong!

Giancarlo

Santos reduced his price tag to 30 million… but that can still leave some room to negotiate perhaps to 25 million.

elmickio

Lets hope so Giancarlo, he looks the real deal.

yanu

a dream signing if we can get this guy

shoaib rizwan

i dont know why but i would prefer adam ljajic and lamela over him

ps i would love to see adam ljajic in a milan shirt

paolo

adam ljajic over GANSO????? do u even watch the two player! GANSO is on another lever compared to ADAM LJAJIC
i think u very confused my friend thats like comparing cristiano against cavani really bro!
ganso will run circle around adam ljajic!
……..hahahah

shoaib rizwan

i totally respect your choice
every body has their own openion and i respect yours
and i watch football
i only like ljajic because he plays like krachic

Kenny

It will b a huge signing, and who says hamsik isn’t needed, ganso and hamsik/motolivo a great team

mohammad

they should reveiw three last champions league to chang their mind.

Ouch!

If we can get both hamsik & ganso Ithink it would be special!

Ryo Indonesian

what about Radja Nainggolan, guys? need your oppinions. thanks.

billy

if this rule isnt changed. Its a crime against football. In humane. LOL… Ganso, Witsel, Montolivo & Astori is wat milan need. Ganso or Hamsik not both.

Raymond

I’ll be d most happiest person on earth if Ganso arrives at milan & i’ll be sure of a ucl semi-final ticket along wit Hamsik, Lamella & Montolivo or Aquilani. FORZA MILAN u’ll kill sumbody wit dis team.

milan fun zuki

i will pray for all of milan funs. and i hope Ganso can come.

Ryan

Wooohooo!! Good news finally!! Please FIGC change this damn rule its not really fair!! :(

D-Bo

I thought they said we’d know next week, last week.

All jokes aside, I would like to see this signing happen even with Al-Shaarawy signed. It will be nice to blend the experience of some of our midfield with some younger creative attackers. In my opinion it would benefit the youngsters to learn under Seedorf/Ambrosini/Gattuso for a year or two.

dave asante

he’s the best trequarista of his era. Wonderful ball control, good vision, accurate shots and great technique. All these attributes just at 21 he is just what we need. GRAZIE MILAN.

Luke

If the price tag is 30mil for Ganso, I am sure Galliani can buy him for 15 lol lol

nick

Hopeful they will change this rule along with some of the tax rules as well. So that Serie A teams can be more competitive in the transfer market. Serie A needs new stadiums as well. A project similar to the Bundesliga would be great for Serie A!

Ryan

Atleast the top 4 needs their own stadium! Juve already got their :/

nick

Yeah,I agree!

paolo

HAMSIK + GANSO!!!!!!
and then milan will be set!!!! and CL ready cant wait for this fransfer window to close!!!!
wana know my team already…..

mulamx1

the team we 4 2011/12
———-abbiatti
Abate—–Nesta—–Silva—-Taiwo

—————-MVB—————

fabregas/hamshik——-boateng

———–ganso

—–ibra——–robinho/pato

Ryan

hoping to get another surprise signing at the end of august :D like with Ibra

Maybe 2 Mr.Xx Aka Good players might come in Ganso and Montolivo preferably :D

for DM next summer we can go for M’villa as Gattuso/Ambrosini/MvB (all possibly retiring although i think we’ll see Gattuso around) replacement!

Ryan

Oh yeah and apparently Hamsik is worth way more than Pato

One good season and they get so full of themself geez

F.S.G.

Hello.
I’m not really sure about this, but I’ve heard Ganso has an Italian passport?

He has it in Football Manager too, but you never know.

Are you sure about what you are saying – that he has no Italian passport?

sheva fans

i think ganso not mr.x, if milan bring him, he’s just a part of idea to build strongest milan, remember identikit mr.x is blue eyes…n i still believe mr. x is gareth bale…so the gift from papa berlusco is ganso n bale… that’s i hope, n i always prey for that….

rossonero23

Good news.

Sign Ganso and Fabregas! Barca are reluctant to pay 35m. We should swoop in!

Ryan

Gareth Bale? He wont leave unless we pay 40-50m and even Galliani will reduce it as small as 35m and we can get someone way better like Hamsik or Montolivo with 5-10m lesser

Pete Acquaviva

Montolivo is not on the tier of Bale (who is still overrated) and Fabregas, and even Hamsik and Ganso.

He’s just a slightly better version of Aquiliani

Ryan

Yea right…Montolivo is way better than Bale….he is almost the same as Pirlo and has good Vision passing and some dribbling…oh he can tackle as well..

‘Montolivo is not on the Tier of Bale’ DONT MAKE ME LAUGH

forza italia

if needed, pls sell pato to get one nonEU place for Ganso. Pato is replacable.

Giancarlo

No he’s not. And while he has had fitness problems, he has one of the best goal scoring ratios in Italy. Just look at the figures. I’ve criticized the guy plenty… I wished he would track back more… but he’s not replaceable.

Okay, since you think he is… tell me who would replace him?

And will you guys stop suggesting Bale… Gentile was right. Bale is very overrated. The guy had a good half season… and was nowhere to be found the other part of the season. He’s totally overreated.

Ryan

Where do these morons come from? Sell Pato? Bale is Better than Montolivo? No offense but stop saying weird and confusing stuff

rossonero23

Bale’s crap…

Pato Is Brilliant

@ Forza Italia – You moron! Are you at of your mind? Sell Pato? You should be banned from this blog because only a Interfan would give this type of stupid suggestión like you did.

boateng_ganas

hahaha…don’t get mad..I don’t agree either of that idea of selling Pato..He still young..with tridente GANSO,ROBINHO,PATO,IBRA? Barca can hurts alot…

fyah-mayne

Santon is now for sale, don’t you think we should swoop for him? even with a bid of 8m?

rossonero23

yea…seedorf and pirlo worked out.

boateng_ganas

yeah if oddo leaves

Oy

Ganso is already a done deal, Mino Raiola, Braida, Galliani have been working on him since january, A journalist asked Raiola who milans Ms X is and he said he was working on him since january……. in january all milan was talking about was ganso and all ganso was talking about was milan. Galliani and Allegri are in complete harmony about this player. But Berlusconi said on national tv that if Milan would win the scudetto he would buy two big players….And when Berlusconi is in the mood to compete we all know he only buys super top players.
