"Ibra resta. Thiago non lo so", said Adriano Galliani according to the Corriere Dello Sport. In
English; ‘Ibra stays and Thiago, I do not know'. Indeed, worrying words from Uncle Fester.
Speaking of his tthe circus surrounding our Brazilian maestro, Arrigo Sacchi, the former Milan boss
summed it up nicely: "Thiago Silva is the best [.
Liverpool midfielder Alberto Aquilani could still leave Anfield for AC Milan this summer, according
to talkSPORT.
The Italy international has been on a season-long loan to the Serie A giants, but failed to reach
the required number of appearances to trigger the £6m buyout clause. As part of the loan
agreement, had Aquilani reached 25 games AC Milan would have had the automatic option to sign the
27-year-old.
AC Milan have confirmed that Manchester City target Thiago Silva is poised to remain with the
Serie A runners-up due to the player's own satisfaction at being with the Italian club.
City had hopes to bolster their defense with the addition of the acclaimed Brazilian defender
but Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani made it clear yesterday that both the club and the player
will do everything possible to honor the current contract.

The Italian spent the whole 2011-12 campaign on loan at Milan, but did not play enough games for
the Serie A side to trigger a clause in his contract that would have seen him join AC Milan
permanently.
AC Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani revealed that the club will not be taking up the option
to sign Alberto Aquilani but could do so at a later date.
Their Words "We'll play Chelsea on 28 July in Miami – announced Adriano Galliani today – then
on 4 August in Pittsburg, we'll play against another team yet to be decided and we'll have a
friendly against Real Madrid on 8 August in New York in the marvelous New York Yankee stadium." AC
Milan CEO Adriano Galliani.
The season is barely two weeks old and already rumours are strife regarding Milan's two stars,
Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Thiago Silva. The latter, in particular, is being coveted by some cash-upped
clubs like Barcelona and Manchester City, apparently. It seems Milan will have to depart with one
their two stars, if reports are to be believed, but, who should they allow to depart if one of them
needs to be let go?
You can get addicted to a certain kind of opinion, an opinion that lives on through generations and
even centuries. The opinion I present here lies somewhere between such everlasting sentiments and
my very own personal view that is based on my thoughts about the Milan empire. So let's begin.
There is speculation flying around [.
AC Milan recently launched their new kits for the 2013 season with a campaign
featuring Ibrahimovic, Kevin-Prince Boateng, Antonio Nocerino and Thiago Silva.
Let's not forget Ambrosini, who was strategically positioned at the front because
well, you all know how much Milan love their veterans!
"The real regret for this year, as I said it to [Silvio] Berlusconi on the phone, is about Gattuso
and Cassano....with the two of them we would have gained some more points," were the words of
Adriano Galliani today 24 hours after Milan's four-goal rout of Siena. While it is not so easy to

"We're going to lose this match," said a Romanista prior to last night's
Juve-Roma meeting at the Juventus stadium. "I know it."
Unfortunately, it wasn't a case of that sinking feeling you get prior to a derby. She was right
about the loss and it wasn't very kind to her either- a 4-0 drubbing of Antonio
Conte's men!
"I don't feel that my job is at risk". These were the words of Max Allegri following his side's
surprise defeat to Fiorentina on Saturday. The loss enabled Juventus – still unbeaten this season
– to leapfrog the Rossoneri into first place. Consequently, and most predictably, the Milan
tactician has come under pressure with his [.
"I'm not a doctor, but according to Professor Jean Pierre Meersemann, who I really respect, in
America they have found a definitive solution to Alexandre Pato's problems." These were the words
of Adriano Galliani before Milan's midweek Champions League clash against Barcelona. And, in this
game we all know what happened; after just fifteen minutes [.
It was in the fourtieth minute of the game. It was one a piece to both sides, a score-line that
would have put Milan through and Barcelona out. The Catalans had no doubt been the better side,
but, they had not converted their possession into goals. Just like last week. Milan were on a high

These are the kind of quotes that don't do so well when they get translated into English. But
it's also Adriano Galliani the occasionally deranged AC Milan vice-president whom
we're talking about so you could probably excuse him. And try not to imagine thoughts of colourful
rainbows and two men skipping into the sunset : "Carlitos y Adrianito Amigos de
Futbol" would be a fantastic pilot for a cartoon show.
AC Milan won't make a move for Manchester City striker Carlos Tevez in the summer this is
according to Milan vice president Adriano Galliani. Tevez who starred in City's 2-1 win over
Chelsea on Tuesday was on the brink of signing for the Italian giants this January however, City's
£25 million asking price proved to be to much for the cash strapped Italians.
AC Milan Vice President Adriano Galliani has vowed that the Rossoneri will never wear a black
jersey again during away matches. This comes after Milan lost 3-0 away to Arsenal in the Champions
League last week.
According to Galliani, Milan's third strip black jersey brings bad luck to the team and he
insists that they will return to their yellow strip next season.
One feels the time has come for Milan to decide; to persevere with Pato or allow him to leave.
There have been numerous reports this season that the club are willing to sell him should the right
offer arrive. Indeed, in January he was almost sold to Paris Saint-German, and despite being
offered €35 million, [.
The rumour mill may continue incessantly as it always does, but, for the time being no players will
be swapping kits. Instead, now is the time for coaches to start preparing their troops, both new
and old, for the business part of the season. It is already February and that mad month of May is

27.01.2012 - "Estoy feliz, visto todo lo que ha ocurrido. Al
final ha llegado el premio de poder entrar en este gran equipo", dijo Maxi López ni bien
firmó contrato con el Milan. Entonces, Carlitos Tévez se enteraba de que (muy probablemente)
debería quedarse otros cinco meses en el infierno de Manchester (City).
Milan transfer guru Adriano Galliani definitely knows how to work a bargain. Since 1986, when he
started his long and prosperous career at the Via Turati, the man known as Uncle Fester has been
the man behind the scenes. The one who has engineered deals that have seen so many of the world's
best players [.
It has been an odd week for Milan. From the low that last Sunday's derby loss sank us to, the
club's fortunes rose steadily from one day to the next ending in triumphant fashion with a
convincing 3-0 win over Novara. The loss to the ‘Tinkerman's' Nerazzurri posed serious questions
over Max Allegri's men, from [.
Milan lost the weekend event 0-1 to city rivals Inter and word on the street is Pato ain't going
anywhere soon as owner Silvio Berlusconi has sent the word down he wants two upfront and that
means, for the time being, a Ibra-Pato partnership must bloom. Team vice-president Adriano Galliani
was quoted on the club's official website as saying, "We're still five points ahead of.
It has been a topsy-turvy week for Milan ahead of Sunday's clash with our dislikeable cousins
Inter. The headlines have been dominated by the transfer fiasco involving Carlos Tevez and
Alexandre Pato which has left doubts regarding the harmony, or lack of, at the Via Turati. Milan's
obsessive chase for Tevez the football mercenary escalated [.

bid worth more than €20 million was turned down by the club yesterday.

PSG is splashing some serious cash this transfer window. They are on the verge of signing
Alexandre Pato for €35 million from Milan for a three year deal. Leonardo is
also milking his popularity with Brazilian players to bring Kaka on board and is
offering €25 million for the services of the Real midfielder.
The recent resurgence of Inter in the Serie A and Milan's status as defending champions are nicely
setting up what should be an intense and fiercely fought Milan derby on Monday. Of course,
fireworks are always expected whenever these two sides meet at the San Siro. But, with the
Nerazzurri desperate to continue their climb [.
The latest from the Carlos Tevez transfer saga reveals that the striker has reached an agreement
with Italian giants AC Milan. According to Milan Vice President Adriano Galliani, an agreement
between Tevez, City and Milan has already been reached.
Of course this only creates more controversy as Milan's city rivals Inter are also thought to be
still interested in Tevez despite Milan's arrangement.
Here's a shot of AC Milan raising a toast to one another in Dubai during a boat
dinner party last night- although not everyone seems interested. This is where you need to bring in
some David Luiz craziness because he turns everything
into a party and even the classiest and broodiest Italian stallions on the table will want to be
part of that super cool group!
... and all through the land, rumours, scandal and transfer talk were at hand! What better way
to end the year here at Futbolita, at least where calcio is concerned, with a look at what lies
ahead in the upcoming year?
Barbara Berlusconi – daughter of disgraced former Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi,
member of Milan's board of directors, and Alexandre Pato's girlfriend – has been the subject of
much speculation as of late, with many gossip magazines claiming the beautiful blonde is carrying
Pato's child.
AC Milan vice president Adriano Galliani claims his side are nearer to closing the gap on
European champions Barcelona than Real Madrid.
Milan have already played Barca twice this season in the group stages of the UEFA Champions
League with the Rossoneri earning a notable draw at the Nou Camp in September before losing 3-2 at
the Giuseppe Meazza last month.
Milan's determination to sign Carlos Tevez has been unrelenting. I understand that Tevez is a great
player, of this there is no doubt. But, given his off-field troubles which have kept him off the
field at City, it's a little bizarre how Adriano Galliani and Co. are pulling out all the stops to
get their [.

plan.

doubt has to be of want away Manchester City striker Carlos Tevez.

more than a week ago.

Some shocking news for you today. Former Inter Milan and AC Milan Brazilian winger Mancini has
been sentenced to 2 years and 8 months in prison after he was found guilty of rape.
Not many will remember Mancini as a Milan player because he only made 7 appearances for the club
before returning to his boyhood club Atletico Mineiro, however, his stint with capital club Roma is
where his skill was brought to the fore.
