sky 24,sportitalia,sky sport england,,all confirmed we readched agreemnt with caen for 2+2 mil for this kid and he will be on sunday here for medical.
i saw just 1 game and he was impressive yes he needs 1-2 years but top talent

you sure about that?

ikita · Aug 4, 2012

buy him. give him the no. 7. start him alongside pato, in front of el shaarawy. super youth ftw!!!!!!!!!

Goodfella · Aug 4, 2012

If we aren't gonna spend 5-6m on a player like Aquilani then we shouldn't spend 1 or 2m less on a prospect who hasn't WC talents.

Of the little I've seen, he reminds me of Sturridge. And will probably never become a top quality player, just like Sturridge.

necromancer · Aug 4, 2012

What a player is at 17 has often no relation to what he is at 22. So there's no guarantee of his future awesomeness, no matter how wunderkindish he is right now.

Not a Milan type of signing, but then, everything has changed this season... Milan are embarking on a very different youth-oriented transfer strategy. I dunno whether this would be successful or not.

So did you watch the guy before? Or at least hared of him before today news?

Dude,

.

I've heard about him from before, he's been linked with EPL clubs more that any other team.

For example another talent is Yannick Ferreira-Carrasco, he made his debut last week in the in ligue 2 for Monaco with a goal.

Lionheart · Aug 4, 2012

Arsenal have made an offer for him. We should hurry and get him, I'm lovin his swagg.

Aquilani is average.
For fuck sake stop making him like he is better.
4mil on a prospect make more sense than spending it on a guaranteed injury prone average when fit for 5 games / season.
Not saying I know or approve of Niang.

Like Galliani said, Milan can't buy stars, Milan (should) create them.

I don't know who this kid is but we now should look for (great) talents before they started to play on the top level league (first team division) or marked their names in medias. We all know the price of Oscar, Lucas and it is away out of our budget.

Either we get super talent like Pato for much money (I doubt we could now afford such sum of money, at best kind of Shaarwy IMO, maximum around 15 mil euros for U20 players) or make investments for hundred thousand till a couple of mil euros in talented players like we have been doing (Calvano, Hottor, Valoti etc). I read that we haven't given a lot (or enough) investments in youth (at least compared to Barca or Real) although our focus on youth has been getting much better in the last couple of years. What should be concerned is that we should not follow Arsenal's (Wenger's) path, take tons of kids. We should just get important talents and develop them to the level they are expected to.

About this guy, if no member have been following this kid REGULARLY, we should then trust our scouts.

if Berlusconi is really looking at a youth project them i'm not against purchases like this kid as long as we balance youth buys with some maturity in this team .he seems a good player and only 17 so for the right price it could be seen as a good investment.i still can't believe he is only 17 i mean he looks like he could be strasser's uncle .

It doesn't matter. An uncle could be much younger.

Will sign for milan. arsenal have withdrawn their interested after they refused to pay 7 million for him. Caen want most of the money now. arsenal was bidding 5 million in total and only 2 million in advanced. big talent, but not a priority for us as we have 2 young strikers loaned out on Afobe and joel Campbell

Niang 'interested' in Milan move

http://football-italia.net/22713/niang-interested-milan-move

Milan might’ve found the alternative to Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa, as Caen teen M’Baye Niang visited the club headquarters. “I am really interested.”

The Rossoneri had targeted Yanga-Mbiwa as the reinforcement for a defence that has lost Thiago Silva and Alessandro Nesta this summer, but Montpellier rejected the €6m offer.

Instead, L’Equipe claims Caen’s 18-year-old Niang has already visited the Milan training ground for a tour on Friday.

“I was so impressed, it’s magnificent,” he said of Milanello.

“I am really interested in Milan.”

The Under-21 France international, who originates from Senegal, has a contract until 2014 and an offer is expected by the end of the day.

:lol:

didnt know niang played CB, some of these sites need to do some homework :fp:

Niang is not too old, he's just 17. good luck replacing Zlatan with a 17 year old who scored 2 goals in the league last season. He had a trail at Arsenal and the fact that Wenger watched him a full week and isnt willing to pay over the odds should tell you everything. The same Wenger who spend 15 million pound on 17 year old Chamberlain when he was league 1 player. His talent is not amazing, but his speed and physique is impressive

He will not replace Zlatan if he comes. Probably will be loaned out.

Dont mean to be hyper critical or anything but most of the youth we signed are hyped and usually dont turn into stars.......regardless of race.

What if he's yellow.....or a redskin...or a brown latin ?

tonyb · Aug 7, 2012

People..people..people
Unless you know the guy dont judge.
I can tell you that lately the club is getting good youngstars.
This lad is wanted by the best clubs. It can only be seen as a positive thing if he joins. Look at his age again and hes playing in Ligue 1...If he joins I can tell you 100% that he will not play 4 the primavera because he is too good. He will go out on loan. People hype up the likes of Fosatti (he could be good but this was while in Lega Pro) but then bash this signing. :fp:

Gabriel was a quality signing too and so was Valoti and Pele.

So, how many games have you watched from this player?

RMC - AC Milan could make a loan offer for Niang with purchase option. (200 000 euros for the loan and 4M for the purchase option).

i dont see what my race has anything to do with it. look at the french players with black skin that we've bought as "talents" and they turn out to play in ligue 2 or somewhere else like that dominic adiyiah. god mention a minority skin colour and everyone automatically thinks your racist.
