Crespo ready for Rossoneri Sunday 16 May, 2004
(channel4.com)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hernan Crespo concedes he is prepared to take a pay-cut and sit on the bench if he can join Milan, while Frank Lampard also considers a Serie A switch.
“I must thank Carlo Ancelotti,” he told the ‘Gazzetta dello Sport’, “as he had a lot of patience with me.”
For several weeks now Ancelotti has been commenting in press conferences that his favourite striker in the world is Crespo.
The two men shared a fruitful alliance at Parma, despite the Argentine’s dismal start to his Serie A career.
“It would be just wonderful to work with him again,” noted the striker. “Only Ancelotti and I know what strains it took to get me on form during those first two seasons at Parma. I owe him a debt of gratitude for that.”
He has gone on to success at Lazio and Inter, but has struggled to settle in at Chelsea and is expected to leave this summer in an £11m deal.
The one problem could be the fact that Milan already have Andriy Shevchenko, Pippo Inzaghi and Jon Dahl Tomasson at their disposal.
“There are absolutely no issues here,” assured Crespo. “I am not a kid and know the rules of the changing room. I’d even be willing to take a pay-cut if it meant joining the Rossoneri.”
He is already familiar with the San Siro due to his time here with Inter, but claims he would be honoured to join their arch-rivals.
“If it is true that Chelsea no longer want me,” he continued, “then my first choice would be Milan.”
Chelsea look set to sell several of their top stars this summer and both Inter and Juventus are keeping a close eye on Frank Lampard’s situation.
“The way things stand,” his agent Steve Kutner is reported as saying, “Frank doesn’t feel that he will be able to stay.”
The England midfielder wants wages that match those of teammates Crespo and Juan Sebastian Veron – said to be in the region of £90,000 per week – but contract talks have reportedly broken down.
