Yea, I'd still rather get someone like Perin with an older experienced keeper to fill in in case of the injury, I actually think Pepe Reina for free would be good.

Szczesny> perin + reina

UEFA statement: "The investigation chamber of the independent UEFA Club Financial Control Body analyzed the request presented by AC Milan regarding the voluntary agreement required by the Financial Fair Play (FFP)."

"After a careful examination of all the documentation represented and explanations provided, the Chamber decided to conclude the voluntary agreement with AC Milan."

"In particular the Chamber has considered that, to date, there are still some uncertainties regarding the refinancing of the debt that must be repaid by October 2018 and the financial guarantees provided by the major shareholders."

"AC Milan will continue to be subject to the current monitoring and the situation will be assessed again in the first months of 2018."

"will be assessed again in 2018". Sounds like this UEFA stuff is all BS. They won't do anything like they do nothing to other big clubs around Europe.

Dybala for Donnarumma straight swap.

I think they do impose some sanctions regarding transfers (not to PSG).

ie. Roma having to make 50 million by June 30th, so they sold Salah to Liverpool to meet that. Inter only being able to spend what they receive from transfer sales, etc. I don't know how non-Italian clubs were affected though.

And I believe there are also some rules about not being able to play new players you but in a European competition. I think Inter had to drop 4 of their new buys from Europa League.

But Roma spent more than the 50m they sold Salah for. Inter still spent around 70m or so this summer on Skriniar, Valero, Vecino, Dalbert this summer and sold none of their top players. And they are in the same situation. It's all BS.

Fuck UEFA. Complete joke of an organization. If PSG wins the UCL this year they should just disband.

Nobody questions the legitimacy of the PSG owners. PSG are a super power in the game now, unlike us. There's not enough clarity in regards to who actually owns the club and we're still nowhere near the UCL.

Not being in a position of strength means we will be punished by UEFA in time.

Does this mean one of the title match-ups in this thread is over in page 2? :|

[necromancer]

Fassone right back at it..

BREAKING: #ACMilan CEO Marco Fassone confirms a 'settlement agreement' is close after no voluntary agreement could be reached. More to follow... #UEFA

A 335 billion global empire is legit when it comes to QSI. They have the reserves to make UEFA look the other way.

Li was supposed to own phosphorus mines. Fassone presented a fantasy document twice to UEFA. It should be of no surprise that UEFA would reject the voluntary agreement.

Li is just a face. I don't think he is the real owner or guy running the show. Everyone knew going in he didn't have the resources to run the club long term and he wouldn't have spent 200m if that was the case if he was dealing with a massive loan. The real owner is still a mystery and for some reason can't be identified. Li may be involved in some form, but I think there are still higher ups above him.

That was expected.
Fassone said we can still do settlement agreement with them.

That's the point, Li the figure head can disappear like the phosphorus mines. We are propped up with shady loans. The mystery surrounding who actually owns the club will always be a negative until the truth is revealed.

I remember reading Li isn't even among the 400 richest people in China. So there must be some super rich guy or group in the background that was willing to pay such a high price for Milan. Maybe the Chinese government owns the club.
