when did you guys realize that he was going to spend his whole career with Milan?

Bruh, the only way to follow MIlan back then was a monthly footy mag, and their matches on TV.

you didnt have any of this extra bullshit going on.

Off topic for the people who watched Maldinis career from the beginning :

when did you guys realize that he was going to spend his whole career with Milan?

they would know better but if i were to guess, when it didn't take 2 months for him to sign an extension. :D

Not a wow video, but he was really good in that match. Would fit perfectly in montellas system.

Kalinic is you typical Serie A overhyped, but actually quite mediocre striker in the mold of Matri, Pazzini, and Gillardino. He is also 29. Buying him for any price would be a mistake, buying him for 30m would be a crime at the lvl of 20m Fodderacci

They find it hard to spend 25M for 31 years biglia (arguably the best dmc in serie a), but not for 29 years old mediocre striker, that having trouble to make it top 10 in serie a :fp:

:thumbsup: + I don't see even in heaven how Silva can be ">>>>" Bacca. We don't need more midtable players.

Fassone is slow playing the Belotti saga like a king.
Throw out an offer that, in any logical universe gets accepted... But won't.
You get in the players ear, you show an exciting project... Player day by day grows itchy about joining the team he loves... Speaks to Milan players about it... Gets more and more hyped...

He eventually tells his agent "make this happen"... They go to Cairo and tell them "we want out"

Fassone comes back... raised offer. a player or 2... gets done...

will take a few weeks tho

i would rather get Dzeko than Kalinic.

And why would Dzeko agree to join Milan to fight for a spot w/ Andre Silva? Would Andre Silva accept Milan if he'd knew he has to fight for a spot with the capocannoniere?

One thing about Kalinic - China wanted him. He has resale value.

Fuck UEFA

Thanks :thumbsup:

Atalanta now want €30m for Andrea Conti. Milan are not budging from €20m + bonuses.

Can we add in a fodder?

Milan, goodbye Belotti, goes with the United Morata.


Today's edition of La Stampa , June 10, 2017, is safe, Andrea Belotti will soon become a new player of Manchester United. Jose Mourinho, coach of the Red Devils, had set its sights on three forwards (to pick two) who will have the task of replacing Ibrahimovic and Rooney. The market block of Atletico Madrid, with Griezmann now unsellable, has tipped the choice on the two attackers also followed by Milan: Belotti and Morata.
The 150 million budget available will be divided almost equally for the two players: Morata will be paid around 70 million euros, and already in the next week the Spaniard will be in Manchester for a medical.
The remaining 80 million will be turned into the coffers of Turin for the Gallo Belotti. It is true that there is a clause of 100 million Cairo but much prefers the idea of giving Belotti abroad, and not in Italy, and the United relations are excellent. The road is downhill, and after marriage del Gallo (June 15) will start officially the moves of the English club.
Milan stands by and watches, with Cairo, which has returned to you, with some annoyance, the offer AC Milan 45 million plus the tag of two players

Belotti would stupid as shit to go to United.

Keita Balde Diao is reportedly rejecting all offers except Juventus, even though Lazio agreed terms with Milan, so the Rossoneri turn to Nicola Sansone.

We need to start somewhere

Sansone. :thumbsup:

Keita's Ladri hard-on is also pissing me off. Let's go with Forsberg.

Andrea Conti's agent has again come out and hit out at Atalanta's president Percassi regarding the meeting and agreement with Milan.

Agent insists #Atalanta "promised" to let Andrea Conti leave, knew of #ACMilan meeting

Found the bitch.

BREAKING: Davide Di Gennaro to Milan is a done deal. He will take his medical on Monday. Milan will pay Cagliari €5M

What?

#Milan for #Kalinic it's serious: 30 million could accommodate #Fiorentina

DB9JAtnXgAAdCDB.jpg

Milan are interested in Nikola Kalinic and contacted his agent in the past days. €30m could be enough to sign him. [Sky]

Can we start panicking? :fp:

Di Stefano (SKY): There was a meeting between Kalinic's agent and Milan. His arrival would not rule out another striker, like Porto's Silva.

According to @DiMarzio, Milan could use the money intended for Belotti to bring in BOTH Kalinic and Andre Silva. https://t.co/8DI2yiQ9z3

Belotti > Kalinic + Andre Silva

Also paying 30M+ for a sub is much worse than overpaying for Biglia and Conti. Who are guaranteed starters.

Sky's @AAlciato: "Belotti is not only thinking about the national team at Coverciano, but is talking a lot about Milan with his teammates." https://t.co/HjktasqCKH

He wants but Cairo is being a bish.

@footballitalia
Emil Forsberg hints he'd accept #ACMilan ahead of #UCL clubs http://www.football-italia.net/103923/forsberg-milan-project-interesting … #AFC #LFC #RBL #ASRoma

Get him. :thumbsup:

Atalanta president Percassi: "We value Conti at €30m. If Milan are ready to pay that, then we can talk."

Like I said above. Add 1-2 fodders.

Emil Forsberg is an amazing player, but I don't think he'd do well in Italy.

Why is that? I've not seen too much of him, his stats look amazing + he looks good on YT (I know I know :D)

Swedish posters on here seem to be against signing him, which is a worrying sign

We need a killer like Keita IMO

Edited.

And the actual reason his agent is in Milan, to start with.
He's going to China.

If it means we're getting Belotti, let him go to China now.

But, one question

Why exactly would you be against Andre Silva + Kalinic? I remember you saying you'd be fine w/ Andre Silva, wouldn't it make more sense to bring in a good #2 to avoid putting too much pressure on such a young player? Especially since we'd pretty much fund the move by selling Bacca.

why do people ignore the fact that keita was nothing but average as a winger until he moved as a striker and scored vs midtable teams for 3 months?

some people noticed it, but most haven't caught on with this fact.

I'd much rather sign Belotti for 70M + fodder and a free Ibra then the Kalinic and Silva combo for 65M+


Belotti + 6 months of Ibra + Lapadula > Kalinic + Andre Silva + Lapadula

Like imagine if A.Silva flops at Serie A? We'd only have Kalinic as starter material, and that'd be worrying.

they keep saying that the clause is valid only outside Italy

for Italian clubs maybe Belotti can have his say

Last I heard their President were insisting on 100 mil euro even for teams in Italy. even though his clause is for foreign club only. Di marzio mentioned they wanted 70 mil plus 2 players.

if Belotti really want to come here he should start to talk open about a milan move publicly and also tell Torino about his desire and force a move away.

He wasn't average as a winger - he was inconsistent . Hes what, 21 now? He wasn't starting in & out before and has exploded recently. I do agree that hes better & more suited as an SS, why wouldn't we play him closer to the CF at Milan? Rest assured Mirabelli knows how to get the most out of Keita... I remember someone saying he sees him becoming a CF in the future in the mould of Aubameyang. He's definitely discussed that with Montella

Idk why people think he'd play on the left only at Milan

Forsberg > Keita

How's this even a discussion? I've seen him play with the NT and he's a beast. He'll be great under Montella's system with Bona and RR behind him.

Why would he accept if he has to fight for a spot with Kalinic? Perhaps we are going for a two striker formation, keep in mind it was rumoured Mirabelli see's Keita as a striker, and he is our main priority.

And how do you know he has resale value, who knows what will happen after a year.

Forsberg is definitely better than Keita, and his personality fits Milan 100x times more than Keita. He'd fit right into here.

Forsberg - Belotti - Suso

holy fuck, imagine Rodriguez, Conti, Forsberg and Suso feeding Belotti. There is not a chance Belotti would fail here.

Neither sound appealing tbh.

- Belotti? He is max 40 million. Has an upside and brings a lot to the table however overvalued.

- Ibra? He is done. Will not be ready until January and expect Raiola get 10+ million per year for Ibra.

- Bacca? He could stay but he is not what this team needs.

- Kalinic? Much better than Bacca overall. Bacca only peg against Kalinic are his goal scoring skills.

- Silva? Know nothing of him. He could be a James (at his prime) or a Iturbe.
