Ac Milan keep on being extremely active on the transfer market: as reported earlier today, the rossoneri are ready to swoop on Shanghai Shenhua 34 year old striker Didier Drogba; Sky Sport has in fact confirmed the news item anticipated by calciomercato.com, i.e. that the Lombard club have offerd to the former Chelsea player a one-and-a-half year deal but will sign him only if he will terminate his contract with the Chinese club. But the Ivory Coast international is not the only forward tracked by Milan: the rossoneri, in fact, despite the declarations released by their executives, could still have a chance to obtain Manchester City 22 year old Mario Balotelli, thanks to his agent Mino Raiola, who is actually meeting the Lombard club’s Chief Executive Adriano Galliani. A confirmation arrives also from the words of Claudio Pasqualin, agent of 26 year old right back Ignazio Abate: Pasqualin has in fact declared to Personal Press that although president Silvio Berlusconi stated that the Italy International will stay, the situation could change if Zenit St. Petersburg would increase their offer, as Milan need money to sign Balotelli.

Also Juventus are trying to speed-up the negotiations to obtain a new forward, and, according to Sky Sport, could finally obtain on loan with right to buy from Lyon 29 year old Lisandro Lopez. Meanwhile, as reported by the Corriere dello Sport, the bianconeri have obtained from LDU Quito 18 year old attacking midfielder José Francisco Cevallos Jr.
