AC Milan: new rumours about Kakà; message from Santon. Juventus: plan for Pazzini
Signing a defender and a forward to replace Thiago Silva and Zlatan Ibrahimovic is certainly AC Milan's priority, but the Lombard club must also regain its fans'confidence, and signing a player like their former star Ricardo Kaka would be an important message. As reported by AS, the 30 year old has met today his coach Jose Mourinho and it seems that the Brazil national is no longer part of Real Madrid's plans. Moreover, as reported by the Brazilian press, the former Golden Globe has refused an offer made by Corinthians, probably because he's waiting for a call from an European club: will it be Milan? In any case, the rossoneri really need to enforce their defensive line, and, interviewed by Kicker, one of their target, Stuttgart 25 year old Serdar Tasci, has denied any contact with the rossoneri. On the contrary, Newcastle fullback Davide Santon, has declared to calciomercato.com, that, even if he is happy to be considered not for sale by his actual club, he considers AC Milan as an agreable destination.
Still seeking a new striker, Juventus are keen on Arsenal 28 year old Robin Van Persie, and, as reported by Sky Sport, to let the Dutchman leave the English club require 20 million pounds. The same media substains that the bianconeri and Inter Milan are thinking about a swap involving 29 year old Fabio Quagliarella and 27 year old Giampaolo Pazzini. Regarding the midfield, the agent of Brescia 21 year old Omar El Kaddouri has declared to radiocalciomercato.it that, although Juve represents his client's favourite destination, the Belgian player could still move to Parma. Regarding the possible departures, 29 year old midfielder Michele Pazienza could still move to Torino, while 27 year old winger Milos Krasic seems intentionned to refuse an offer made by Fenerbahçe.
