R.I.P AC Milan

Legendary football club but it's the end for them now especially when berlusconi said the kaka' transfer will be used to 'balance the books' and not for new signings.

Earlier on Tuesday, Milan starlet Alexandre Pato hinted that his future could be at Stamford Bridge, alongside former coach Carlo Ancelotti. However, vice president Adriano Galliani has insisted the Brazilian striker will not be sold to Chelsea or anyone else.

"Pato is not for sale," he bluntly told Sky Sport Italia on Tuesday.

The Rossoneri recently sold star Brazilian player Kaka to Real Madrid and it would be a double blow if they also relinquished his compatriot.

The starlet was hugely influential with the Milanese giants this past season, finding the back of the net 15 times in Serie A. He is highly regarded as one of the biggest prospects on the planet at just 19 years of age and is already a member of Brazil's senior national side and is a part of their squad for the upcoming Confederations Cup.

Pato cost the Rossoneri approximately €22 million back in 2007, but the English and Italian press have suggested he would cost Chelsea more than double that amount now.

Milan keeps saying Pato is absolutely not for sale. But about a week ago Kaka was saying "for the last time i will not leave milan" so we'll see what happens when Roman starts flashing his cash at them

Great to hear that he is willing to talk

Unlike others, it seems we may have a bit of leverage here if he wants to come.

Now, do I think it happens? No but I would much prefer a situation where we have someone who who like to come to us even if the management says no. If the player goes to the management and wants out, it could happen

Milan need the money, we need to players. Its a good situation to be in.

AC Milan will very much not want to let Pato go. It will depend on 2 things. Firstly if Milan's financial situation is bad enough for them to need to sell, and secondly if the player can force them to let him leave.

Yep I agree with you. Seems like Milan wont repeat the same things just like what they had done to sheva. It will be great anyway to have him with us.

Would be an excellent acquisition.

Ultimately, the last word would be with Berlusconi. None of the Shevchenko, Kaka stuff happened without his sanctioning . Wrong in my book, Spanish and Italian leagues have regular government interference...

[Kez 2,727]

Sheva's a milan legend though

Agree with that. It was obvious, and now we have to compete with Real to have Ribery in. Not to forget they are in a hunting season (ronaldo, villa) to build Berlusconi's new Galaticos.
