Transfer market, final without fireworks: Balotelli the biggest blow of January

No twist in the last day – A session under the sign of Balotelli and in extremis Milan buys the Polish Salamon from Brescia – For Inter the most promising (albeit expensive) purchase was that of the young Croatian midfielder Kovacic : in the last minute the Nerazzurri also took on Carrizo and Laxalt – Juve stopped at Anelka

Transfer market, final without fireworks: Balotelli the biggest blow of January

Final without a bang. The last day of the market it went on in its usual frenzy, but last-minute shots went unexploded; on the other hand, the emotions of the previous days were not easily repeatable. He smiles anyway Milan, still in full Balotelli-mania, who bought the 21-year-old from Brescia Bartosz salamon. The young Pole, who belongs to Mino Raiola's team, was born as a midfielder, but this year he exploded under the orders of Heat, which turned him into a centre-back. “I dream of immediately becoming an important element for Milan, I am inspired by defenders who know how to play with their feet – the boy declared very excited after signing the contract. – I want to know Balo and El Shaarawy, I haven't chosen the shirt number yet." Nothing to do instead for Kasami, also proposed by Raiola, that the Rossoneri have politely refused.

Important day at home Inter, primarily for the landing of Mateo Kovacic. The Croatian arrived in Milan in the morning and underwent the usual procedure: medical checks and signing of the contract. “It's a dream come true, I don't know how to explain it – he exclaimed happily. – I can only say that I found myself in an incredible reality and I will do everything to make the Nerazzurri fans happy. I am happy to be part of a team like this and I hope to stay here for a long time. I like playing halfback, I hope to give my contribution to win the championship." Same procedure also for Schelotto and Kuzmanovic. "I'm happy to have arrived at Inter, the most important team in the world" the words of the Argentine full-back, "I'm so happy, I want to take the field immediately" those of the Serbian midfielder. Also solved the problem of the deputy Handanovic: it will be Reed, which comes from Lazio for 250 thousand euros. The nerazzurri then concluded the purchase of Laxalt, stolen in extremis from the biancocelesti. However, the young Uruguayan midfielder will only be registered starting from 1 July. An important campaign, which enhances the President Moratti, returned to talk about the Scudetto: “I appreciate it a lot Kovacic because he is a special player, complete from all points of view, elegant and interesting to see. Schelotto perfectly represents what Stramaccioni wanted on the wing; Kuzmanovich he has experience but is also young. Third place closest? No, let's aim for the first…”.

No last minute shot instead for the Juventus, if we exclude the young German wing Hassan Pepic (20 years), which however will join the Primavera. Marotta tried up to the last minute to give Conte a striker, who in the end, however, will have to be satisfied (so to speak…) with Anelka. The Juventus CEO attempted the coup Belfodil, But the Parma closed ranks with a monstrous request of 20 million. Juve then offered Quagliarella in exchange, Ghirardi relaunched asking for a balance of 13 million. At these figures, the deal obviously didn't take off, but who knows if we can talk about it again for next season. Where, almost certainly, Andrea Poli will wear the black and white shirt. The agreement with Sampdoria for co-ownership had already been reached yesterday afternoon, but the extremely tight deadlines prevented it from being formalised. The midfielder will thus remain a GenoVa until June, then will aggregate orders from Antonio Conte. Finally nothing to do for Lysander Lopez: Lyon has not lowered its demands (8 million for the purchase), Juve has not raised its offer (4,5 million). For the top player, therefore, please come back in July.
