Milan inflames the transfer market: here are Alex and Menez

Milan inflames the market. The Rossoneri, officially still without a coach (but only for bureaucratic reasons, Pippo Inzaghi is already 100% operational), are already moving to strengthen the team. The first hits of the 2014/15 season are called Alex and Menez, both from Paris, both on a free transfer. In spite of the irony about the modus operandi of Galliani, a real specialist in "end of contract", business is promising. The defender, who will be 32 on June 17th, was one of Blanc's regular players in the triumphal run that gave PSG the French title, relegating a top player like Marquinhos to the bench. He will sign a two-year contract, one less than Menez. The French full-back comes from a season that was decidedly more stingy with satisfactions, yet his age (just turned 27) and technical qualities (as they remember him well in Rome) lead to positive thoughts. From Udine then come rumors of a rather concrete interest in Gabriel Silva, the 23-year-old Brazilian left-back who would have been expressly requested by Inzaghi. In Friuli, where Stramaccioni was made official as the new coach yesterday, they value him at 8 million but Galliani hopes to reduce the price by inserting a technical counterpart (Petagna or Cristante, even if the latter could stay to replace Montolivo). A lot of incoming market, but also outgoing. The new course inzaghiano it should produce a change of form marked by a 4-3-3 in which Balotelli could even be too many. It is no coincidence that Turkey speaks of a strong interest from Galatasaray, obviously on the mandate of Roberto Mancini. The offer from Istanbul is 20 million plus 7 in bonuses, but watch out for Wenger's Arsenal, which in addition to the pounds, would put the Premier League's most competitive side on the table. Milan could thus turn to Mandzukic of Bayern, relegated to the margins by the purchase of Lewandowsky, or confirm Pazzini and Matri, waiting to understand what will happen with Honda, Kakà and Robinho, all potentially on the market.

An important day also for Inter, who could finally kick off the new course signed by Thohir. Yes, because if there are no hitches, the money will arrive from Goldman Sachs, Unicredit and other international funds, 200 million to be immediately transferred to the banks to release Moratti's bank guarantees (80 million) and pay off a few various arrears. But the work alongside the tycoon won't stop there: to make Inter great again, you need other resources to put on the market, perhaps to be found in the friendly shores of Hong Kong and Singapore. In the meantime, the objectives have already been identified: Schmelzer from Borussia Dortmund is named for the defense (the Germans like Alvarez) and Ricardo Rodriguez from Wolfsburg, while for the midfield they like Behrami (Taider proposed as a counterpart, De Laurentiis niche), Xhaka from Borussia Moenchengladbach (cost 10 million) and Sandro from Tottenham, in addition to the aforementioned (and unattainable) Luiz Gustavo (Wolfsburg) and Mario Suarez (Atletico Madrid). For the attack, keep an eye on Osvaldo, returning to Southampton after his loan to Juventus. The price is prohibitive (18 million, which is why Marotta let the buy-out option lapse), but the ways of the transfer market, as we know, can be endless.

Turin is also waiting for news from Madrid, after Florentino Perez froze everyone with an interview on Spanish radio. “I'm a friend of the managers of Juventus – explained the current European champion president. – They didn't ask me anything about Morata and I add that the chances of seeing him in black and white are zero out of a hundred ". Closing words, yet from Madrid they let it be known that the Spaniard no longer wants to act as a reserve for Benzema, which is why Juve waits and hopes. Meanwhile, he collects other statements from Perez, these are decidedly more pleasant. "Pogba will not come to us" continued the Real Madrid number one, without ever mentioning Vidal. He is the real market target of the Spaniards…
