The news that no AC Milan fan would have ever wanted to know reached the newsrooms around 17.30 pm: Alexandre Pato is injured again. “AC Milan announces that during today's training session during a game dispute (with Boateng, ed), Alexandre Pato suffered a problem with his left adductor. Further medical checks will be carried out in the next few days to establish the extent of the damage".
Translated into simple words, the Brazilian stretched again and waiting to know exactly the recovery times, there is one certainty: he will not be able to return to the field at least until the September break. So no Milan-Sampdoria and Bologna-Milan, we'll see for the match against Atalanta. Luckily Pazzini is here, already scoring in his first training session yesterday, who at this point should be starting next Sunday.
Galliani ran for cover by calling his lifelong friend Preziosi, who will lend him (in the true sense of the word) the Brazilian Ze Eduardo, so far Genoa meteor (8 appearances 0 goals last season). Certainly not a name to make the hearts of the fans vibrate, but in an era of austerity (and what austerity!) you have to be satisfied. The attacker, who left Genoa yesterday evening, will train under Massimiliano Allegri's orders for a few days, after which Milan will decide whether to register him or send him back to sender.
The market will still offer some low-cost opportunities, Galliani will try to take advantage of them. From Spain they are sure that in the end the Rossoneri CEO will be able to bring home the prodigal son Kakà, even if Mourinho does not seem to think the same way (“We have never received any official offers for him,” said Special One yesterday afternoon). Milan are aware that Florentino Perez will not agree to the loan formula for tax reasons, but a favorable price (15 million) could be obtained with a multi-year payment. If that were the case then he could talk about it, provided that Kakà agrees to drastically reduce his salary (from 10 to 5 million).
On the other hand, the rumors that would like the Rossoneri club to be close to Carvalho are not confirmed: The 34-year-old Portuguese defender is very close to QPR, who have already reached an agreement with Real Madrid on a loan deal.
