The Rossoneri chief still hoping to sign the Manchester City striker, and puts talks of Maxi Lopez on hold
A.C Milan Vice-President, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Carlos-c8346 Tevez.
Despite getting two offers rejected by Manchester City, A.C Milan are still in the race to sign the Argentine international. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567 Milan and Paris Germain have also tried their lucks with a bid, but they have also not met the expectations
of the Blues.
Tevez has himself confirmed that he only wants to join the Rossoneri, and will not entertain offers from other clubs. Galliani is pleased with the former Manchester United striker’s words, but he insists that the probability of
a deal taking place entirely depends on Manchester City.
“His words are good news. The closing of the deal, however, depends neither on us nor on him, but on City. The will of Milan and the player are clear, but not enough.”
The Rossoneri chief insisted that Milan cannot sign both Tevez and Lopez, as they will not meet the tactical needs of the club. However, he insisted that if any striker joins Milan this January, he would be an Argentine.
“In principle too, both [Lopez and Tevez] cannot join. In fact, I would say that it is not possible. A striker will come, he will be Argentinean and his name will end with a ‘z’.”
On the other hand, Catania have recently rejected a bid for Lopez from English Premier League side, Fulham. The agent of the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 star insisted that his client is willing to wait until the last day of January transfer
window to complete a dream move to San Siro.
“We still have to wait for a bit more. The player is happy, even if we’ll have to see how the Tevez situation evolves. Will the move collapse if http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Carlitos-c8336 arrives? You’ll have to ask Galliani even if he’s already responded on that.”
Milan currently have six first-team strikers in their squad. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Antonio-Cassano-c6302 has started light training after recovering from heart surgery recently.
