The former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lazio-c39775 defender concluded that there are no substitutes for Ibrahimovic and Thiago Silva; however, he feels the Rossoneri will remain competitive.
Milan were extremely close to selling their star defender, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Thiago-Silva-c34903, off to PSG after the Parc de Princes outfit offered to splash out 47 million Euros for the services of the Brazilian. The deal was about done; however, after immense pressure from the
fans, Silvio Berlusconi decided against the sale of their defender.
However, amid growing financial distress and the heavy leverage the club are embroiled in, the club were forced to part ways with two of their most prized assets, with Paris SG offering 60 million Euros for the services of Thiago Silva and of that of Zlatan
Ibrahimovic. The Swede was the top scorer in the Serie A, and won the Golden Boot courtesy of his 28 goals in the Lega for the San Siro outfit.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alessandro-Nesta-c4735 still considers himself to be connected with the group, despite his departure from the Milanello outfit to North American shores, where he has opted to continue his footballing career in the MLS. Nesta has joined the Canadian outfit, Montreal
Impact, but still follows the news surrounding his former employers.
He went on to comment that players of the calibre of Thiago Silva and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Zlatan-Ibrahimovic-c38029 should not be placed for sale, and the club will feel the impact of their losses in the upcoming season. He was quoted to have said:
"I still feel very attached to the group. The two sales are a great loss. They are players who should not be on the market.”
The former Biancocelesti stopper went on to comment on the possibilities at the disposal of the club following the sales of their highly prolific stars. He mentioned that their sales could be used to fund a couple of players which would make the team reach
a good competitive level to compete in the Lega and in the Champions League.
The 36-year-old went on to state that there were no substitutes for quality players like Ibrahimovic and Silva and mentioned:
"You can't say 'I'll sell Silva and buy a similar player'. There are no similar players around, only worse ones. The same with Ibra.”
The San Siro outfit have been linked to several players like Andy Carrol from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Carlos-c8346 Tevez to fill in the void left by Ibrahimovic.
