Italy - Serie A

I can not believe anyone has not mentioned this but Kaka is very close to Real Madrid. Galliani has admitted there was an offer for Kaka from Real Madrid and Milan have accepted it.

Word is that the final decision will be made Monday, at least that's the most recent thing I've read.

Yeah, I would hate to be a Milan fan right now. The club is run by a bunch of morons. This transfer would be very bad for Serie A. Losing one of the leagues best players if not the best.

On the other hand being a Real Madrid fan I would be very happy if he arrived.

Exactly, rumour is that Milan is on the cusp of investment from the middle east and really if Berlusconi has little interest in football, which is highly possible as he seems far more interested in politics, then he should sell. Interesting though that Kaka, or his agent father, has come up with all these demands. Actions of a player who does not want to go and is trying to make the deal impossible?

I think that rumour about the Middle East consortium was false. Or it was for a mnority stake.

I do not think Kaka wants to leave. I just think it is Milan wants him to go because they need money.

Bernardo Corradi has signed with Udinese from Reggina. I miss seeing him celebrate in the Lazio jersey.

I was hoping Lotito would re-sign him, as he is still a useful striker - an Iaquinta or Toni type, and was absolutely free - which is Lotito's bread and butter.

We do not need him. He is hardly consistant and been on the wane for a long time.

Kaka will probably be announced as a Real Madrid player later today.

I can not wait!!!!

I wonder if they will also sign C.Ronaldo...once again Real is becoming Los Galacticos...

Milan on the verge of signing Edin Dzeko.

Suprising.

But he will be a great addition to Serie-A.

So Milan have started to invest the money haven't signed Cissokho.

Great player in my opinion, paid a high price for him, but in time, I reckon he will pay it back.

Excited to see a "new" Milan next season. It would work wonders for Serie A.

It's weird hoping for some star signings to the big clubs in the league, but it's good publicity and will improve the overall quality of the league. I know Diego could terrorize our backline, but I don't want calcio to be looked at as 2nd rate football.

Yeah Milan with Cisshoko, Thiago Silva and More than likely Dzeko, is pretty exciting. A few more additions and they will be pretty competitive.

Juve with Diego, Cannavaro, and more than likely D'Agostino, again are decent signings.

With 10 weeks of the market left, these two teams will only strengthen more, which is a welcome site for Serie-A.

We need to be competitive again in the Champions League.

I read a certain Luis Jimenez from Inter Milan will be off to West Ham on a season's loan soon.

Its a real shame how some players careers have gone down hill after leaving Lazio for money.

Yeah, but that was his fault. He wanted to leave for money and he sacrificed his career for that.

Maybe he never heard of "the grass is not always greener on the other side".

Exactly, Juve look like there coming out of rebuilding mode with a squad capable of doing some real damage, although a few more additions are still needed for them. It will certainly be interesting to see what Milan do, Cissokho is a very good start. Im interested to see who Fiorentina get though, they have been building for a while since their come back from financial ruin and with a bit more consistency could have been second last season.

Off course its his fault no one else to blame but himself. Although under Mancini he did get decent playing time.

The deal between Cissokho and Milan will most probably not happen as negotiations have completely fallen apart. This was reported in Portuguese media just minutes ago...

At the same time Eboue is being linked to rossoneri...

AMAZING. The reason to why the Cissokho deal failed was....his TEETH! He didnt pass his medical due to bad teeh. Have you ever heard anything like this before???

Shocking stuf...

Amazing how that deal is over, and how Milan will have to settle for some dud like Eboue.

I doubt it is only because of his teeth. Maybe they have found something deeper , related , I don't know , but it's strange...

It may as well be teeth, because all of your body is connected in one way or another, the same way a foot massage can relieve pain in your neck problems with teeth can result (apart from headaches) in other pains and infections.

But I'm doubtful that the milan medical staff can't handle this type of medical issue.

Bad teeth can lead to bad gums which can lead to a bad bloodstream which can lead to a bad heart.

A long chain I know, but bad teeth can potentially cause serious heart problems and maybe this is what they've found.

Still seems strange.

Juve in talks with Villareal for Guiseppe Rossi...

Potentially great Meracto for Juve.

Villa's putting a €40m ptrice tag on him though. Juve does need to get a little younger in their attack, though.
