As reported by Tuttosport, the mission of AC Milan Chief Executive Adriano Galliani in the United States has started: the Italian will try to obtain from Real Madrid president Florentino Perez both 30 year old forward Ricardo Kaka and 27 year old midfielder Lassana Diarra. Galliani will try to offer 4 million euros for the Frenchman, and is still unknown if Perez will accept such amount. The rossoneri are also seeking a defender and a striker, and their task seems always harder to accomplish: Olympique Marseille president Vincent Labrune has in fact declared that 22 year old center back Nicolas NKoulou is not for sale, and that this will be his club's definitive position about the Cameroon national; regarding the offensive line, in the last days the agent of Manchester United 31 year old Dimitar Berbatov has confirmed to calciomercato.com that a transfer to the Lombard club could be a concrete option, but, according to Itasportpress, also Zenit St. Petersburg are keen on the Bulgaria national.

Sao Paulo president Jesus Lopes has declared that it will be Lucas Moura to decide his next destination, but it seems clear that Paris Saint-Germain have definitely overtaken both Manchester United and Inter Milan in the hunt for the 19 year old attacking midfielder. The nerazzurri, in any case, were ready for this possibility, and already have an alternative plan: the Lombard club could swoop on another attacking midfielder as Bologna 21 year old Gaston Ramirez, valued at least 15 million euros, or, on the contrary, try to sign a forward without spending too much money, with a swap with AS Rome or Juventus involving Pablo Daniel Osvaldo or Fabio Quagliarella, and invest an important amount on a defender that will be able to replace both 30 year old right back Maicon or 25 year old center back Andrea Ranocchia, like, for example, Juventus 25 year old Martin Caceres.
