Telelombardia commentator Cristiano Ruiu claims Milan have already agreed a deal with Carlos Tevez and Manchester City. Ruiu, who follows the Rossoneri closely, also believes that the Maxi Lopez rumours are just a diversion.

“This is a great opportunity for Milan and Adriano Galliani won’t miss it. I believe Tevez is ours and the deal is done already,” he told CM.com.

“One month ago I spoke to Mino Raiola who told me he was in South America to persuade Carlitos. The Milan coaching staff has already prepared a personalized training schedule for him to use in Dubai. A bit like they did with Antonio Cassano last year.

“When Kia Joorabchian came to Milan, he had been given the permission by City. One way or another they will keep everybody happy,” added Ruiu.

“I also believe that the chat Adriano Galliani and Pietro Lo Monaco had was just a diversion. Actually, I think Galliani made them a favour in order to get Maxi Lopez’s name spinning around since Catania cannot sell him at the moment. But the first choice is Tevez,” concluded Ruiu.
