Inter: no from Corinthians for Paulinho. AC Milan: many competitors for Chiriches
Inter Milan are trying to sign a midfielder for the second part of the season, and their man targets is Corinthians 24 year old midfielder Paulinho, but the Timao president Mario Gobbi has explained to the Brazilian press that the player’s contract has been extended because the club’s will is to keep the Brazil national. Another nerazzuri’s target doesn’t seem intended to move to Milan: FC Porto 27 year old Uruguayan right back Jorge Fucile Perdomo will in fact probably move to Santos. As reported yesterday, the Lombard club are interested in 18 year old Polish striker Akadiusz Milik, whose contract with Gornik Zabrze will expire in June 2016: according to TalkSport, the “new Lewandowski” could move to Everton or Aston Villa.
As reported by La Gazzetta dello Sport, the future of AC Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri remains uncertain, but Chief Executive Adriano Galliani has agreed with the 45 year old that the team doesn’t have many alternatives regarding the midfield, where many changes are expected: 28 year old Mathieu Flamini and 27 year old Bakaye Traoré, but also 25 year old Kevin-Prince Boateng and 27 year old Nigel De Jong seem intended to leave. Also the rossoneri’s defense needs important changes, but one of their main targets, Montpellier 23 year old Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa could extend his deal with the Ligue 1 champs, actually expiring in June 2013. Moreover, interviewed by calciomercato.com, Viktor Becali, agent of Steaua Bucharest 22 year old Vlad Chiriches, has confirmed that Milan are observing his client, but also Inter and Zentit St. Petersburg are interested in the Romania national.
