AC Milan was given the go ahead to start discussions with Drogba’s representatives about a future move to Italian football tables giant today, ahead of next seasons football fixtures. Adriano Galliani, the clubs vice president was understood to be delighted by this news, however the one time AC Milan now Chelsea reserve football goals scorer Shevchenko has not been allowed to follow suit and discuss a possible move to the Italian team.
Drogba has had an impressive career to date, but came under a lot of bad press during his time at Chelsea for his play acting and diving during premiership football fixtures. His football goals record has been impressive however and he has been regarded as one of Chelsea’s most valuable players in the last few seasons. The possible end of Drogba’s time at Chelsea would not have been helped by events in Moscow’s football result, in which they lost the Champions League to Manchester United, and in the Premiership on the final day of this seasons football fixtures.
Milan fans are likely to be gutted that they are not allowed to open negotiations with former player Andriy Shevchenko. The player completed a thirty million pound move to Chelsea a couple of seasons back, but has so far failed to excel for Chelsea during this seasons football tables. A lot of people in the media believe that Chelsea would never let Shevchenko go, simply because his market value is only a small percentage of that they paid for him, and by doing so would be a blow to their pride.
Milan has also been linked to another Premiership star – Emmanuel Adebayor although Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has categorically stated that the Togo striker is not for sale. As well as a possible move by Barcelona striker Eto to Milan, there is no short supply of activity in the transfer market. AC Milan clearly feels that by strengthening in the striking positions, they will be able to compete domestically and in Europe.
Other news in the transfer market see Arsenal Midfield maestro Cesc Fabregas linked to a move to Real Madrid. Although the midfielder has constantly stated that he is content with life in England, the speculation does not appear to be vanishing. With recent news that a Ronaldo move to Real Madrid imminent, it is unlikely that they will be able to fund the purchase of Fabregas on top of that of the Manchester United playmaker.
