AC Milan have reportedly agreed deals for bringing Andriy Shevchenko & Ronaldinho to the San Siro in the summer.
“Ronaldinho and (Chelsea striker Andriy) Shevchenko are 180 per cent Milan players,” Vice-President Adriano Galliani told the press.
Reports in Spain confirm that an 'outline agreement' has been reached for a $47m deal with Barcelona.
I can’t help but feel that if Milan were to spend the reported $47 million on bringing Ronaldinho to the Guiseppe Meazza it would be a mistake.
The Brazilian is well past his best and sure AC will probably recoup the money expended on the signing through shirt sales but football wise he can’t pull the strings as often or with the same vigor as he was once able to.
The return of Shevchenko to AC Milan would obviously be heralded as the return of the prodigal son and no matter how he gets on I can’t see anything less than the Milan fan loving him just as much as they always have done. Plus it is a nailed on certainty that they will have made a tidy profit on his initial departure.
