Benfica look to keep Miccoli (2 Viewers)

[Zé Tahir]

Benfica have opened talks about making Fabrizio Miccoli's loan deal into a permanent move.

The Italian striker joined Benfica on loan from Juventus last summer after dropping down the pecking order at Stadio Delle Alpi.

Miccoli has impressed at Benfica during his loan stint and Ronald Koeman is keen to keep him at Estadio da Luz.

Juventus have admitted they are willing to sell Miccoli and Benfica are thought to be lining up a three-year deal for the diminutive hit-man.

Meanwhile, Miccoli has been included in the squad to face Liverpool in the UEFA Champions League this week after returning to action last weekend with the winner against Estrela Amadora.

good news

 

[Desmond]

Ah, another opportunity for a fantastic piece of business. The better Miccoli does the better it is for us; if he manages to knock Liverpool out tomorrow night his value will skyrocket - hopefully.

 

[Byrone]

yeah i hope he thrashes pool so we can get a shit load of cash for him!

 

[Geof]

Happy birthday Benfica!

It is a real shame, he really has the talent and he should have been the player to replace del piero in the team.

I'll never understand why Moggi and the coaches were so against Miccoli and even Maresca for that matter.

I hope that he plays well and then let`s get rid of him as fast as possible. I want to see him never ever wear our black and white jersey again.

 

[Hambon]

Everybody, gather 'round me
I got somethin' I wanna tell you

Miccoli never quite lived up to his hype. A great player at a small club, a small player at a great club. He might have been good enough to set the crowds on fire in Perugia, but he just didn't cut it at Juventus.

As for Maresca, something was off with him. I don't think Juve would have let go such a talented player, if he really was all we thought he was.

 

[tassard]

Why not to use him as an exchange for a defender???

 

[Mr. Gol]

Does Benfica have an option on him, if you how much will they have to pay?

I miss Enzo, soo Fvcking much.

I miss Enzo, soo Fvcking much.

But something wasn't right with the guy. I think there's something we don't know of. If there isn't, wouldn't he be in Turin right now?
