He was stellar in the Milan friendly, he faced no strikers though, but looked completely classy. Mention this game because it was the 2n or 3rd time I had seen him (last time being ages ago in some youth NT game).

He will leave for sure, as Alen clarified amply enough, he is considered 4th choice in both CB or RB. Though I its more likely he will go to Milan, and we will not go after him or another CB.

Again, if we do happen to sign Ivanovic (which I'm for), the Knezevic transfer will become even more unnecessary. And our transfer campaign will become even more strange.

The board wanted to have 5 CBs this season, not to repeat the situation from the last one. Knezevic was meant to be a 5th choice after Chiellini, Mellberg, Legrottaglie and Andrade, so Ivanovic may be a replacement for injured again Portuguese and therefore Knezevic will be still a 5th choice as it was planned.

Grygera can play centerback as well. Too many centerbacks. We don't need six of them.

I think that if we get Ivanovic we'll sell Zebina. Juve would play him at RB. I remember some Juve member(don't know if it was Pessotto or Ferrara) who said some weeks ago we were gonna buy a RB.

Knezevic was bought when Andrade was fit. Now that Andrade got injured another CB is needed.
No, he was bought when Andrade was still injured and nobody knew his condition.

Ivanovic is a centerback who can play right-back...
