Oddo Finally Joins Milan - Report
During the night, the Rossoneri and Lazio agreed on the transfer fee with which the full-back will become a Milan player after weeks of long negotiations.
Massimo Oddo is finally a Milan player according to reports coming from Italy. Various Italian media are reporting that the Lazio captain has finally signed for the Rossoneri after the negotiations had stalled in the past days, leading many to believe that Oddo would remain at Lazio.
However, during the night Adriano Galliani and Claudio Lotito finally reached an agreement of 8 million Euros plus youth player Pasquale Foggia.
Oddo was excluded from the squad for the match between Lazio and Milan, which was played last Sunday night, due to these negotiations, but with the deal being finally sealed, the former Lazio player will return to the club in which he started as a young player.
Both clubs are expected to officially announce the deal in the coming hours.
Serie A Team Of The Week: Round 20
Team of the week (3-4-3):
Toldo (Inter): Great performance by the Nerazzurri's reserve keeper against his former side, proving that he still is a very good goal tender despite his age and lack of playing time.
Mesto (Reggina): Excellent match by the Reggina defender who ran continuously throughout the entire match without stopping once.
Bianco (Cagliari): A very interesting Italian central defender, with Catania finding it tough to go past him in their attacks.
Materazzi (Inter): Defended almost perfectly against Fiorentina, showing that the World Cup performance was not just a flash in the pan.
Doni (Atalanta): Probably the player who has been most present in this list so far this season. Another great performance with another goal for the eternal Doni.
Marchini (Cagliari): Bought by the Rossoblu to substitute the injured Esposito. Nobody could have hoped that he would do it so well. Another player to keep an eye on for the upcoming transfer market.
Busce` (Empoli): One of the best players in this week, with a great game played by the Empoli midfielder who led his side to a precious win over Sampdoria.
Stankovic (Inter): Always a certainty in midfield. Offers a lot of quantity and quality and many times he even manages to score a (great) goal like he did against Fiorentina which paved the way for Inter’s win.
Adriano (Inter): Brilliant performance by the Brazilian who is definitely back to his best now and proving that the terrible 2006 is behind his back.
Toni (Fiorentina): Without Mutu, he tried to worry the Inter defence on his own. He managed to do so, but was unable to avoid the defeat for his side.
Rossi (Parma): What a player! Scored on his debut a wonder-goal, confirming all the good things that have been said about him. With such a player, Parma can now really hope of remaining in Serie A. Italy’s most brilliant hot prospect.
