AC Milan: Zapata first target in January

20:32 del 17 novembre


Carlo Ancelotti faces an endless series of problems in defense: the long unavailability of Nesta, the physical problems (and age) of Maldini, without forgetting the fragility of Senderos and Kaladze, often struggling with small ailments. All this has led the leadership to rethink possible investments in the market.

The most serious track is the one that leads to the Colombian of Udinese, Cristian Zapata, longtime in the viewfinder of the Rossoneri. Only a year ago, they demanded 15 million euros, a figure considered too high by the club’s leadership. But now that the player is effectively a second choice of Pasquale Marino, it is very likely that the player can leave Udine for 8 million, a figure definitely affordable for Adriano Galliani.

Contact between the parties could come in the following days: It is possible that Zapata could arrive at Milanello in early January.

Vargas awaits Viola revival

Tuesday 18 November, 2008

Juan Manuel Vargas has been a flop since joining Fiorentina, but is sure his true worth can emerge if the club and fans maintain their faith in him.

The full-back was one of the big summer signings when he moved from Catania, but has made some costly errors, most notably in the Champions League.

“I am 25 years old and every day I work hard to improve myself,” said the Peruvian international.

“At this moment I am calm, relaxed and humble. The criticism I have received will help me to improve and over time I know it will get better.

“I am certainly not 100 per cent yet because I am coming off an injury, but by training regularly I will return to match fitness.”

The Viola battled to get Vargas when he was of interest to several top clubs around Europe and he is confident he’ll soon repay them.

“I am still the same person as the day I arrived here, although naturally I still need time to adapt to this city. Fiorentina are everything for me at the moment.”

The club needs a boost after the disappointing 1-0 defeat away to relegation battlers Cagliari on Sunday.

The next Serie A round has an even tougher task, welcoming direct competitors for Champions League and UEFA Cup spots Udinese.

“We have already started preparing for Saturday’s game. We are training hard and every week the Coach watches and picks those who will start on Sunday. We have the utmost respect for his choices.”
