Inisghtful comment from Galliani who is about to sell Ibrahimovic and THiago Silva:
Galliani was then asked if Milan would be bringing in any more 'top players' before the start of the new Serie A season, and the Monza native admitted that the Serie A giants are no longer in a position to sign the game's most high-profile performers.
"I do not know what you mean by top players, maybe players who are expensive," he queried. "I repeat, we are too far behind the Spanish. I said that a few years ago. You need to forget about big names.
"Once upon a time great players arrived in Italy, but that is no longer possible. Certain players with big transfer fees and big salaries are no longer available to Milan, Inter or Juventus.
"Twenty years ago we made more money than Real Madrid and Barcelona; now we net half of what they generate in revenue.
"Italy has changed as a country and the economy has changed. The problem is not Milan, but all of Italian football.
