Ferrari's Milan Move Almost Done
Roma defender Matteo Ferrari is very close to agreeing to a deal to join AC Milan at the end of the season, according to reports in Italy.
Ferrari’s contract in the Eternal City runs out in the summer and negotiations to extend his deal have broken down.
Milan and Juventus have been fighting it out to sign the player on a Bosman transfer, and according to the Gazzetta dello Sport it is the Rossoneri who have won this race.
The European Champions have secured a verbal agreement with Ferrari, and details of the transfer which will go through at the end of the season, could become official by the middle of this week.
Ferrari is said to have agreed a four-year contract worth approximately €2.5m a season, an improvement of €1m on his current annual salary in Rome.
The 28-year-old signed for Roma from Parma in 2004, and was at the time regarded as a future regular in the Italy national team.
However this has never materialised and indeed Ferrari is currently not even first-choice at his club, as Philippe Mexes and Juan are Coach Luciano Spalletti’s preferred centre-back pairing.
Ferrari played in Saturday night’s 1-0 defeat to Juventus in Turin, and could keep his place for tomorrow’s Champions League clash with Real Madrid.
