Tacchinardi in Milan link Monday 13 March, 2006

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Milan are pondering a summer bid for Juventus-owned midfielder Alessio Tacchinardi, according to reports.

Stories in some sections of the Italian Press are suggesting that the former Italian international is wanted by boss Carlo Ancelotti.

The latter highly regarded the player during their time together at the Stadio Delle Alpi and he’s keen for them to link-up again.

Tacchinardi is currently in Spain with Villarreal but will be recalled to Turin in the summer as his Juventus contract doesn’t expire until 2008.

Should the move take place then it is likely to be a simple swap deal rather than one involving cash.

Juventus are believed to be presently keen on two Rossoneri stars in the form of goalkeeper Christian Abbiati and Massimo Ambrosini.

Abbiati is currently on loan at Juventus after he was brought in as a temporary replacement for the previously injured Gigi Buffon.

While Ambrosini is a midfield option who director general Luciano Moggi has attempted to lure on many occasions in the past.

Tacchinardi will be keen to impress Italian eyes should Inter make it through to face the Liga outfit in the last eight of the Champions League.

Inter take on Ajax at the San Siro on Tuesday following the 2-2 first leg draw during the Amsterdam Arena encounter.

Roma ponder Abbiati loan



Goalkeeper Christian Abbiati has moved a step closer to joining Roma for the 2006-07 season, according to reports.

Abbiati is currently on loan at Juventus from Milan but whispers in Italy on Tuesday suggest that he will sign for the Giallorossi at the end of this campaign.

Roma are evaluating the Abbiati path given the contract problems concerning current No 1 Alexander Doni.

The Brazilian’s present agreement expires in June and there is still some difference between his new wage demands and what the club are prepared to offer.

A split now seems to be on the cards with other speculation claiming that Doni is on the verge of joining Barcelona.

As a result, Abbiati is wanted by the capital club given the likelihood that he won’t be staying with the Rossoneri once he returns to the San Siro in the summer.

Milan are said to be prepared to offer him to Roma on loan in exchange for the loan of shot-stopper Ivan Pelizzoli, who has spent this term at Reggina.

Abbiati did return to his high levels of the past this term after he was snapped up by Juventus following an injury to Gigi Buffon.

Although Abbiati has now returned to the bench, he did greatly impress for the six months or so in which he was handed the first-choice gloves.

I wouldnt stop abbiati going despite the fact we are unable to do anything about it. Instead give the young kid bonnefoi a chance he looks like a decent goalkeeper and who knows may just end up being one. Weve certainly made mistakes in the past notably, isaakson, carini and morgan di sanctis. All three goalkeepers are well reknowned goalkeepers now with the isaakson and carini actually starting for their national teams. The last thing we want is to give bonefoi the same treatement and end up seeing him the next french goalkeeper.

Juve 'agree’ Antonioli deal Wednesday 5 April, 2006

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sampdoria 'keeper Francesco Antonioli is being tipped to join Italian champions Juventus at the end of the season.

Reports in Italy on Wednesday suggest that the Bianconeri have targeted the veteran, with some whispers claiming that a deal has already been done.

The 36-year-old will apparently move to the Stadio Delle Alpi on a free transfer for the 2006-07 campaign.

Antonioli, who won a Scudetto at Roma under the guidance of present Juve boss Fabio Capello, will be netted to become Gigi Buffon’s new understudy.

Juventus need to bring in cover for the Italian international given that Christian Abbiati will return to Milan at the end of the season.

Abbiati joined Juve on loan from the Rossoneri last summer following the shoulder injury sustained by Buffon.

His arrival subsequently shut the door on former No 2 Antonio Chimenti who later joined Cagliari in the January transfer window.

Antonioli, a former Italy international who was part of the Euro 2000 expedition, has vast experience at the top level.

He’s played in goal for the likes of Milan and Bologna in his career before he joined Doria in the summer of 2003.

Antonioli’s No 1 shirt at Marassi will now probably be handed down to former Italian Under-21 'keeper Luca Castellazzi, who currently sits on the bench in Genoa.
