Yes I know and I have considered that. I may very well be wrong but I feel that Cassano would turn down big money moves to Real, Chelsea and Inter in order to be reunited with Capello. As I said, I could be wrong, but that's my opinion so I would be more than glad to wait a year before signing Cassano, that way we can keep Chiellini, Balzaretti, Mutu, Del Piero and get Cassano. Plus, if Casso comes next season we'd have a couple of months to get rid of DP, if he comes now we're stuck with Casso AND Alex, both of whom will have very high wages.
