No walk on the Bridge for Pirlo

AC Milan have proven that they're not playing around when it comes to Pirlo. Milan owner Silvio Berlusconi has told Chelsea that the star midfielder will finish his career at the San Siro. Although Pirlo, 30, is only under contract until 2012, so i really don't think he'll be finishing Milan, but anyway.....
Owner Berlusconi had talks with manager Leonardo and VP Galliani to decide on Pirlo's future.

He said: "Andrea Pirlo has been taken off the market. He will stay with us and finish his career at Milan.
"You know that Andrea Pirlo was wanted by Chelsea with a suitable economic offer.
"We also talked with the player and we decided to accept Leonardo's request to keep Pirlo."


Even with Pirlo staying Milan will not win the Serie A title this year. Ronaldinho, Pato, Pirlo, Gattuso and co will not be good enough to lift the Seriea title next may.

Pirlo stays at Milan

AC Milan have rejected a seven million pound bid from Chelsea for Andrea Pirlo. Basically Milan's vice president Galliani told former Milan manager (now Chelsea manager) Ancelotti to take a hike because the offer was too low for Galliani's liking.

Galliani said'The offer of seven million pounds plus Claudio Pizarro is not satisfactory...under these conditions Pirlo is not for sale,'Galliani told Sky Sport Italia.

So what Galliani's really saying is........give us another 56 million and he's yours. And they still won't win Lo Scudetto.
