AC Milan have not yet let go of the idea of signing Virgil van Dijk, with Zlatan Ibrahimovic strongly endorsing the move.
In the past few days there have been a number of stories regarding the possibility of Milan moving for Liverpool’s captain Van Dijk, as unlikely as it seems given his contract situation and how much importance he has at the Anfield club.

Nevertheless, the talk will not go away and there have even been claims that the Dutchman would consider the move as he reaches the end of his illustrious career. There has been speculation that owner Gerry Cardinale is tempted by the idea of landing such a big name.
Luca Bianchin – a journalist for La Gazzetta dello Sport – spoke to MilanVibes about the idea of the former Celtic man joining Milan.
“I’d summarise the situation in two points. The first is that Ibrahimovic has always considered the Dutch defender ideal for strengthening Milan’s defence,” he began (via MilanNews).
“The second is that the dossier has actually arrived on Cardinale’s desk, and we’ll have to figure it out. This doesn’t mean Van Dijk will join the Rossoneri, but it’s an idea Ibra has reiterated several times. It certainly is and has been a thought.
“There are various issues to address, from his contract to his salary and more. At the moment, there have been no contacts with his entourage or Liverpool themselves.”

Can you stop spam posting please. It’s more than enough for most to see it once.
On the article, we have more chance of getting Baresi in the team.
I will do my best but I have already asked you something before this, respect my wishes 😀
These are the types of profiles required for younger players and for imparting mentality on to the team. The problem I think would be relying on him to play many games. He is getting up there in age. And also the price might be a sticking point. If we can somehow get him on the “cheap” I wouldn’t mind this deal at all. Have a experienced players in all 3 outfield departments
His wage could be somewhat of an issue as well.
Isn’t that what Modric was supposed to do?
Well yes for the midfield. For defence I wouldn’t mind him. I don’t think it would hurt. There are no elder statesman and Virgil is more outspoken than Modric.
Ibra out …..
Liverpool doesn’t want to sell
He’s 36
He will probably don’t want to come
And Ibra doesn’t Lead anything
He is 35.
Even past his best, he is better than what Milan has.
no thanks
only if the same as Kjaer deal, w/ 40m (Liverpool price tag) we can get experienced & ready serie A player who’s not that old (Scalvini, Idzes etc)
or try (loan to buy) Leoni
