skintsaint Posted 10 January, 2013 Share Posted 10 January, 2013 According to tuttocalciomercato Claudio Vigorelli which is astori agent i think is in england,to discuss a important offer from southampton, but says he would prefer a move to milan but there is offer on the table of milan yet. I thought personal terms were sorted and we were just negotiating the fee with his club? Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkish Posted 10 January, 2013 Share Posted 10 January, 2013 Need the Don to do a cracking sales job, and Gaston to phone him and and tell him (again) about the English vag. Sell the dream boys, sell the dream..... I can imagine their tour of Southampton to sell him the city will begin with lunch at Nicks restruant. Followed by a a walk around Mayflower Park where he might be lucky to catch a glimpse of some tourists setting sail one of the many wonderfuls ships to visit the port. They'll discuss contract terms as they walk past the Quays into West Quay, where Cortese will point out the wonderful shopping in high fashion outles such as Hollister, Republic and USC. They will take the lift in John Lewis which provides a panoramic view of Mamas and Papas before a lesuirely walk past the fining dining available at TJI Fridays and Frankie and Bennies where they will arrive at Oceana just in time for happy hour where they will down 2 for 1 cocktails before sealing the deal.

Window Cleaner Posted 11 January, 2013 Share Posted 11 January, 2013 Noticed an Independent Interview with Nige from about the end of December. Here's an extract, sorry if it's already been posted Adkins would not be drawn on whether he would make another move for the England goalkeeper and was similarly coy when asked about reports linking Southampton with Cagliari defender Davide Astori. "I am aware of him, I know he is a good centre-half," Adkins said of the Italy international. "We haven't put a bid in as far as I am aware and I don't think we've made any enquiries about him. "You've asked me if I know about him and I know about him. We've got a very good European scouting network now. "There are lots of players that we talk about, we are aware of, we scout but it doesn't mean we're going to buy them or make any inquiries. "You need to be aware of them and that is something we have developed a lot over the last 12 months. "Paul Mitchell has come in as head of recruitment from that point of view and it is something we've improved a hell of a lot of. "We have a lot more contacts, a lot more of contacts we can ask, which is important." PA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Charlie Posted 11 January, 2013 Share Posted 11 January, 2013 (edited) This ain't gonna happen is it (( Who knows - NA didn't deny it at all in his interview yesterday. Clearly an interest is there from us and there is a deal to be done. The issue is that also Milan seem to be keen, and they are a big club! I could fully understand the player wanting to see who comes in for him before deciding, its a big move for him approaching the peak of his career.

Window Cleaner Posted 11 January, 2013 Share Posted 11 January, 2013 (edited) This looks increasingly unlikely I fear. I don't know, I could see him making his debut at home to Citeh.

Lallana's Left Peg Posted 11 January, 2013 Share Posted 11 January, 2013 Apparently Milan have rejected a 10m Euro bid for Abate from Zenit and have instead demanded 15m Euros. It was suggested that moving out Abate was the deal that would give Milan the finances to fund purchasing Astori. So potentially sounds positive for us and for Cortese playing the waiting game...

There are also agents of Davide Santon and Davide Astori, at the Hilton Hotel. This is Claudio Vigorelli and Renzo Contract met the Cagliari for the sale of Defender. Cellino resists and does not spring, but Milan, Naples and Southampton press for Astori. For Santon in Milan, on the other hand, if you talk about in the coming days: Newcastle would at least 8 million. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Charlie Posted 12 January, 2013 Share Posted 12 January, 2013 Still a lot of chat about AC Milan from Italian Journos but surely they would have just gone straight in for him if they really wanted him? Disagree with people saying we will put a time limit on it. He seems to be our top target so whilst there is a chance we will stay in the hunt IMO and NA was coy when asked about him on Thursday. We do need two CBs though I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
