Milan start Crespo talks
Hernan Crespo could be on the verge of leaving Chelsea for Milan, according to reports in Italy.
Rossoneri director general Ariedo Braida is believed to have met with the player’s agent yesterday to discuss a possible
move.
Chelsea are understood to be willing to sell and the Argentine could resolve Milan’s missing fourth striker problem.
The Italian champions are looking for a new forward to add to their squad of Andriy Shevchenko, Pippo Inzaghi and Jon
Dahl Tomasson.
Although Crespo - who failed to turn up for a meeting with new boss Jose Mourinho - has claimed he is ready to stay in
England, the Italian media are convinced that is not the case.
Especially as the departure of Roque Junior yesterday freed up a non-EU space in the Milan squad.
The only possible problem that could halt the transfer at the moment is Crespo’s salary demands.
The former Parma, Lazio and Inter ace currently nets around £3.5m a season at Stamford Bridge.
Milan have no intention of matching that amount and are hopeful that the 29-year-old can be convinced to accept
around £2.2m.
