As the attention of the world focuses on the FIFA World Cup that is set to begin in the next couple of hours, the transfer market is also experiencing its fare share of unorthodox yet exciting transfer rumours and deals that are expected to make the league very competitive in the new season.
After signing a two-year deal with Italian champions Inter Milan, Rafa Benitez has already stated that Liverpool players Javier Mascherano and Dirk Kuyt are primary for the Nerazzurri.
Capital club AS Roma are to set to sign Flamengo’s Brazilian striker Adriano later on this week. This becomes the league’s first big name signing this summer and it should open the door for Milan, Inter and Juventus to follow in their steps.
With Rafa Benitez about to take over as Inter Coach, life in Serie A especially for the big four is set to change drastically. I will add to the growing skepticism of the former Liverpool boss. After all the hard work Mourinho has done, Moratti should not dishonor the Nerazzurri faithful by hiring someone who’s last taste of success came 5 years ago which by the way was a fluke!
Les Merengues are prepared to make AS Roma midfielder Daniele De Rossi an offer he cannot refuse. The Italian national is part of Marcelo Lippi’s squad that will be travelling to South Africa for the World Cup that kicks-of in just under a week’s time..
It seems like Real have money to splash out because frankly,i do not think De rossi is worth the 10 million Euro annual wage Madrid are ready to pay. I have never been a fan of De Rossi and to be honest, i think he is one of the most overrated players.
With the European season coming to an end in dramatic fashion across Italy, Spain and France, attention now shifts to the biggest sporting event in the world. The FIFA World Cup scheduled to begin in about 23 days will for the first time be held in the Continent of Africa with South Africa having the pleasure of hosting this prestigious event.
The Serie A really had its fair share of nerve racking moments towards the end of the 2009/2010 campaign but Inter Milan managed to successfully defend their title amidst a stiff challenge from AS Roma. So which team offered the biggest surprise this season? Well, according to me, none. However, the Viola or Fiorentina were pretty impressive in the early stages of the campaign with Stefan Jovetic and Alberto Gilardino blending in well to create problems for many clubs.
Roma star Francesco Totti will be forced to sit out four Coppa Italia matches due to that brutal kick that he gave Mario Balotelli in the final. Roma went on to lose 1-0.
Totti lucked out in one Yank’s opinion and such a maneuver should warrant an instant suspension despite being done in a Cup rather than in league play. I realize that these Cups and the league are different and therefore have different rules, but when an act is done as blatant as Totti’s kick an instant suspension is the only way of truly showing the athlete that their behavior will not be tolerated.
After an entertaining 9 months of intense football action, the Serie A wraps up this weekend with what is undoubtedly the biggest game of them all. 17 time Italian Champions AC Milan host 27 time champions Juventus at the San Siro tomorrow.
While this encounter may not be as eagerly anticipated as past clashes, tomorrow’s game does however mean a lot to both clubs as they will be seeking to end their campaigns with a win.
Inter Milan won the Italian Cup, beating AS Roma 1-0 on Diego Milito’s 40th-minute goal, and boosted its chances of becoming the first Italian club to win a treble. It’s Inter’s sixth Italian Cup title and first since 2006 after losing two finals to Roma.
“We’ve won the first,” Milito said. “Now we’re waiting for the other two. This victory will give us even more motivation for the league against Chievo (this weekend).”
Inter faces Bayern Munich for the Champions League title on May 22 in Madrid and holds a two-point lead over AS Roma with two games remaining in Serie A.
With 3 games left to play defending champions Inter Milan are on course to win a record 5th successive scudetto this after their nearest challengers AS Roma succumbed to a 2-1 defeat to Sampdoria on Sunday. This should bring to an end a very entertaining season such like we have never seen in a long time. Milan, Roma and Juventus now have to lick their wounds and set their sights on the next season.
AS Roma have set up an enticing Coppa Italia final date with Inter Milan after beating Udinese 2-1 on aggregate. Although the Giallorosso lost 1-0 on Tuesday night at the Stadio Friuli, Udinese’s slender win was not enough to take them through to the final. Buy Coppa Italia Final Tickets
Roma went into this match on the back of a 2 goal lead from their first leg tie and considering their recent run of form, many expected them to win. However, Udinese had other plans on their mind.
I officially throw in the towel and concede that this season’s title race is between Roma and Inter. Milan have lost all sense of direction and it will be another season that they fail to collect any silverware. With rumours emerging that rookie coach Leonardo might be leaving the club at the end of the season to take up a back room position in the Brazilian national team, the Rossoneri need to start strategising for the new season.
