First it was Milan’s Dida who called it quits after 10 years with the Rossoneri, now Italian and Inter Milan goalie Francesco Toldo has decided to follow in his one time fierce rival’s footsteps.
Toldo retired as Inter keeper earlier this week after more than 20 years in the game. Ironically, Toldo begun his career with Inter’s arch rivals AC Milan back in 1987 as a youth before moving onto a series of clubs .
Inter Milan’s Dutch midfielder Wesley Sneijder might be setting himself up for a mighty fall. Sneijder denied calling Dunga and Maradona-two of the biggest high profile coaches at this year’s tournament- idiots and simply said that he was misunderstood.
Sneijder is currently enjoying superb form this year and this might be the reason for his overconfidence. However, there is no denying that the Dutchman is a very talented player.
Scoring crucial goals that made it possible for the Netherlands to make it through to this stage of the event, Sneijder is one fo th players shortlisted for the coveted player of the year award.
After having such a glorious year at club level, helping Inter Milan winning the treble last season, Dutch midfielder, Wesley Sneijder looks ready to lead his country for a World Cup glory in South Africa. This fine showing for both country and club have eventually set the midfielder as a top candidate to win the upcoming best player award, the new FIFA-Ballon d’Or, which recently has been combined into one award.
The 2010 World Cup has been the stage for some players to achieve higher stardom status and getting more interest from other clubs, that pretty much what happens to Bayern Muenchen’s midfielder, Bastian Schweinsteiger. After another exciting performance in South Africa, Schweinsteigger has once again attract the interest of two Milan clubs, Ac Milan and Inter Milan, who if my memories are correct have also set eyes couple of years back right after the 2006 WC.
Last season wasn’t all glorious and fun for Mario Balotelli as he has had such a troubling time with Inter Milan after his fall out with the fans and some of Inter players, this fact has pretty much caused many speculation regarding his future at the club. Although the arrival of new coach could give Balo a chance to restart everything once again, it seems that the Nerazzuri’s fans and management staff cant really tolerate his unpredictable behavior for another season as the club’s president, Massimo Moratti, has recently stated that the young striker could be leaving next summer.
“We’ll listen to offers for Mario Balotelli. This team is strong and can repeat its success, even without Balotelli and Maicon.” Moratti said to the press, “We will not abandon any type of negotiation and won’t slam the phone down on anyone,” added the President.”
I wrote earlier that the Real Madrid v LA Galaxy game replaces the Galaxy v Inter Milan game for that same day. But it did not take Inter Milan long to find another opponent for its North American tour announcing that they will play Panathinaikos at the Rogers Centre in Toronto on Tuesday August 3rd, 2010 at 8:00 PM.

The game is being billed as at Clash of Champions as Inter are the 2010 Champions League, Scudetto and Coppa Italia winners while Panathinaikos won the 2010 Greek Super League and Greek Cup.
It’s no secret that the possibilities of Inter Milan keeping Douglas Maicon next season are very slim as the players himself has already revealed his wish to play for Real Madrid next season. However, despite ready to part ways with the Brazilian international, it seems that Inter doesn’t want to loose one of their best player without getting something rewarding. Report said that due to the persistence of both parties in setting up their offer, Inter have offered another solution to reduce the gap between Madrid’s offer and Inter’s demand which is by asking a player from Los Blancos.
Palermo players Simon Kjaer and Edinson Cavani are set to join EPL outfit Tottenham Hotspurs after Palermo President Maurizio Zamparini accepted a combined bid worth 28 million Pounds.
It seems like Cavani may not see his dream of playing for treble holders Inter Milan come to pass. Having stated earlier that he would love to stay in Italy and play for the Nerazzurri, Cavani will be heartbroken to learn of his fate.
Cavani is currently on international duty with the Uruguayan national team in South Africa. According to Zamparini, the ‘deal was too good to refuse’. Palermo had a decent Serie A campaign in 2009/2010 to end the season in 5th place.
After rumors about the possibilities of loosing one of their best players, Douglas Maicon, emerged from the media, it looks like Inter Milan is already preparing life without the Brazilian International. Although theres haven’t been any agreement reached by both Real Madrid and Inter regarding the possible transfer, the media in Spain in Italy believe it will only a matter of time before the deal is struck and as a step forward the Italian giant reportedly has line up a replacement for the 29-years-old right back.
