Looks like a quality player. Hopefully he does well.

Sulley Muntari, Urby Emanuelson and Robinho have all departed the San Siro this week.


Robinho, 29, left for France on Tuesday after agreeing a contract with recently promoted Ligue 1 side AS Monaco. The newly rich team signed the Brazilian for £9.75 million. The winger, who joined Milan from Manchester City for £15.5 million in 2010, was taking up £71k of the wage budget whilst at the San Siro. The fans are reportedly saddened by his departure, but felt that his age played a big part in seeing him go.


Urby Emanuelson had a few solid seasons for AC Milan, after joining from Ajax in 2010 for £2.2 million. After new Milan manager Alessandro Nesta put him up for sale, a total of four clubs sent in bids for the winger, including former club Ajax. However, three of the offers were rejected, and instead, Emanuelson signed for Ligue 1 side LOSC Lille for a fee of £4.2 million. He and Robinho were pictured at Malpensa Airport in Milan before they left.


The third and latest departure of the window so far saw Ghana international Sulley Muntari make way for Portugal, where he met with representatives of Benfica to agree a contract. He will travel to Ghana before moving officially to Portugal, to attend a charity event held in his name. The move came after he was told by Nesta that he would not feature in the first team this season. AC Milan officials have stated that no transfer request was received, and that the player left on good terms. Benfica paid around £4.7 million to acquire his services.
Nice update, sad to see some of 'em leave - 'specially Muntari. Always had a soft spot for him for some reason. :P
All Black! RACIST!
Just kidding Adam, loving this so far, just promise me you'll stick with it :P
Really good write up man. Hopefully you made the right move.
That should save a few extra Euros :)



Miralem Pjanić has signed a five year contract with AC Milan worth around £19 million.


The Bosnian playmaker has officially completed his transfer from Milan's title chasing rivals, AS Roma, for a fee of £17.25 million. However, with clauses involved in the transfer, this could rise to £19 million. The 23 year old has been described as an "old-fashioned playmaker with huge technical qualities." Some fans at the San Siro are slightly concerned at the large fee involved, but the general feeling is that Nesta has signed a quality player. He was linked to Manchester United earlier in the window, but David Moyes did not make a bid for the player.


In other news from the San Siro, Filippo Galli, Head of Youth Development at AC Milan, has failed in an attempt to sign 19 year old centre back Daniele Rugani, who opted to sign a contract with Manchester United instead. Empoli were paid £800k to part with the youngster.
Great signing! Sure he'll be a great player for you.
Nice marquee signing! Pjanic is a don
Great signing! I am sure Pjanic will do fantastic for you.

Pre-season 2013-2014



After it was announced last month that AC Milan legend Alessandro Nesta would be taking over from the recently fired Massamiliano Allegri, Milan fans were full of optimism and uncertainty over Nesta's ability. They finally got a chance to see what he had to offer the team this month, with the club playing six friendly matches. Nesta was given the chance to play new signings Miralem Pjanić and Martin Montoya, while the fans could get excited about seeing the new men in action.

AC Milan have agreed terms to sign Rubin Kazan midfielder Bibras Natkho on a free transfer. The player will join in January.


After signing for Rubin back in 2010 from Hapoel Tel-Aviv for a fee of £550k, Natkho has been a key player for the Russian outfit, making 85 league appearances for the club. The Israeli told Russian press of his excitement about joining a club of Milan's stature, and that he hoped he could prove himself at the higher level when he arrives on the 1st of January. AC Milan actually had a chance to pay a fee to Rubin Kazan in order to have his service immediately, but instead refused, instead opting to put the money into the recently completed transfer of Miralem Pjanić.
Holy damn you got Pjanic ! :D Just caught up with this story mate, good luck with AC Milan! :) Always liked them more than Inter Milan for some reason haha, I'm sure you're going to do well :D
Pjanic is a player that I've never used on FM but he looks awesome, Roma do have pretty awesome midfielders.
