Real Zaragoza [Segunda]

[kyan]

He could definitely become a part of the United setup eventually, but probably not next year, another season's loan maybe?

I don't want to lose this guy, very very good defender.

[Pat Murphy]

Another season loan would be perfect for Zaragoza as they probably won't have enough money to buy Diogo (£3m), D'allesandro, the rest of D.Milito and Pique in the same season.

You should contact them and tell them this

Aren't the Milito brothers going Barce, Barce need a hold up striker.

[Pat Murphy]

Barca will probably get a CB and backup striker for next season. They're aiming for Chivu, G.Milito and a few others for CB and Palacio, Klose or D.Milito for striker. It's anyones guess who Barca will actually get.

Andres D'Alessandro has finally ended his ill-fated spell at Wolfsburg and completed his move to Spanish outfit Real Zaragoza, The Wolves confirmed on Friday.

Four years ago Wolfsburg paid a club record €9million (£6.1million) for the talented midfielder, who never really adjusted to life in the Bundesliga.

In 2006 D'Alessandro spent six months with Portsmouth, and Wolfsburg subsequently decided to loan him to Zaragoza, where he lately rediscovered the fine form which once made him a regular international for Argentina.

The Spaniards did not use their €5million (£3.4million) buy-out option however, and, with a new round of negotiations starting between the two clubs, the German press has reported that The Wolves had no choice but to accept Zaragoza's €3million (£2million) bid for the player.

D'Alessandro had two years left on his contract at the Volkswagen-Arena.

He's a steal at £2million

[Pat Murphy]

I'm not sure why Wolfsburg had "no choice" but to accept £2m but it's definately much cheaper than I thought he'd cost Zaragoza.

They've already signed Diogo for £3m so I think they will try to sign 100% of Diego Miltio now and also try and buy Pique outright. Problem is they probably won't have any money for new players so will have to do loans again.

Gabriel Milito is pining for a move to Juventus and his agent is hopeful a deal can be struck.

Eduardo Gamarnik was in Zaragoza on Tuesday for talks with president Agipato Iglesias over an offer that Juve have made.

Spanish daily AS claim that an agreement has been established which will see the Italians pay £14 million immediately and £1 million depending on the player’s appearances and success.

"Gabriel has fulfilled a cycle in Zaragoza and his position already is definitive: one leaves, leaves for Juventus," said Gamarnik.

"Juve are in a big hurry to close the operation. We have been talking for a long time.

"In a week or ten days it must be resolved. I insist on which Gabriel has fulfilled a cycle and wants to leave for Juventus."

Milito is said to be one of Juve’s main objectives as they look to make a competitive return to Serie A.

The Argentine has been a defensive linchpin for Zaragoza and any move would see him part with his brother Diego who has been in prolific form this season.

Goal.com - Juventus - Milito Juve Bound, Suggests Agent

[azzurri]

Im surprised we beat competition from CL teams. Hopefully its announced next week.

[Mighty T.A.L.]

Shame.I really hoped Rafa to capture him this summer.

[Reyes]

Hmmm i wanted madrid to grab him and his brother, but nevermind. I am slightly confused didn't he say he wouldn't move without his brother?

[Pat Murphy]

Well I think there is a chance that Diego will return to Italy as Genoa still own part of him but that's unlikely. I think Juve is a step up for Gaby that he couldn't turn down.

Zaragoza net Oliveira - Report

Radio Marca are claiming that Real Zaragoza have reached an agreement to sign Ricardo Oliveira from Milan.

Ricardo Oliveira's adventure with Milan is at an end.

The Brazilian does not feature any more in the Rossoneri's plans, and will return to Spain after just one season in Italy.

Reports from Italy suggest various clubs from Spain are interested in signing him, with Villarreal and Real Zaragoza leading the race.

However, Radio Marca are claiming that Zaragoza have already won the race, having reached an agreement with the Milan bosses.

Oliveira had caught the eye of the Milan scouts in the past season, following two impressive years with Real Betis, where he scored 27 goals from 46 matches played.

However, the Brazilian player failed to live up to the expectations as his lack of goals cost Milan important points in the early part of the season.

Time in Milan was a bit of a disaster. I didn't understand why Milan bought a player for £10m when he had spent the previous season out for 6 months. He was awesome in his first season at Betis tho and got about 23 goals.

At Zaragoza he'll probably partner Diego Milito. At the moment they have Sergio Garcia who is his partner but all Sergio Garcia does goes into setting up others as he was their top assister last season with 6. Oliveira can create for others and be a deadly goalscorer, I think him and Milito partnership could be great.

[Pennywise]

Saragossa are so good to bring in right players for their style. If they can fix their stability next season, things will look great.

Real Zaragoza have signed defender Francisco Pavon from Real Madrid on a free transfer.

The 27-year-old has put pen-to-paper on a four-year deal at the Estadio La Romareda.

Pavon's current contract with the Spanish giants expired at the end of last season and he was not offered a new deal at the Bernabeu.

The defender, who was linked with a move to Bolton in April, made 162 appearances for Madrid and was a product of the club's youth policy.
