Good morning my friends. Are you having a beautiful sunny Sunday? Here are the front pages from Italy main Sports newspapers La Gazzetta dello Sport, Corriere dello Sport, and Tutto Sport from Sunday 12 July 2015.
Mamma mia, what a madness with the ongoing Serie A transfer market news. It seems the priority now is who will sign forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic currently contested by AC Milan and Inter! Why the big fuzz? Hello, you got to be kidding. Ibrahimovic known as “Mr Scudetto” would be the biggest signing for any of the 2 Milan teams looking to rebuild their respective teams to be back to the Champions League! In the meantime, Inter coach Roberto Mancini praising Ibrahimovic as “indirectly” wanting him to choose Inter…
For the moment, latest domino effect and the one sacrificed is forward Stephan El Shaarawy going to Monaco. Yep… with his selling, money now flowing to get defender Romagnoli and AS Roma can press now to get Dzeko…
Another big “tormentone,” is the uncertainly about Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba whether he is staying or not. Reportedly, Pogba’s agent Raiola is talking with diferent European clubs considering offers while Juventus are in anxiety…. the next 2 weeks will be crucial.
One headline making me happy is the contract renewing of Torino Coach Giampiero Ventura until 2017. Ventura has been doing a great job with Torino and giving him continuity is just excellent!

It’s a good start for AC Milan coach Sinisa Mihahlovic testing the “waters.” Milan playing their first pre-season on Friday 10 July 2015 against Alcione at the Chinetti Stadium in Solbiate Arno.
Surely, a scary moment for Milan as it is Alcione to take the lead in the 4th minute! Yep, surprise, surprise… Gennarelli scoring the opening goal after a counter attack leaving goalkeeper Christian Abbiati as wondering how did this happen! Short illusion for Alcione because it was their only goal of the match.
AC Milan reacting to the surprising goal and won the game with a smacking 5-1. The equalizer goal was by midfielder Nigel De Jong converting a penalty. The party started as midfielder Andrea Poli broke the draw for the 2-1 and you bet Mihajlovic could find his smile back to see his new team reacting well.
Ok, let’s not be over excited as this is only a pre-season.. but for Mihajlovic is a way to form his new AC Milan to rebuild it.
Official formations – lineups
AC MILAN: Abbiati; Abate, Zaccardo, Albertazzi, Calabria; Poli, De Jong, Pessina; Locatelli; Cerci, Mastour.
