Aquilani's agent : "Situation will be solved on wednesday or thursday"

The wrung words from Alberto Aquilani - "Yes, I am close to Milan" - yesterday evening at the "Golf Resort Argentario " Porto Empedocles, have probably put an end to one of the longest soap opera in the history of transfers summer.

The Roman boy, who played for Juventus in the course of last season, have returned to Liverpool in June - following the failure to reach agreement between the parties to stay in Juventus.

But Liverpool for Aquilani was only a stage of transition, as the boy did not fit - and it was not a mystery - in the technical and tactical plans of the coach of the "reds" of Anfield Road.

The priority of the player was to find a high-level Italian club, who gave him not only to remain at home, but also the emotions of the Champions League night's.

To confirm this hypothese of the market has intervened in an exclusive interview for ilsussidiario.net,Franco Zavaglia - Aquilani agent - who initially in the past spoke of "an operation in which there is little concrete", but then, pressed Milan assumption, has actually admitted as "the parties are working on the deal and, between Wednesday and Thursday, will decide everything."

In short, the hypothesis to see Aquilani with the jersey of champions of Italy seems anything but remote, and indeed seems to be a deal in the pipeline.

The departure of Pirlo - in the beginning of the market - had led AC Milan early on to seek a replacement, a search that was more complex than expected and that has fed, including confirmations and denials, called legend of Rossoneri "Mister X".

Now it seems that the X can be set aside and acknowledge that with midfielder Mr.Alberto Aquilani will be a short at the disposal of Allegri.

But the market may not stop here, because in recent years,in the market Via Turati entourage has reserved the best shots for the last days of August.

Last year came Ibrahimovic right to the wire, this year there is still time to score another resounding blow.

The possible and probable port of Roma boy in Milan immediately opens other market scenarios and makes the hypothesis of a departure of Flamini - to get the Tottenham's Crouch- no longer seem so futuristic.

Insufficient ten days at the end of the summer market, but for an executive such as Adriano Galliani - who snatched Ibrahimovic to Barcelona in a few hours - the ability to excite the Rossoneri fans are really still endless.

Aquilani is just the first shot. Expect surprises.
