Rossenero

There has been much speculation over the player’s future and reports in Italy have suggested that the Frenchman was a prime target for Juventus.

However, it seems as if the Bianconeri have been beaten to the line to sign Flamini by Milan following a a news report by Sky Sport Italia. The 24-year-old has refused to pen a new deal with the Gunners and it is believed that he was not happy with the package which was offered.

The player will arrive in July on a free transfer and Milan have presented him with a better deal. Flamini will be earning €5.6 million per season over a four year period.

Arsene Wenger was confident of keeping the player on at the Emirates but it now seems impossible.

“If it was down to just football then Flamini would stay, however it does not depend only on that,” said Wenger.

Milan need reinforcements for next season, especially if they are to mount a serious bid for the title as well as the Champions League.
