Samuel Eto'o has admitted his admiration for Milan, amid
speculation the Serie A club are ready to firm up their
interest.
Eto'o has continually maintained that he wants to remain at
Barcelona, but the signing of Thierry Henry this summer has led to
further speculation that he would be sold.
Reports in Italy suggest Milan could make an offer of up to
50million (£33.7million) for the Cameroonian star.
"Milan is a great team, a club that is known around the world, who
have just won the Champions League," he is quoted in Gazzetta dello
Sport.
"I am proud to be considered a target by them but, for now, I am
happy where I am.
"The amount of money is something for the club to think about. For
me, the figures will never change my plans. As for Barcelona, I do
not know."
It is claimed that Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani is set to
travel to Catalunya to try and secure a deal for Eto'o in the
coming days.
Milan are also maintaining an interest in former star Andrei
Shevchenko, who could be available from Chelsea.
