Mijatovic Discusses Kaka, Robben, Saviola, Milito, And
Others
Real Madrid sporting director Pedja Mijatovic spoke to Madrid based
dailies Marca and AS about his plans for the summer.
"Then the players will arrive. We have already closed some deals
and others are in the works, but I am realising that we are
building a team that will win."
The former Madrid striker also hited that it would be a team with
young players.
"We want young people. If it comes to 30-year old veterans and a
24-years old, I'd stick with the latter. However, I'm not planning
on seeing ten players come and eight leave every year."
He then went on to speak about particular targets, admitting that
the likes of Robben, Alves, Saviola and Milito were on his
agenda.
Kaka
"It's not impossible because nothing is impossible, but we can't
plan the future of Real Madrid around Kaka because getting him out
of [Italy] is difficult."
Robben
"He is out of this world. He's a footballer that we've had our eye
on since last year. He's a very interesting, top-notch
player."
Alves
"He is a complete player. I like him a lot, but we have to
determine whether he's a priority or not."
Saviola
"He has a contract until 30 June. He's a fantastic player and we're
not ruling him out by any means."
Toldo
"He is a great goalkeeer and a veteran, and he's someone were
thinking about."
Drenthe
"He's one of the players of the future. I am sure many teams are
after him. We have been since last season."
Chivu
"He's a footballer we really like and have an interest in, but
we're not in the fight. We know other teams have a better chance
than we do, and that's why we're exploring other options."
Metzelder
"Metzelder has been signed. He's a great player with lots of
experience and he will be an important reinforcement for the
defence."
Gabi Milito
"He's a very talented player with lots of character, and he's
another alternative."
