Reports in the Brazilian media suggest that AC Milan
will swoop for Porto Alegre teenage sensation Pato Alexandre if
they fail in their bid to prise Sameul Etoo away from
Barcelona.
Those arent just rumours, Milan are formally interested in my
player, said his agent Gilmat Veloz, who recently went on record
as stating that Chelsea are already working hard to close a deal
for the Brazil U-20 star.
Despite only being 17, Pato has seen his international profile make
a dramatic rise of late due to being linked with big money moves to
European heavyweights the likes of Chelsea or Inter.
The latter are even rumoured to have offered 5 of his relatives a
job in Italy in a bid to secure the prodigious talents of the
player nicknamed the new Kaka.
Milan would be able to serve up a tantalising deal sweetener of
their own, in that Pato could look forward to teaming up with his
boyhood idol: the real Kaka!
