AC Milan set to make move for Eto'o
AC Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani admitted on Tuesday that
Barcelona striker Samuel Eto'o is top of their shopping list this
summer.
"We will wait until the end of the Spanish championship before
asking Real and Barcelona if they are willing to sell certain
players," Galliani told Milan Channel, the club's in-house
television station.
"We will ask Barcelona about Eto'o, but we don't know if he is for
sale."
In addition to the dynamic Cameroon international, the
recently-crowned Champions League winners are also believed to be
chasing Real Madrid's Brazilian midfielder Emerson, who spent
several seasons in Serie A with Roma and Juventus.
Eto'o, 26, is one of the deadliest strikers in the world and was
named African Footballer of the Year in 2003, 2004, and 2005.
Feared by defenders because of his quick pace and clinical
finishing, Eto'o joined Barcelona from Real Mallorca in 2004 and
helped them win the Champions League last year.
