AC Milan are ready to use striker Alberto Gilardino to clinch the signing of Fiorentina goalkeeper Sebastien Frey.

Corriere della Sera says Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti has lost all confidence in current No1 Dida and club directors are actively seeking a long-term replacement for the Brazilian.

Artur Boruc, who has just signed a new deal with Celtic, and Frey are Milan's top two targets.

The Rossoneri hope to convince Fiorentina to part with Frey by including Gilardino in their offer. Fiorentina coach Cesare Prandelli worked with Gilardino at Parma and has spoken openly about the prospect of calling on him again in Florence.


Surprise move by Milan, thought Gilardino was their best striker!
Must be a graeat Goalie FREY....

I started to loose faith in Dida after that incident where he got slapped in the face by a fan. I thought Gilardino wanted to move to Juventus at some point, but in my opinion I didn't avtually really want him on the team; he isn't that much of a great player. :/

Well I watched Gilardino v Celtic and he was really poor jst thought that he had a bad game. Is he playing well?/ He doesn't look interested.

a overrated player

Whic player?
