Wow, what a final day in the transfer market for Serie A clubs. AC Milan added to an already excellent mercato by signing up Brazilian forward Robinho, aged 26, for around 18 million euros. The forward, who led Brazil at this summers world cup, has considerable talent and will add yet another dimension to what looks like a formidable attack. Pato, Ibrahimovic, Ronaldinho and now Robinho. Thats not to mention Pippo Inzaghi who still is goal hungry. With Sokratis, Marco Amelia and Kevin Prince Boateng also arriving in Milan it is not hard to understand why there is a strong smell of optimism in the AC camp this season.
To fund these outstanding arrivals however something had to given, and Klass Jan Huntelaar finds himself on a way way ticket to Germany to join Schalke 04, and will find champions League football on offer there as well. Marco Boriello also makes way at the San Siro as he leaves for Roma as the capital club strenghtern their attack.
Elsewhere Genoa signed Milan defender Kakha Kaladze to take their spending to around 41 million for the summer while Parma added to their superb level of creativity with Antonio Candreva leaving from Udinese to join up with Seba Giovinco. Several of the relegation candidates also strengthened as well with Brescia signing Jonathan Zebina while Cesena added some creative impetus with the arrival of Luis Jimenez, finally released from his nightmare with Ternana.
Juventus also had something further to say in this mercato with Mauro Camoranesi moving to Stuttgart in Germany while defenders Leandro Rinaudo, from Napoli, and Armand Traore, from Arsenal, arriving in Turin. For rivals and European Champions Inter Milan however there was no last minute big hit transfer. Whether they will be tempted to add anyone new in January however remains to be seen.
