  • Milan apparently had the opportunity to sell Gilardino and replace him with one of the world's best strikers.



    "Milan had taken the difficult decision to sell Gilardino and replace him with a first-class striker," Damiani had said.



    "Then they changed their mind and decided to keep faith with Gilardino, rather than choose between either Toni, Van Nistelrooy or Trezeguet, of which positive contact had already been made."
