AC Milan appear to have given up their chase of the Arsenal striker Emmanuel Adebayor after the club's president admitted that they cannot afford the money that the Gunners are demanding for the player.

Ardriano Galliani has confessed that the low money in Italian football doesn't allow Milan and other clubs to spend as much money as the likes of FC Barcelona and Chelsea can.

This is what Galliani said about the situation pertaining to Arsenal and the Togo international:

“Adebayor is overridden by continuous requests for €45 million (£35.6 million), these figures are impossible for clubs in Italy.”

The Milan vice-president though is quite confident that they can import Ronaldinho from FC Barcelona.
