Marco Verratti Will Join Milan

There's no evidence to back this up, but I believe that Marco Verratti will leave Paris to join AC Milan. Adriano Galliani always has a surprise in store every summer and August is usually the month when that happens. Earlier today at Milanello fans were chanting at Galliani:"Give us a gift!" to which he replied: "The gift will arrive." It doesn't sound like much, but this is a typical Milan hint of what will happen in the future. When Verratti was leaving Pescara last summer, Juventus were the leading Italian team to land him, but Milan had some slight interest too. When Verratti was 16 years old, he was just a signature away from joining Milan, but he decided to stay with Pescara as he felt that was his home.

Some people may say that Verratti is too expensive for Milan, but Milan do have the money. Galliani would never reveal how much money he has because then other clubs will try to get more out of him. Verratti's probable cost is around 30m euros as he has become an essential part to PSG's midfield.

Within the first week of August, expect to start hearing rumours swirl around of Galliani negotiating with PSG over Verratti. Milan's midfield will exponentially improve with him added alongside Montolivo, Poli, De Jong and Honda.
