Preziosi issues hands-off warning
Friday 2 January, 2009

Genoa chief Enrico Preziosi has told Inter that Diego Milito won't be relocating to San Siro.

Milito was one of the signings of the summer and his second spell with Genoa has begun in emphatic fashion.

There have been rumours that Inter may try and lure Milito during the winter transfer window, but while Preziosi admits there has been contact he insists no move is possible.

“There has been contact between Inter director Marco Branca and our sporting director,” the Rossoblu President told La Gazzetta dello Sport.

“But I have already advised Branca not to enter into negotiations. It's not happening and we aren't even wiling to discuss it.

“I paid £10m to get Milito last summer and I wouldn't be persuaded to change my mind, even if I was given a £20m offer.

“I will not be swayed by loan deals either because they wouldn't be of any use to us.

“That doesn't mean that I don't rate Mario Balotelli because I like him a lot. If anything I would like to see him partner Milito and if Inter want to negotiate I'm willing, as long as they don't ask for Diego.”
